Mark,if I remember correctly,the length of twine hanging out of twine tube is not adjustable.If twine tension is too high it will cause twine to be late starting on bale.It helps to not slam on brakes when amber light turns solid.Have you ever weighed any of your rd. bales? I can't understand why you didn't get any more sq's than you did out one rd. bale.Jim

No but I have a new Koyker 310 on a JD 4010 and I dumped half dozen bales the other day that the thing could hardly lift. These were accidents; measured 6.5 dia.....first bales; thought the previous owner had the machine set up....obviously didn't. Didn't have time to stop and fix it as rain was coming and wanted to get it rolled. Got her fixed now and set to 5.5.

On the 5.5 dia bales, I can lift the front end of a 52hp Ford 4600 off the ground with 2 front wheel weights bolted to the front bumper. So the 1500# number isn't that far off.

This is the first time that I had the opportunity to do a one on one comparison. I was really surprised also.

Thanks,

Mark
