You done great for a first timer. The biggest trick to these old IH balers is criss cross that windrow right of the bat. Feed the outside edges and the middle will take care of its self. You might find in real dry hay that it won't feed through the steel roller in the throat. There is a kit you can get from IH that wraps the roller with a sand paper type material that helps a lot. The newer 2400 has a rubber roller in it to cure that trouble. They are fair machines and will last for years. It will not roll as tight as some newer rollers, but still a fairly good machine. There is also a extra spring kit that will make a tighter bale. Take good care of that big belt in the bottom, they cost about 600 bucks.
