    MF 255 power steering

    Topped the resivoir off. If there is any difference it is very small. The resivoir didn't hold another 5-6 ounces, if that. Thanks Jim

    MF 255 power steering

    Digging into some slop in the steering on my MF255. The first item to check in troubleshooting noted in my manual identified as Workshop Service Manual 1448 768 M1 is fluid level at the pump reservoir. Im clear on where to check this and to what level to fill the reservoir. The manual calls...

    NH 630 round baler PTO shaft

    I did get this resolved, went down the replace rather than repair path. I do small patch, just enough to feed my critters. Moved from small squares to small rounds to ease the pickup burden. I do a bunch of turning, needed the double joint, dropped the Benjamin's, it was a bitter pill. Thanks...

    NH 630 round baler PTO shaft

    The crosses seem OK, the "centering yoke" or whatever it's called is toast. I did take it to a machine/driveline shop I have done business with a long time and trust. Shared what I was seeing price wise and his recommendation was replace rather than repair. He did comment that up to almost 3...

    NH 630 round baler PTO shaft

    I bought a well used NH 630. I do very small acreage but am a one man show so time to get away from the small squares. The double cardan/CV joint on the shaft that came with it needs rebuild. Finding that parts are mostly NLA. I contacted a machine/drive line shop I have used for years and...

    Baler belt lacing

    The belts are 7 inch and I see vice lacers available in that width. Looking at the compatible lacing the wire size varies. It seems the "slots" ( for lack of a better term) in the bottom are different sizes. Those slots that the pin side of the lace go through and the pin on the lacer secures...

    Baler belt lacing

    Hello all, I need some guidance on clipper belt lacing. I am rehabing a NH 630. I pulled the belts off because the existing lacing was in pretty bad shape and belts were evidently different lengths. Got the old lacings off and was careful to make the belts all the same length and ends square. I...

    Hesston 530 question

    Hello All, I am working towards fewer square bales and have been studying on round balers. I am small acreage, bale for my own pets, shoestring budget. I keep going back to the Hesston 530/5530. Slow, small bale, manual tie, relatively simple is what I want. I see them around, have a reliable...

    Backwards spool valve??

    Just in case someone lands on this one looking for answers.On my MF 255 with auxillary hydraulic pump the pressure line comes out of the tractor on the round plate at my left heal and the return line goes to the filter under the left trumpet. I had convinced myself otherwise. Thanks Jim

    Backwards spool valve??

    I am putting a 3 spool valve on a MF 255 for loader control to accommodate a grapple. It has a joy stick (2 spools) currently and I am gathering parts for the change. I am down to getting correct bushings/plumbing parts, I have bought the new valve. So I am studying the hose layout that is...
