I need a small square Baler for around 500 bales a year. I know this isnt enough to justify it but I need bay baled when its dry, and waiting and chewing my nails for others is giving me ulcers.
First, I am in central Montana and there are nowhere near as many small balers here for sale as some places, and they are expensive. My neighbors swear by a JD 216, but one of them has 9 parts balers and the other has 5, and Im not sure there are too many left out there to pick from. We do not have a dealer nearby but we do have a good farm repair shop -an Oliver dealer if that gives any indication - they are not scared of older equipment.
Ive narrowed it down to NH273, 276, and 278. Id like a 16x18 bale but its not that important. These tend to be in the $2500 range. There is also a Heston 4600 in the $3000 range. If been told that the 4600 can be impossible to get parts for, so my question is this- all these Baler are 40plus years old. Are the NH balers going to be easy to get parts for either? Id love an in-line but am I buying an un-repairable headache? All of the balers Ive looked at are working, and all have some wear. Thanks for your thoughts.
