Just bought a new john deere 458 round baler, first the net wrap wrapped around the rubber roller, loosen the bolts to take pressure off, net seems to feed through fine. Now the problem is, it won't cut the net wrap. Once i went, everything worked great, bale was full net wrap wrapped, kicked it out and went, then the wrap wouldn't cut on the next one.

Clean both net rolls with mineral spirits, then apply talc to the net roll. put the pressure back to factory specs.
Plan on fighting this battle every day you own the baler.

Then when you get bored of fighting the loosing battle, call in the contractor and let him fight the battle for you :D

Seriously, I expect the baler will kind of bed in after a number of bales, at which point it will be plain sailing until something else goes wrong.

If you keep having problems, maybe a phone call to your dealer is in order?
