The early self propelled New Holland balers had 2 Wisconsin two bangers. One to drive the baler and one to make it go mobile. Also they had a narrow front end like a row crop tractor. AL B.
Buddy of mine in Wisconsin has one line that.
Thanks for the video. I understand the wind situation. Nebraska is the exact same way
We’ve got a good windbreak at the farm but you can only do so much.
@@tmonteIH I have a solid windbreak on the north side of our property but these south east winds lately are just horrid.
That was some good drive on the trailer.that the first new Holland machine that I’ve seen nice machine.enjoy your videos I live in Mississippi lol the wind blow here like there about every day now . Have good one God Bless
I wish Ertl would make a precision series model of these…such a cool old machine. My dad and uncle ran NH balers with Wisconsin engines pulled behind IH 504s for years in northeast Colorado. Maybe you’ll stumble upon an old self propelled hay wagon in your journeys!
I know of an old Massey Harris combine rotting away in Holyoke…it’s on a farm out by the airport. Great stuff, sir!
I’d buy a precision model of a NH SP baler in a heartbeat.
You sure got some nice red iron in your shed Tyler 👍 👌 so cool
Thanks. Need to dig a few other pieces out and get them on video.
Unique ,cool .I saw one at auction a couple years ago 👍
Definitely not many to find.
Cool machine, but for a farmer with alot of acreage in hay, not so practical. My neighbor usually farms about 200 acres of pure alfalfa, for the high end horse market, with a normal square bale about 50-55 lbs, in addition to 1-200 acres of wheat straw and long rye straw, plus many acres of timothy and mixed hay. I worked for him many an afternoon and into the dry evenings, with a JD 3010 or IH706, pulling a New Holland baler with the hay wagon behind. Normally we had two on the wagon, as these were real hay wagons that we stacked 200 -250 bales on. I don't think this hay cruiser would have the weight or power to pull this combination in the field, or down the road. This was a hay operation that had very valuable bales of hay, not a round bale that is only a few levels above mulch hay, that sits outside!!! We never left the 2 NH balers he had for this operation outside at night, even in nice weather. Always had to find a shed for cover, or we tarped the baler. We used to keep a scale on the tractor, and stopped a few times a day to check the weight of a bale, when you are selling a bale for several dollars a bale, they need to be fairly accurate on the weight you are telling your customers they should be. Too much and you are giving alfalfa away, too little and your reputation is on the line with customers. If kids today want a workout, put them on a hay wagon and stack this kind of hay, in addition to unloading up into a barn. If you watch many videos of people handling bales of hay without a hay hook, you know they do not move many bales, as their hands would be toast doing this all day with either twine or wire bales. We took great care of our bale hooks, they were also part of our valuable hay operation and another great tool for a farmer!!!
Just depends on how you decide to go about picking up the hay. All of the SP balers I’ve had came out of commercial hay areas where they were picking bales up with NH Stackliners and stacking them in pole barns. Takes a hell of a lot less guys when you’re not pulling a wagon behind the baler. Some guys like to work smarter not harder. Others are too hard headed to change.
You are very correct, my friends have also had NH stackliners since late 70's, which they use to stack their open pole barn storage, at the same time. Problem with them is they don't hold many bales and you are riding the roads all day moving small loads, and unless you have the luxury of having large, open pole barns, its hard to justify the big expense. We used to stack the lower levels with the bale stacks, then have to move the elevator to be able to completely fill the barn on top of the stack. We used every square foot available in those expensive pole barns.
Always wanted to have a self propelled baler like that.
I’d get one with a cab and AC personally.
I bet they were a dirty booger to run in really dry hay sitting behind the pickup. Did they come with an oxygen tank and mask option? 🤧
I’m sure it was absolutely hell and a good cause of pneumonia
"Just politely pi$$ off"
Lmao 😂😂😊
Just speaking the truth.
In 60+ years I have never seen one of those before!
Well I’m glad you got to see something new
Does it come with a supply of Dramamine... Stay safe, Tim
I was thinking a guy would need a lot of Zyrtec
I wonder how those california ag inspectors liked that hay already loaded.
I was also wondering the same thing but decided it wasn’t my problem.
Diesel or gas?
Gas
