I have one, a 1283 with an a/c cab. I like how it works, specialy the cab its a life savor down here by the mexico and texas border. If the killer bees don't get you the heat will. the bees get into holes in the ground and by the time you find out you have driven over one you are being overwelmed by them. they kill many peaple and animals every year. I cut with a NH 907 speedrower with a water cooled cab. both machins are for sale manules and all.

I have seen a few self propelled New Hollands. Here in Central Washington we grow Timothy hay for export to Japan. Most of the guys use Freeman 3 twine balers, there are fquite a few self propelled Freeman balers both 330 and 370 models. Generally with cabs and air conditioning and all. They are great to operate as you can see exactly what is going on all around you since you are above the pickup and also can see the knotters and catch problems there also. They are also much more maneuverable to pick up broken bales and all.

I have a model 1282 just like the one in the picture. I have restored it from the ground up and painted it. The baler works good although it does get a little dusty. It was a model 282 converted to self propelled. They made several models including the 166 which is a model 66 with two wisconsin engines on it. Ilive in Carthage Tx. (East Texas) and I bought the baler from a man close to Waco,Tx. He had another model 1283 with a cab and he still ues it. The information I can get was that the balers got too expensive and small squares were loosing popularity and New Holland stopped making them. I think that Freeman still makes a self propelled baler but in my opinion you can't beat New Holland.

New Holland called them Haycruisers. There were a few here in Ontario, but same old deal, the boss sat on his butt and drove while the rest of the crew slugged their guts out heaving bales. I have a New Holland catalogue from 1968 with that machine in it and the neighbour's uncle had one he bought new in 1963.

i think the selfpropelled equipment is great for odd shaped fields. i have a selfpropelled haybine great for getting into corners and seeing just where you are cutting. you can see little deer and stop in time for instance. i wish i could get my hands on a selfpropelled haybaler.

I've seen a few self propelled balers. All of the ones I saw were in Colorado when I was on a vacation. They seemed to used a lot of self propelled equipment out there. Never seen one here in the SW MO area.

looks like a 1282 or something like that, i used to work on those machines. later models had a ford 6 cylinder with a dana or spicher vari belt drive. a great machine when small square bales were king. the later model 1425 had a perkins 80 hp diesel. a cab machine is much better. it gets a little dusty riding high right behind the pick up. the earliest ones were a 178 model with a wisconsin motor.

Saw one similar at an auction in Spanish Fork, UT a few months back. It had an enclosed cab. Don't remember how much it sold for, wasn't much. I remember thinking, "if that design was such a good idea, why haven't I seen more of those?" I think the bidders were thinking the same thing.

I have seen one in a NH brochure we had with our 1976 276 wire-tie. I also recall seeing an illustration of one in a children's book about farming. Looks like a wild machine.
