I owned the smaller brother to the 510..a 410. Bought new in 1982 and kept/used it for 20 years. It was very reliable and once you got used to its idiosyncrasies it would work reasonably well. It's somewhat of a "trick" to start a bale ... my advise read the manual before you use it. The biggest problem was the press roller..as it essentially eliminated clover and alfalfa leaves before the dry hay reached the chamber... not at all like the open throat designs of today. I often told people that I had the worst haying equipment for saving clover and alfalfa leaves... a JD 410 and a New Holland side rake that I called the hay beater. I now own an open throat JD 447 and a Miller-Pro rotary rake.... and make much better hay..
