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!

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
