I took the baler out for the first time yesterday, it was pretty much a train wreck! The pickup plugged immediately, and several times thereafter. Getting a bale started was difficult, is this a matter of technique? The twine cutter failed to cut at all, I had to cut every one with a pocket knife. I was able to make even bales OK, but didn't pick up the windrow cleanly, I'm sure that was just me. I've got several bales with no twine because I made them too big and the baler wouldn't spin any more for wrapping.
I'm pretty sure most of the problem was me, am I just that stupid or is there a steep learning curve with these things? It seems like making this work requires quite a bit of operator skill, is that right? The twine not cutting has to be a mechanical issue, right?
Any thoughts would be appreciated, I'm pretty discouraged at this point.
