Hello, The horse farm iv'been working on this summer bales about 2 - 3000 bales per season, and they use an 38 year old model 27 baler. It's always slept indoors or covered with a tarp if on the feild, so it's in prety good condition. Well, last year, tpwards the end of the baleing process (20-ish bales to go) the tooth pulling cable thing broke, carriage went in the chamber, plunger mashed it pretty good. So the story goes. Seems Case sells new carriages for it, but they sell them 700$, so we un-bent it (along with a whole lot of other parts). The cable they sold 250$, the hardware store sold one to my boss 36 feet for 19$.

Just goes to show. Sharpened the knives, greased it all round, re-ajusted pretty much everything except the chamber. (it looked like something that's pretty long to do) Also made a new wood block to correct a pulley that was rubbing somewhere it wasn't supposed to. This thing has wood blocks in it, would you beleive? Anyways, it took 5 days to fix, and now it works. However, sometimes it makes rather flacid bales, and others tight. It'l break the twine about once per 50 bales and miss a knot once per 20 bales or so.

So im' asking to anyone who has experience with this machine: Does this sound like a properly operating model 27 baler? Boss was swearing at it the other day. The springs have been re-ajusted to specs, but beeing almost 40 years old, i figure they're probably not as tight as they should be, right?

Also, is it normal that it dosen't like thin plastic twine? It seemed to choke more often on it then on the slightly thicker other brand. I have a IH #27 baler that I use as a back-up. It was old and rusty when I got it 10 years ago. The last time the previous owner used it they broke a needle. A repaire man from the local IH dealer came to the farm and replaced the needle and retimed it.

He spent most of the day working on it. The owner made 2 or 3 bales to make sure it worked and put it away with the bales in it. I bought it few years later. I cleaned it up and tried it out. It has only missed 3 knots out of 3000 to 4000 bales. It will make a banna bale once in a while. Other than that it works fine.

I normally use a JD 24T and I think it makes better bales. We have a 27 that was bought new in the 60's by my great-grandpa and used on our farm for years, until this year. It has done a lot of hay, but was nothing but trouble as far back as I can remember.

It doesn't have a good reputation, especially the older they get. We found a IHC 430T for $275 at an auction. I didn't know how bad the 27 was until we used the 430. The 27 missed a lot some days, others ok, but it is very slow and made bad bales. We bale about the same # of bales you do. It was nice this year not to have to worry about the baler making hay.
