Great my dad had BALER just like this but had a cub or A engine on it the rocking back and forth when siting sure at the momentum going super great baler .p.s.Got lots of bales put right on the wagon NEVER any on the ground to pick up 6 or 5 high may be 70 bales per wagon . LOVE IT BUT do not really mise the stacking of those bales .p.s. then putting them in the barn over 100 or 150 high we used a grapple fork pulled by track the grapple fork went up to the top of barn then went right and pulled the rope and down they fell.p.s. VERY warm up in the hay mow .thanks again ,🇺🇸👍😇 are's 1960 time frame 🏆
The 8N pulling the horse drawn mower, will eventually wear the gears out of the mower. My brothers and I found this out in the late sixties pulling one behind a Super A when we first start custom hay. We had small 2-3 acre plots scattered close to home of alfalfa. The horse drawn mower wasn't designed to operate faster than a horse could walk. Moved down to riding lawn mower after we got another horse drawn mower going until we could afford a 1300 International sickle bar mower.
Wonderful. Never thought I'd see a finger-bar mower working again! And they are nearly all dressed for the part - no yellow jackets. Only the guy in red baseball cap wasn't quite in the spirit of it. But a wonderful set of kit, thanks to all who restored these machines to working condition. . . . Alan
Oh how I remember that three wheel McCormick baler back in the late 70's and early 80's when I was just a kid. with its own 4 cylinder engine. that baler used to miss knots many knots and I got payed 1dollar 50 per day to ride on the outside twyne box and tye any knots that the baler missed and what a dirty dusty job. had to wear goggles to keep the dust out of your eyes. But hey I was just a kid and that was a lot of money back then. Great video of the old stuff.
i had the chance to buy a McCormic 50T at an auction once. no crank handle to start it. you'd engage the clutch and jump on the spokes of the flywheel while holding the clutch handle to disengage it once it started. i thought that was the most dangerous thing i'd ever imagined and i had to have it. i got outbid and the new owner salvaged the engine for the tractor he was restoring and scrapped the baler. makes me mad.

That baler does have a Cub motor on it. The A motor wasn’t used until the 55 series.

Come back and see my remark on baler we never had knotter problem's keep them good and oiled 🇺🇸🏆
what is a fingerbar mower? looks like a sickle bar mower to me.
Hello I came back with 3 rd comment they used a PTO to start the baler that is cheating we used the crank to start it 🇺🇸🏆👍🤔

Yeh people are stupid they do the same thing to nice old combines. They should be named and shamed.
great again-a little different compared to what you normally video!
I wonder how many of those old boy are deaf as door posts!?!
At 1:08 - - that an interesting way to start it!! Those balers were such a poor design, though.
It was 50's what did you expect
In the time it took them to hook up a PTO shaft , I could have started the thing with the hand crank twice.
Hot I have i0 on l
