I baled a lot of hay with a JD 116W baler and I don't remember any wire pieces being left in the bales. When tying the 2 wires were twisted and the cutters cut and kinked the wire to make a strong knot. Where do the pieces come from? We never had any hardware problems with it. I did lose a couple cows over 45 years to hardware chopping hay.
I rebuilt the tying mechanism in 1973. I went to the JD dealer and the parts guy said give him some time and he would try to get the parts. They came from South Dakota, Minnesota, and a couple other states. You did not bale the hay too wet because the bales were too heavy. Actually I did once and the wires rusted off in the center of the mow where the hay dropped from the forks. I pitched the few bales that were involved down to the cows the next week or two, so no problem.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
