Braggin' On Ol' JD 214 Baler

My 214 (wire) is pretty old & worn out. I baled 44 bales Monday without a miss. Then I baled 444 bales on Tuesday and Wednesday for a friend. One miss, and I think it was just a flaw in
one wire. I'm proud of that ol' machine. kelly P.S. I used my 1939 Farmall H for the 44 bales, but it began pouring coolant out at the end, so I used the Farmall 300 for the 444 bales.
I prefer baling with the H!!! The 300 is hard steering and the IPTO is worn out so I've gotta hold the lever in gear all the time - - tiring in 97 degree heat.
 
Ran a 214T for quite a few years. It had the V4 Wisconsin engine. When it had a rod bearing go out I traded it for a JD 346 PTO. Those 300 series balers are very good. Had a Farmhand accumulator on the 346. Never used a wire baler after we traded the wire tie side winder baler for the 214T.
