853 saga continues

The 851 was the very first conceived, desinged and built round baler and has had many, many improvements done to it since it's original debut.

But, like all things, the buying public has became used to being a "throw away" society. Instead of sinking a thousand dollars in an old machine, we'd just rather buy another baler.

Enter the belt balers. Ever notice that you don't see any old belters still being used? :>)

Allan

I just know I'm gonna regret asking this. :>(

But, did you adjust that empty chamber main chain tension first and adjust the stripper to the closest bar? Have you got proper air bag pressure?

If that main chain is running loose it can hang up on the stripper roll and tear itself right out of there.

Sure hope ya get that guy going.

Allan

But, it sounds like you've already covered all the bases.

I hear ya. I've got another baler that is strickly on standby. The last thing ya need when the hay is ready go, is to be broke down.

Puts a feller in a bad mood. Good luck to ya, Pard. :>)
