As for getting it ready grease it up oil the chains etc and read the manual. When baling with one you do need to drive almost as if your drunk as in go side to side over the windrows so as to fill the whole bale area or you can/will break things or bend the bars etc. [Reply]   [No Email]

What about the auto tie? It does not have any wiring exposed (I.E. a plug, etc.)   [Reply]  [No Email]

As for speed you do not want to go to slow or you get a bale the is extra heavy and very hard to put a bale spike in, learned that the hard way when I first got my 850 and could not lift the bales with my loader tractor due to how heavy they where. I now run in 3rd gear with my Oliver Super 88 and that is just about right for a nice bale. As for auto tie I can not help you with that the 850 does not have that   [Reply]  [No Email]

After you get the bale started you will also drive faster than square baling or the baler will grind up the hay faster than you feed it in. I use to run 4 MPH in windrows that barely fit under the front axle of the tractor. Gary   [Reply]  [No Email]
