Whats the rule with bale shape on old NH balers with the tine bar is it as follows?

Too much on left side (non cut side) move left tine forks over to the right.

Too much on the right (cut side) move the left tine forks over to the left end of tine bar some more.

My book says basicly the same thing.

Yes my books say the same.


Was having a discussion with someone yesterday and he was saying the oposite I think. Depends on what your calling left or right. I relate to the baler like you would be a sitting in a car regarding left and right sides.

He was telling me to put less materail on the left side (non cut) you move the left tine farther to the left. His reason was that if you move it more to the left when it comes down to grab hay it will be grabbing less hay in stead of more etc.

Yes, that right, but it does not all ways work out. So many things enter into it. Size of windrow, if you feed windrow in one side or other, speed etc. Usual is too much on cut side. Sharp knives help, especially with grass. Experment a little. The placment of the next set of teeth can have an effect too. They drop the hay where the first set can shove it on the next stroke.

My book mentions moving the back in and out for my 273. I don't have the book in front of me, but I think that you move the back ahead to fill the left side more.
