I needed different haybine. My old one died last year right at the end of the season just as I was finishing up. The cost of repairs would be near the value and the PO had used it hard.

Was at an auction the other day and picked up an older Hesston 1014 swing arm really reasonable. It's over all in pretty good shape and looks like all it needs to start cutting is greased and a new hydraulic filter. Aftet I bought it I call my BIL to tell him I wouldn't be needing to borrow his haybine this year after all. His old bine had the frame rust out (his fault for parking it with the head on the ground all the time). He still has it and it's the same model. I can get all the parts off of it I want! So other than sections and guards I'd good to go for a while!

Every once in a while life hands you the lemonade already made.
Glad its working out well for you!
 
We've got the slightly newer 1014+2 which is the twin sickle version. If you're gonna be baling 1st crop, you need extra time to dry with how narrow the crimper rolls are. We chop 1st crop so it's not as big of a problem for us. If your brother had one, I guess you should be familiar with that as well.

Ours is a good machine. We replaced the sickles and all the guards/hold downs with ones from Webb's sickleservice.com when we got it 8-10 years ago.

I did that with a New Idea goose neck haybine last year. Picked it up for $300. Took it home, added oil and ran it all summer.

Only thing I see wrong is there are hyd cyl to open the rolls. Both are blown. But doesn't affect it's operation unless it plugs.
