    Did you change the bearings on the opposite side at the same time?

    vermeer 505 super i baler problem that i can't figure out.

    The only other thing I can think of is one or both of the circled bearings are worn. When the weight of the roll gets on these rollers they move causing the chain to get slack in it.

    Is the chain new? It looks like it is too long and the idler can't keep tension on the chain.

    Offset Rear Blade

    What in the world, (or other worldly) thing is this?

    It is Cedar Apple Rust. There are fungicides to control it. If you have apple trees it will cause spots on the leaves as well as the apples. It seems to stunt the growth of the fruit too.

    Squished Snake ID (Icky pic, Guts)

    Copperhead. He probably had eaten the mice and threw them up when he got injured. This one was in my chicken cage & had swallowed it up to its feet. When I touched the snake it started pushing the chicken back out & trying to get away.

    Tractor Sizing Is Powerstar 75 enough to round bale

    Baled this with a Kubota M6800 2wd & a Hesston 845 for about 10 years before I got a bigger tractor. Parts of it was so steep I couldn't bale across the hill because the bales would turn over. Could only bale uphill because the weight of the loaded baler would push me off the hill with the...
