Can someone tell me about how to find a used large sq. baler(ie. 3x3x8)? What size tractor would it take? What would be an estimated cost?

Don't waste your time with any brand besides Hesston, they have 80% market share. I run 4x4 baler, but would perfer a 3x4 for max capacity and truck payload. The first 3x3 Hesston made was a 4700. I'm told these where made somewhere in Europe and where not good. The 4750,4755, and 4760 are all the other good 3x3 balers. Basically all pretty similar just newer. Opperator's manually stretches the truth about the size of tractor needed as I found out. Figure on a minimum of 125hp for a 3x3 from what I'm told. I use 165hp on my 4x4, but would perfer 15hp more. I've seen some well used 4750s advertised for around $20,000-$25,000. Expect to pay $25,000 to $35,000 for anything real good.

Hesston is nolonger a stand alone Agco brand and is now massey Fergusen Hesston Series. They just came out with the redesigned balers. A new 4x4 will cost around $93,000. Deere 100 balers can be had cheap, but run away. Too many problems to even list. From what I've seen of NH I wouldn't want one either. The old NH only have single knotters, and the newer ones are to complicated to work on. Hesstons are pretty strait forward to work on. You might want to call Maize corp(www.maizeparts.com) in Kansas to see what they have on hand.
