In the winter of 2007 i have bought a Nh Super 65 hay baler.
Greased it, and sharpened the knives in the plungerchannel in May 2008.
In June 2008 it was showtime

After this i got in mind that i want to restore this baler!
But how to purchase spare parts?
It is a older machine and probably spare parts will be a problem?
So i placed a wanted AD on a Marketplace for a Workshop Manual and Parts Catalog.
After some weeks i got a offer to copy the manual and catalog from a guy not for away.
After the copy work i have given the them back and asked if he owned such a baler?
He said yes i have a NH Super 65 hay baler...
So i asked if was for sale (for spare parts), and he said yes it is for sale.
After some talking about the price i did buy the baler.

After this i looked in the parts catalog to get the partsnr for pickuptines
i asked at the NH Workshop about available tines.
No problem to order, how much do you need?
So i did buy all available tines from a old stock quantity.
And also 2 sets of new wooden bearings for the plunger for both balers.
When there is no problem to order new parts?
Then i can restore both balers.
So i decided to restore the parts baler!
New tines inserted into the pickup.

Next step will be to pull the plunger out and fit new wooden bearings.
(that will be done when the temperatures go up again)
So far so good...
