Drove 80 miles to north Alabama this morning to get a JD 14t baler with a Wisconsin engine. At $300 I figured it was an ok deal. Guy said all baler parts moved. And engine wasn't stuck. Well..... engine wasn't stuck. Had decent compression. But baler was missing a chain behind big flywheel ,and a wheel and tire. And the fork that packs the hay in. Still....... didn't look bad so we tried to load it. HEAVY!!!!! Got it on my trailer sideways and couldn't turn it. Almost impossible to lift. Hitch was sticking way too far out to go down the road. Decided that if he could get it off the trailer it could stay there! My wife said she was praying for a sign,if we should buy it or not. Looks like not!!
Nothing more than a bit of surface rust. Lots of old grease. How many parts should I be able to move by hand? Couldn't get much of anything to move. His poor tractor barely had the back tires on the ground!
