I then attempted to grease the zerks on the baler and on the tractor. When I put in a new tube of grease the grease gun wouldn't work. After multiple attempts to figure out why, I quit. I have done this before numerous times with no problem. Why it wouldn't work now... no idea.
I started to bale the hay. I was on the sixth bale, and had baled two and a third rows, when I had a problem. The baler's intake rollers jammed. Also one large belt was loose as it appeared the bale didn't form all the way to one side. I had been zig-zagging to ensure hay was brought in side to side. I dumped the bale. The belt was snug again but the intake rollers were still jammed. Hay appeared to be stuck between the belt and rollers on one side. I pulled hay out but couldn't unjam the rollers before it got too dark to see well. I'll fix it tomorrow. I may have made some windrows too large for the speed I was driving to pick the hay up.
