I have a MF 10 that I use for a backup to my John Deere.I took the packer forks apart and drilled holes and tapped them with a 1/4" fine thread tap and put grease fittings in them,one on each side of each packer fork.There are also a lot of bronze bushings in those balers.I go to King Bearing(or any big bearing house) and order them by demensions.If I can only get one that is longer,I just cut it off.Much much cheaper than dealer bushings. : :I had a MF 10 for yrs. make sure the chains are in good tension. I loved the knotters, they just worked great. The problem i got into was the hay feeder arms got too much side play. There is no grease points for those arms. If you find the bushing need to be replaced do it this winter because once they get so lose they will crash (Side to side movement too much) ontop of the baler breaking chains bending things up. At the age of this baler fixing after a major crash becomes too expensive : : I just bought my first MF hay baler I'll be using it for my 3rd cutting of hay this year, is there any thing I should know about this baler Thanks Mike Huber
