I had mowed a total of about six acres in two places about two miles apart. Two of my driest fields to start the season with. The weather didn't cooperate real well, just as much clouds as sun but the air has been very dry. I held off on raking until about 1:30, then went to bale at about four. After hooking to baler, low hyd. press. light came on, revved up a little, it went out. Checked oil level to be sure. Went to first field, three times around I heard a chattering noise from baler then bang. Cleared the chamber, checked it all out, needles were in chamber, don't know why. Cycled twice no problem. Started to feed a little more hay, low hyd. press. light on again. Tractor (Ford 8240 16 speed electronic power shift) won't move. power steering works, PTO engages, lift will lift if I rev it enough. but not enough pressure apparently for clutches. Called friend, he will bale onto my wagons for me tomorrow. I'm hoping the problem is just a plugged filter, even though it's about 100 hours shy of time to change it. Ain't haying fun? :(
