You might want to check the condition of the friction disc that the trip arm rides in. Mine was getting worn down and even though I had the clamp set to where I wanted it on the trip arm because the teeth on the friction disc was getting worn down it would still occasionally make an odd length bale. I have my 68 tore down right now to replace the plunger slides. New Holland wants $129.00 a piece for a piece of wood. I had a wood worker here make me some. I took him an original slide that was unworn at the back and he used it to make me some new ones. I got all four made for $40.00. The downside it while I had the baler tore down bumblebees decided to build a nest in it in a place that you can not get to without some serious dismantling. I love my 68. It was originally powered by the Wisconsin engine and they pulled it with a Ferguson TE-20. It still has the three stripes on the flywheel from the belts. When they bought a new MF 165 in 1965 my grandfather traded the engine set up for the pto shaft set up. I remember him telling me if you got too much hay in the baler and the governor would open up that you would see smoke coming off the belts...lol.I found the note pad in it where my grandfather kept count of the square bales in 1957 thru 1961 and they averaged between 5,000 and 6,000 those years with that set up!

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
