    Hello! (I'm completely new to balers, please excuse my way of describing things...) Last year, we bought a used round baler by New Holland, the 5980. When we tested it, everything worked and the hay was picked up. Yet, the net didn't work at all. It didn't bind. And other problems followed...

    Searching for another loader tractor. There are quite a few TV140 and TV145 tractors for sale around me. I’m seriously considering one but a have a couple questions. I don’t see them on balers. Why not? I would like to use it to pull a new 5x6 rounder in addition to loader work. Would like use...

    I am doing some winter maintenance on the cutterbar of my NH 7320 discbine to address some issues from last summer. I have a few questions I am hoping this group can help me with. These are more about educating myself so I re-build the cutterbar correctly as this is the first time I have dug...

    I just bought a spare identical NH 315 square baler for parts. Trying to swap out a bent tongue. The pivot bolt at the axle will spin but won't come through no matter how much pressure I put on it from below. There's a sleeve/spacer that spins with the bolt inside the tongue. Did they weld the...

    I need help in figuring which of these would be a good baler for grass hay. I have the option to go 535 twine only John Deere, 660 new Holland net and twine or Vermeer 605k net and twine they are all in the range of 4k. Is there pros and cons to each when it comes to baling grass. I’ll be making...

    I’m looking for some parts of a 848 round baler. The parts are the latch and latch assembly for the tail gate. The parts are discontinued and I cannot get my monitor to work since there is no latch to tell the monitor the tailgate got let back down. The part numbers would be 35 and 34 for the...

    I've got an older NH 451 with single guards. Can I convert it to the double guards? Is it a worth while investment? I'm having trouble finding good guards and the aftermarket guards from farm stores just don't hold up.

    I bought a bale command monitor and it came with the tractor side wiring harness for a NH 688 baler. I have a BR780 so this is of no use to me and I don’t know anyone around me who needs it. I tested all of the pins and it seems to work fine. I’d like to sell it, what would be a fair price? New...

    I have a NH664 round baler. When baling alfalfa I don't have a problem but when I bale grass (fescue grass hay) grass will slip between the belts near the edges and build up on top of the duck bill. The grass will mess up the net wrap. The grass may just mess up the net on one side or if...

    Just bought a new to me new Holland 848 baler, twine, auto wrap. When looking over the machine everything looked good till I got it home and got up on one of the tires and looked down into the chamber. I could see that both sides of the apron chain were folded on top of each other like the...

    An implement dealer I deal with in my day job has a nh660, twine only, auto wrap that I am thinking about getting. I was wondering about everyone’s opinions on those model balers since I know little to nothing about them. What should I be looking at? What are some common problems? Thanks in...

    Having issues with my 650 twine. Seem's like everything works as it should EXCEPT for the auto extend and retract. I can manually control it and it ties great, just annoying and seriously messing with my limited sandwich eating time. Any idea why it might not be working. I have tried switching...

    popped a shear bolt and had to stop baling. Found a bunch of spaghetti in the knotter. Found that the rising lever which ‘counts the bales’ and tells the knotter to knot had come unbolted. After cutting all the twine mess out and checking the timing it looks ok, however… now the clutch will not...

    I am in the process of trying to sell my New Holland BR7060. I was asked by someone yesterday if the controller, the Bale Command Plus, is considered waterproof or water resistant. I have always had it mounted inside of a cab tractor so it is not a question I have ever asked or thought of. I...

    Hoping I can get an answer here as the internet has not been helpful. I'm trying to replace the knife drive pulley. It's the top pulley that the belt runs on for the wobble box. Ours for some reason split in two. From the way it sits it appears the gearbox needs to come off? Or does the pulley...
