542 Ford Baler parting out

[Anonymous-0]

I was wondering if there is any interest in my Ford 542 baler that I am going to cut up and haul for scrap. I used it last year and put up about 30 ton of hay before the flywheel hub broke. There are some new wipers in the knotter assembly, new tires, some new pickup tines, hay dog springs, etc. I put new discs in the clutch last year, but I am not sold on this setup. Anyways, after the hub broke I bought a Massey Ferguson 1839 baler. I really like the old equipment, but I really don't have time for it right now. I hope someone would like some parts to keep their baler running. I will keep it until haying season is over this year.

Flywheel hub is a piece of cake to replace. I got a used one off this forum and fixed mine last spring. Shame to parts out a good baler for only a broken hub!

I live in Colville, WA and the baler is currently shed stored. I have a few people interested locally in it presently, but nothing in concrete. Sorry I cannot post a picture in this forum without being registered. If you would like any you can email me. Thank you.

Here is a picture of the 542. I forgot to mention I have the operators manual and repair manual for it.
