I went and looked at a NH 513 manure spreader today. It looked pretty good, not used real hard, but not really exceptional maintenace either. It was cleaned off good after use but one of the shields is never the less rusted through. The body over all seems pretty good. It is located in central Pennsylvania. What would seem a reasonable price to pay? Does anyone know what size this is and what years they were made? Are there any hazards in hiding to check?
THanks.

I didn't see you said it was a 513 New Holland. I looked that one up on New Holland's website too and it looks like it's that same bloody design as the 213 from the parts diagram anyways. Also it appears they made that spreader from 1973-1987, for sure check that axle. Not saying it's a bad machine but check her out and if the axle is in poor shape go from there. The machine might not be worth a lick or might be worth fixing if you get it for the right price.

Not sure is that spreader is like some of the older ones but CHECK THAT AXLE!!!! New Holland really pulled a bone head move when they designed their spreaders awhile back and these spreaders suffer failures because of it. I looked on yahoo and I couldn't find any pictures being pictures say a 1000 words but I'm gonna describe it the best I can. The way the axle is constructed on the spreaders is essentially it has the spindles welded or bolted to a piece of C channel which is the main member of the axle. Now, instead of putting the mounting brackets and hardware on the topside of the C channel so that manure and fluid can't collect in there, but they put the closed end of the C channel on the bottom so all the manure and liquid that gets past the floor boards sits and collects in that C channel rotting it out. It will look solid but it aint and if it breaks with a good load on there it could trash the whole shooting match twisting the frame ect ect. It's easy enough to stick a new axle under it but it does take time and money.
Note: I just looked on New Holland's website and looked at some of their part diagrams and if you lookup a New Holland 213 spreader on figure 1 main frame and floor you'll see what we're talking about when we say open channel axle. Now I see they've changed the part numbers and the second figure with the main frame and floor doesn't show the open C channel so I wonder if maybe they have revised the design of the axles. Now the next question is how much do they cost if that is indeed the case?
