Bruce this baler has auto wrap, it sounds a signal for me to stop when the twine arms drop and sounds it again once it's finished for me to dump the bale.
My old NH 640 also had auto wrap, I timed it once in a field making 4 bales pre acre, the field was slightly rough so I wasn't in my fastest baling gear and was making a bale in just under 2 1/2 minutes. Thinner hay requires more travel time.
I'm guessing the old baler turned a little slower because putting on the same 13 wraps of twine and dumping the bale took around 10 seconds longer than now, tale gate on this baler may be a little faster, same tractor.
Lots of folk here use net as well, I tried it once but it was one of those winters we had a lot of freezing rain, cutting net off of a frozen bales just wasn't for me, I'd rather spent a little more time wrapping twine and not have to mess with removing net in the winter.
I need to put up a few hundred small squares in the feed barn for weaning calves and some horse hay for a neighbor, plan to do that later this fall when it's cooler.
