discontinued attachments specs

jimg · Apr 13, 2006

In your travels on the net have you come across data for attachments like hay equipment etc. Right now Im looking for specs on the NH 310 and 311 sm sq balers. However, Ill be interested in other equipment as well. Ideally Id like to find a site for attachments like tractordata.com is for tractors.

I have no idea whether there is a web site dedicated to this information, I have an old Implement & Tractor Redbook (1988) which lists the NH 311 and 316 balers, as well as any virtually any piece of ag equipment sold in the US at that time. General specs are: 14x18 bale, can make a bale 12-52 inches long, came with either spring or hydraulic bale tensioners, plunger stroke is 30 inches, plunger speed is 79 stroke per minute, pickup width at 61.5 inches for the 311, 67.5 for the 316, feed opening for the 311 at 258 sq. in., the 316 at 299 sq. in., weight for the 311 PTO driven, pull type at 2768 lbs., the 316 at 3230 lbs.

Thanx!! Does your book mention whether it can be rigged for wire too? It seems that the 311 would be roughly comparable to the current 565 and the 316 roughly a 570.

I might have to find one of those books as it sounds pretty useful. Are they hard to find?

Thanx again for your help...much appreciated!!

Both balers are wire or twine compatible. The I&T Redbook is included as a regular edition with a subscription to Implement and Tractor Magazine. As for older editions, I don't know how difficult it would be to find one. Here's the website Implement and Tractor
