    I've got a plow to pick up.

    I have a old 3 point field cultivator just like that sitting in the weeds, have used it a few time on small seeding jobs. Better take somebody else with you, it will be pretty hard to man handle that thing yourself to get it on a trailer. Maybe with 2 people you could get one end up on the...

    horsepower for a 2 row corn chopper

    We Run a JD 3800 on the 4020, first gear wide open. In good corn it will make it blow smoke. We only chop a wagon load a day to feed with in the fall. If I was going to chop all day I would want 125hp at least, especially if you have bigger wagons. Making sure the knives are sharp and the...

    Transport Disc, bent lift mechanism

    Looks identical to a Krause disk that I have. Several options for fixing that. If you are a pretty good welder you could cut the bent portion out, find a piece of pipe to slip over the straight ends and weld it in place, then fabricate a hold down strap for the center, if you have to pay...

    Farmall 450 issues

    Thanks for the replies. I did pull the tank and clean it out. I don't have a book handy, is there a website where I can get the screw settings for the carburetor?

    Farmall 450 issues

    Working on a Farmall 450 gas. Hasn"t run much in the last couple years. Last time it ran (about 9 or 10 months ago) it ran well when it was at about half choke. I figured out that fuel wasn"t flowing out of the sediment bowl fast enough. I would loosen the sediment bowl up till it started to...

    Does hay dry better raked with a wheel rake

    In my experience it does dry a little better. We mow with a disc mower and the wheel rake tends to fluff it up a bit more than a bar rake which lets air pass through it better. As far as speed goes yes wheel rakes are faster. I know I'm going to catch hell from some guys for this but with a...

    NH 269 feeder fingers

    Does anybody have a diagram or know the lengths of the feeder fingers on a New Holland 269 baler? The diagram on Messicks does not have the lengths for the fingers on the right hand side if you"re looking at the baler from the back.

    Vermeer 605F

    So going to look at a Vermeer 605F tomorrow. Haven"t spent a bunch of time around round balers and looking for something low budget to bail hay for ourselves for a few years till we can get something better (running out of storage and time to do enough small squares). What can you guys tell me...

    Chiseled some ground today

    Disks CAN pack the ground if you try to work it when it's too wet. Construction companies use big offset disks to loosen the ground so the scrapers and dozers can move it. They then use sheeps foot rollers or pull type packers to repack the ground. What oliver do you have? How many shank chisel?

    Scouring a plow

    Take it to the field and use it. Best thing to shine up a plow is get it in the dirt and pull the snot out of it. When you are done using it, scrape it clean and either shoot it with some spray paint or put a thick coating of grease on it.

    Need cultipacker wheels

    Posted a while ago about picking up a Bearcat cultimulcher for cheap. I finally got around to digging it out of the weeds and hauling it home. Pretty good shape all in all but it needs a few things. Seems to only have one bearing out which isn"t a big deal. The tricky part is finding some...

    Need Help Hay baler

    Look the NH and the JD's over close. They are the best options. Pleanty of parts available. Had a 14t when I was growing up and it never would tie a good bale, could have been just that baler though, some people swear by them. Have a NH 269 right now which is newer than a 68 but I...
