The crank for the pickup on the 648 Newholland baler snapped off this summer while baling straw. There’s a machine threaded shaft that goes through a block that provides the pull to lift the pickup and I’m guessing years of bouncing while suspended it created a weak spot and finally broke off. I never noticed till I was finished the field it broke in and never did find the missing piece. I called our local dealer and every parted out newholland baler they had was already missing the pickup crank. The threaded shaft and handle are two separate pieces,I can’t remember the exact total but tho threaded shaft and handle are in the area of $350? Whatever the exact cost I wasn’t paying that for it. We have a Newholland 56 rake parted out so I took one of the crank handles off of it. I cut the block out of the part on the rake and the same in the baler as the threads weren’t quite the same size. The rake handle shaft was around 4’ so I cut 7” of thread and left 5” of smoothe then cut the handle off and rewelded it to what was left of the shaft. I then welded a piece of tubing close to the handle to hold the washer and a bearing for a spacer to run up against the slot on the baler. It didn’t turn out as pretty as I hoped but for only having a grinder welder and hack saw it works good. I drilled a hole in the thread near the end and put a pin in it so the handle doesn’t uncrank itself completely off and gets lost again.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
