I believe it is the same machine except twine vs wire. Good little baler. Only real complaint was the narrow pickup in heavy grass hay. Ben [Reply]  [No Email]

I have one place where even slipping the clutch the JD 336 that I had before it would always grab a big slug and break the shear bolt. The 224 will grab the big slug, chew it up and spit out two bales one on top of the other without a complaint. [Reply]  [No Email]

Much more capacity than the jd or nh balers of the 70's. We had a belt type thrower on it and in good rows the thrower wouldn't have time to get back to full speed between bales. It would make the 730 case we pulled it with smoke a little. Always missed a bale when the twine bales changed but never otherwise. We never could figure out why it did that. Otherwise I can't think of any other problems. [Reply]  [No Email]
