New to us IH 656. Had not planned on haying with it, but we decided to give it a try. I noticed the end of pto shaft to drawbar hole looked short, but the NH 477 did fine, even on turns. Having the extra power and weight, plus the independent pto compared to the Ford 3600 convinced me to bale with the IH 656 too.
But the draw bar was much to short. Could not hook up baler coupler to tractor pto.
The distance from end of pto shaft to drawbar hole is only 8"! As I'm sure most of you know 14" is fairly standard.
The drawbar looks the same as online parts show, just a straight 35" "stub". Tried spinning it around but that does not work.
Is there an extension we are missing? Only have a shop manual, owners manual soon.
