New Holland round belt balers

[mo!]

I'm quite looking forward to when my 648 next catches fire, I'm just going to unhook the tractor and let her go!

When you can bale axial flow straw with a narrow pick up 550 , you can bale owt , maybe devils machines now , but where the baler in their day ,like 30 drills ,and fahr drum mowers ,

I would have chosen a New Holland over a JD baler, back in the 90,s . The New Holland never jammed as much and was reliable, just a shame they fell by the wayside.

The JD has been aggravating at times but once you know the quirks it is a cheap old baler that packs a good bale. I would like to upgrade that is all.

Upgrade to JD 590 still cheap but better! mine cost £2300 looks mint too

Not sure why but that was a model I was told to avoid, possibly the electrical side? The benefit of the old 550 is it is all done by trip mechanism and can be tripped manually as well. The electric side is for guidance only. Seems to be a big jump in price to 592.
The JD seems well built and painted considering how d some of them are. TBH with area I do i should have a contractor but mine is in small areas and never fit at the same time.

Can't put a price on independence.

Thanks. That certainly looks tidy and quite reasonably priced. Have just bought a 592 for a fair bit more.
