I have had a NH 461 haybine for many years, and last season, I had quite a bit of downtime with mowing some real heavy
down and tangled 1st cutting mixed hay. Did some upgrades including new guards and upgraded sickle in it. The rubber
rolls are good in it. I was thinking about keeping it for a backup but upgrading to a 469, 479, or 488 since they seem to
be plentiful. I make about 25 acres a year. Discbine is not in the budget.
What are the major differences between a 469 and 479? I know the 488 is still being made today. Is a 488 the best one out
of the three? Thanks for any advice
