Hi,
Used one years ago. Keep the rpm at 16-1800, sharp knife, and plunger aligned properly, greased and well oiled and you should have a hummer.

Baled last weekend with my "68." This is my second season with it and I haven't had any trouble. Just keep it lubricated and timed. Don't overload it either, keep windrows fairly small and you won't have any troubles. Used a Super M, mostly in first gear at 3/4 throttle. Tried a little in 2nd gear, but felt more comfortable in 1st. Wasn't in any hurry anyhow and nothing broke!
Good luck!

Bob I have my Dads 68 that he purchased new in 1957. This has been a wonderful baler. The baler has never been left outside even over night. I
believe that fact has had a lot to do with its longjevity and dependability. These balers are very easy to work on with parts and manuals availiable from NH. The two repairs that come to mind are a key shearing in the gear box that drives the feeding forks and a nominal repair to the pickup. Keeping the baler well lubed timed
and the knife sharp is important. While the 68 lacks the higher capicity of later models it will do a very respectiable job for you with hardly ever a missed tie. Good luck to you.
