    McCormick cultivator and planter

    My family had a neighbor years ago when we lived in Pennsylvania that used a set-up like that. If I remember correctly he planted about 20 acres with it.

    What make/model is this sickle mower?

    Possibly an AC #7. How does the sickle drive? The #7 mower was the first AC model to do away with a pitman.

    Hesston baler issues

    Thanks. The baler wasn't hooked up as I was using the tractor to square bale the field instead. Right now it's in the shed with the relief pins installed.

    Hesston baler issues

    Follow up question. I have seen that my issue with the baler could be caused by internal cylinder issues. I put it in the shed the other day but didn't insert the pins to take pressure off of the belts. Checking on it I noticed that the latch is now completely open. Will this be an indication of...

    Hesston baler issues

    I have a Hesston 530 round baler that has started to act up. When I was using it a day ago I had the tailgate open up which caused a stall out on the pickup and needing to dump an untied bale. Really dry hay. Tried to bale some millet hay today and didn't get a bale done. The tailgate kept...

    Literature---New Idea Mounted Pickers and Elevator Brochures

    Cool. I have several NI brochures that I picked up in the late 70's. What really interests me is the number of different manufacturers making equipment. Also there is quite a lot of things we think are new and then you come across something from the 50's and 60's, made but didn't sell well...

    Smalley elevator

    Yepper, the older hay and grain elevator. Got to looking again the other day and came across a Owatonna 205 elevator brochure. The cover picture was almost identical to the Smalley 205 brochure other than the color of the wheels. Any idea about the build years for these? Thanks.

    New Holland 315/ 316 pan kicker, will it work?

    Yepper, you'll have to move the plunger side wheel back. New Holland has a axle plate that bolts on in order to do so. When you add a thrower it shifts weight to the rear and will cause balance issues otherwise. Reminds me of a neighbor years ago that was baling one day, looked back in time to...

    Smalley elevator

    I am going to try and scratch build one. Have saved pictures I found online, few and far between. Does anyone here have any experience with them?

    4600 again

    I have new parts coming in, so I've been trying to see how they install. Only video I have found seems to indicate that you need to pull the oil pump drive shaft out to put it together. My question is how do you get everything installed without out it separating during reinstalling. Thanks in...

    4600 again

    I know you guys are probably tired of this, but my poor abused tractor is getting fixed slowly. When I bough it the instrument cluster was shot. Obviously it was setting outside because the tachometer was rusted up. Bought a new cluster and wiring harness, warning lights now work, so that's...

    hay making reference book

    If you can find one, Morrisons Feeds and Feeding is an excellent manual for beginners. I have a 1962 copy. A lot of the recommendations seem to be pretty close to numbers from books dated much later.
