Foxtail and Prowl 2018...

First “work around” post of course went into the wrong section... Here is is again...

Recently we clipped our fields and took with it most any foxtail heads, however 3 weeks later, there’s more foxtail than ever!

Anyone had real success using Prowl to control foxtail? What is your application schedule, ie early spring and after each cutting? Did you tank mix any other herbicides with it? What kind of residual does it have and if there’s a residual, how long does it last? Let’s say a second cut August first, are you going to be able to overseed in September?

Any devastating effects on Timothy?

Thanks!
Bill

JD 535, gate latches open too far

New to me via auction JD 535 round baler. So far I just have the operators manuals for it. Starting to go through all the grease points, adjustments, etc... The gate latches are way out of adjustment. The manual says no bigger than an 1/8th of inch gap. These appear to be pushing 1". Possibly related but I'm not getting a ready/gate latched light on the bale trak either. Although the gate closed sensors appear to be aligned correctly. I do plan on actually measuring them per the manual but just eyeballing them, they seem to be in the correct spot. The hydraulic cylinders on the rear for the door do appear to be closed all the way. 

 

Gate latches are both about this far

Artificial Intelligence Takes The Guesswork Out Of Weed And Disease ID

New holland 650 declutch

I recently purchas ed d a NH 650 with 8k bales thru it. I just finished my first 70 rolls and wanted to see what I was doing wrong. When I open the gate the declutch is working fine, however when I close it, it sounds like the machine is coming apart. The manual said to leave the pto engaged so I do that but have issues with the belts starting again and the worst chatter coming from the chains like something is wrong. When that happens I ultimately back the pto way down and sometimes completely off and then finesse it to make the belts run again. Am I doing something wrong or is there and adjustment for the declutch/ is it just bad?
Al'so the net wrap actuator has not been used. I took it off and cleaned it and it works however it seems to be unable to push the duck bill and chatter like its bound up. Is it bad as well? I took it apart and cleaned it and everything appears fine on the inside, is it possible to rebuild or am I stuck buying a new one?

Tha k you in advance for the help

New holland 650 declutch

Good evening all,
I just purchased a nh650 with 8k bales thru it. I finished bailing my first 70 rolls and wanted to see what I was doing wrong. When I open the gate the declutch disengages perfectly, when I bring the gate back down it feels like the machine is coming apart and chatters horribly, sometimes not engaging the belts at all till i back the pto way down and finesse it. The manual said to release bales with the pto engaged so I thought I was doing the right thing..... is there an adjustment or something?
Also the net wrap actuator seems to not have enough power to push the duck bill, I took it apart and cleaned it (the prior owner was obviously only running string), it works fine but rattles like it's in a bind and unable to do its job. Is it time for a new one, or is there a way to rebuild? All the insides brushes etc looked fine.....
Thanks in advance.

Lock for equipment locking hyd cylinder

No doubt some of you are aware of this but I have never seen one before.    Anyone know what the lock is like to make it so secure?  I do wonder if you took two pieces of angle iron with hinges with non-removable pins and heavy hasp with high quality lock how much they may be worth.
