You can search the archives here too, there is a lot of good info on a 14 T.

J.D. dealer can get them for you , I recommend getting the operator and parts manual, about $40.00 total cost.

I would try a John Deere dealer. A few years ago I had a catalog of manuals available thru the dealer and they had them then. I recall being able to mail order them direct from John Deere. The catalog dated 1989 lists part # OM-E16470.

I spent a lot of time loading bales behind a 14T. Be ready to rebale about 5 bales on every load. The knotters on JD balers are a real problem.

Sorry I can't help you about a manual, but I know some guys apparently get them on ebay.

I don't believe that the knotters on a JD give trouble at all. As for having a lot of time behind one, try 30 years. Our 14t was properly maintained by an expert (my father, who also BTW worked at the factory where they were and still are made -338- ). Our currant baler is a JD337. Try 5 missties a season! It's still the same knotter! As for the 14T, when it came out in 1955 it was head and shoulders better than ANYTHING else on the market. They were so well made that they give outstanding service for decades! Deere still uses a similar design, with extra shields, more sheetmetal, same knotters, and a bigger pickup, plus a few gadgets. A well maintained 14t in good condition is still an outstanding machine. BTW, John Deere will be glad to sell you a book.

That's good to know, had one given to me once and it would not tie to save its sorry soul. JD mechanic couldn't get it to work either. Must have suffered from abuse.

I have a 336 that misses one in every 500 . . . nothing wrong with JD knotters, just the people who (don't) maintain them.

Twine quality or the lack there of share some responsibility with broken bales.

Amen on twine quality. Do you use hemp or plastic?

Got out of the whole business some time ago. Never had much use for the plastic. Used to buy 10000, but it varied in gauge too much and the distributer would not stand behind it. Then switched to 7000 and with the thrower they would not explode on impact! Hand stacking we could get by with the 10000 if it was any where near consistent.

We had a tune up performed on the old 14T, dealer mechanic came out in '68 and spent a few hours on it. When he was ready to leave I asked if we should hook it up test it out. He politely explained to me he could set a 14T in his sleep and there would be no problem. There wasn't.
