I have not been able to load either of th3 2 types of baler's. I put the pallet next to them, over them, all around them. Nothing happens. So how do you load them????? I have all this grass cut, turned, and put in a row. I don't want to just collect and store it as grass. It needs to be put in bales.

You don't "load" a baler, you attach it to a tractor and tow it so the pickup picks up the grass, then turns it into a bale. The round balers need to be stopped for a few seconds upon completion of a bale, to eject it, before they are ready to pick up more grass.

Out of curiosity, what are you trying to load into them?

Silage additive?

I thought that was only for loading wagons.

That's what I thought too but he said he is trying to load from a pallet and that's the only thing that comes to mind?

Things don't add up. Grass "turned" - as in with a tedder, to make hay? You don't need silage additive for hay. Also you can't add additive to any baling machine, only a forage harvester. There's a scientific reason why you never need to add additive to a baler, its to do with the fermenting in a bale vs in a silage pit (I think?)

The big square Krone baler has an additive tank. Only one that I have seen so far.

Yeah, the krone can have a tank for it, as kan loading wagons.
But, it needs to be configured

It was the Krone baler. It would just keep taking in pallets of twine and kept saying you need to fill tool first. Baler defective.

Are you talking about the Krone baler set in fs19?
If you are, I suggest looking on YT, there are a few vids there

Which game version are you playing?
And a screenshot or five might help a lot too...

Use this to load up images, then copy one of the links it generates, and paste it on your post.

I'm guessing you're playing fs19, and having the global baler add-on, that adds netting or twine to all balers, and the trying to load a Straw Harvest baler that has that function built in.
I don't have fs19 installed and talking from blurry memory here, but I'm pretty sure that was a compability problem with that mod and certain balers.

But of course, if you provide more info we can help instead of guessing.

These are the mods I'm talking about, they don't play nice together
