New Holland 469 Haybine

stoughtonfarmboy · Oct 3, 2018

I bought a service manual for a similar Haybine model 472 to 488. Photo attached.
About 20 pages of not enough detail. I have 2 NH 469 Haybines. 1 for parts. I want to find out how to remove the belt on the drive (left) side of the machine. "Spare" machine has better looking belts and chains. Can't figure out how that belt comes off without dismantling a lot of the machine. Anyone tackle this?
Thanks

The info you need is actually in the operator?s manual. Take 4 bolts out of the bottom bearing mount of the wobble assembly and rotate the pulley until the belt can slip out between the header frame and wobble mount. I?m a little fuzzy on the top end, but it involves removing the PTO shaft from the gearbox and then removing the gearbox AND the plate on the right side of the gearbox (together) from the header frame. Rotate the box and plate until you can slip the belt through the gap. I?m pretty sure this is how it goes.

Thanks. I may pursue the operator manual. This one will likely go to salvage, so won't need to completely reassemble after belt is removed. A good dry run for putting belt on working machine. I hope to not need to do that!😮

Got the belt off. Thanks for the instructions. Had to cut the bearing cap off. Twisted my allen wrench on set screw and still couldn't get it loose. An all afternoon project. Luckily, nice day with no rain in southern Wisconsin.

Big difference between Operator, Parts and service manual, need all 3 to get all information.
