We have one, makes good tight bales but not the most reliable and quite a few unique parts that you can only get from jd who usually don't have them in this country. Changing pickup tines is a complete pain in the arse. No drop floor or reverse to if you block it up you have to set to and pull it out by hand. In summary... I think there will be better balers out there.

Looks like the two centre rubber 'bands' on the drive roller are missing. Would this be a problem in hay or straw ?
