My old NH 78 is shot to hades. Busted needles and tore it up last time out. Neighbor is selling a model 65 at auction next week. It is rusty from sitting in the basement of the barn unused for the past 15 yrs. Otherwise it seems ok. still has twine to the knotters from the box. Now he never took the "best appearance care" of his stuff, but he always kept his stuff greased, oiled, covered and maintained. Generally, if he had it on the place, it worked well. It looks like it makes smaller bales than the 78. Needles are intact. plunger works fine. Looks like the pick up is narrower than the 78 also. There are lots of model 66's and 68's around here but 78's and 65's are very rare.

Any tips on what to check before buying?

Any parts I should save off the 78 before scrapping it?

just looked at one today here in ky was a little rusted but everything moved and looked good. all the sheet metal is there but the chute is a little rusted on the bottom does anyone know how hard it would be to replace?? have run NH 68 behind JD 2040 handled it great (40 hp) all i have is a 660 ford (34 hp) would it handle it fine? only need to bale about 2000-2500 bales a year. are parts still avaliable, how hard is it to work on? all ive ever run is the newer 200 series balers and the old 68 but it never broke down. its a NH 65 compact by the way

65 is a good dependable but old baler. Check to make sure the emergeny stop works in case a pin shears in the knotter mechanism. NH will send you a free owners maual if you request it.
