Allan, I hesitate to ask this because I've never had any dealings with that model, BUT I was wondering about the chain riding on the rubber roller. Is the idea to reduce wear on the chains? If so, isn't the rubber being gone going to increase chain wear? Maybe NH has a cure for this that dosen't involve new rollers.

Funny you say that. On the baler I just bought, the tensioner for the main drive chain is made up of 2 all steel (stamped) pulley's. Needless to say I replaced them due to wear. There is a chain guide made of wood, but the tensioners are steel.

Seems kinda stupid to have steel rollers with a steel chain rolling on it.

And it is painted Mother Deere Green. And it was the baler of choice around here for like 30 years and it's successors are taking it's place.....but I don't know if the steel guide rollers are still steel.

Mine were wore out also.
Found out there was an update to 15 tooth idler sprockets, AN15521 IDLER SPROCKET 15 TOOTH, (SUB FOR AE35675) Sure like these a whole lot better.
Have a good day.
Steve

Hi KEH,

Boy, I sure don't know; I�m the world�s number one dummy. I think it was probably an evolutionary thing going on with the rubber rollers, wasn't it?

My hired man from years ago had an 851, which had the floor chains. He was meticulous about oiling those chains and taking care of his machine. That dude ran quiet as a church mouse.

I was kinda shocked to hear the noise of this 849; I got to checking and noticed that the main chain had worn the grooves in both of the rubber rollers, thru the rubber and down to the base metal. Doesn't effect the operation of the gizmo one little bit, but it sure is noticeable with that clickity clack thing going on.

Of course, when the rollers were new I would image that this model was quite also because there is no metal-to-metal contact with the chain going on.

Dunno, maybe it is such a thing as the fellow who put in the new chains used the wrong bar attaching bolts? They are round headed machine bolts and have the initials "NH" on 'em. I just assumed that they were correct??

I don't know squat about balers, but I've seen numerous things used for chain wear and/or tighteners. One thing that was pretty common was wood, I would think oak. Another thing that I think would work good would be that white plastic that they use for cutting boards in locker plants. I've seen it used as wear plates before and I think it's tough as nails.

Allan, It was just a thought, since I hadn't seen one. Would like to see pictures also. I remember from a summer job seeing a process for installing rubber on steel with some kind of glue. This was on a conveyor.

Hey Allan!

Any chance you could take a picture of those rollers? I've got a couple piles of rollers/idlers/wear plates/ect.... from a couple conveyer systems I removed from a building I bought a few years back. Maybe....?????

Just a thought....

PLUS, It'd surely help out to have a bit of Hoosier technology on your place....

Hi John,

You bet I will. The outfit is clear and gone out in the country right now. When I go out there in the morning, I'll try to remember to take the camera along.

Also, maybe Steve from New Holland can help shed some light on my "noisey 'lil baler". :>)
