Got a few more wagons to tow behind the baler this year, long tongues. Not a problem with the 58 year old New Holland 68, the wagon chute extension is 4ft. The JD348 - it has a stubby 2ft extension. What's the deal? Why such a short bale chute extension. Looks like there is going to be a red part on a green baler next time out. Note - when I say extension, both baler's have a 4ft chute coming off the bale case. It is the second chute extension going up to the wagon that is different.
Ground driven rakes. Really like the New Holland 56 we picked up this year - with dolly wheel. Simple drop a hitch pin and you are going. Dolly wheel seems to make for a tight turn.
However.....
Is it a fact of life with New Holland (or any other brand) ground driven rakes that you can count of grass hay hopelessly wrapping around the axle hubs/u-joints? If one bought a brand new New Holland 256 or better a 258 rake, could they count on grass wrapping like it does on our 56 - that would be a most aggravating discovery after a purchase.....
Thanks!
