Im new to the baling world also john. I bought a N.H. Baler 1965 year. After taking the thing apart and putting back I know more about one then I ever wanted. First is Make sure they still can get parts. Like needles, knotters, plunger bearings, pickup fingers. And Dont FORGET to get the service and parts manuels. Worth a million or itleast a few hundred dollars if you like working on them yourself. Now that Ive overhauled one Ill try to give you what Id look for NOW in shopping for another one. Run the thing by hand moving the flywheel check that the plunger bearings move freely and not dragging. Check that the blades are in good shape meaning no major gashes or dents. How many pickup fingers youll need toget (if they still can get them) Check the needles have they been welded and if so straight. Pair for mine run 250.00!! OUCH Check the knotters. By running it by hand and watching it move you should be able to see if it ties or not. I relize that this is alot but the main thing is if possible have the saler run it and see that it ties. Mine tied three bales and pooped out. I bought mine for 200.00 and put 300.00 parts into it. So 500.00 and alot of education. From what Ive learned Timing is everything thats the first thing I did was to make sure timing was on. THen replaced the plunger bearings, most of the pickup fingers, welded new angle iron on the bottom (hay was left in and rusted out.) Belts, grease zerks, spring. And a tweek here and there and good to go. Also I dont believe a 24t and 224t are the same. I think but not sure that a 24t is older model then the 224t. Good Luck and Happy baling..
