New Holland 310 hay baler, need spec on blade clearance

[moparguy]

I had a book on the subject square baler, I really did. Now, it must be in the same stack as all the other stuff I can't find.

After locking up the baler on a grease gun in a customer's "clean" field last year, I need to remove the knives and check/sharpen them, some of the bales were coming out a little ragged after the grease gun incident.

I'd be in your debt if you have a NH book and could check the knive clearance for me, I seem to recall . 005 or so, but need to be sure.

Thanks, Ronnie

Hate to say this, but when I have a broad question,I post it on the Ford site too.

Even though they are stuck in a PSD rut, a lot of them are farmers, mechanics,etc. Twice as many users.

Gene, you're right, I've had good luck at the other diesel site in the past. Just thought I'd check with our guys first.

moparguy,

I've got a darn good John Deere baler that is field ready if you get in a bind. Will sell cheap for the shape it's in.

I ran one of those for years and never knew whether to expect good bales or trapazoids! Finally decided it just depended on the mood the dang thing was in.
Never did solve the problem.
