  • Today’s task is replacing the plastic bearing caps on the feeder tine bearings in a New Holland 311 baler. This is a critical task to prevent catastrophic damage resulting from west and excessive play of these bearings.

    Great video! (As you know, I don't have a NH baler, but I've always been intrigued by all of the different feeder tine / packer fork assemblies on the variety of NH balers.) Cool to see this one so up close, and always appreciate your thoroughness and tips/tricks in equipment repair/maintenance. Thanks for sharing it!

    I have a 311 I bought 5 years ago. It's been a good bailer, but I have to get new bearing covers as well, its getting sloppy. Thanks for the video perfect timing

    Had the same issue with the side to side motion. Unfortunately the rain was coming and ran with it that way. The sprocket that drives it, shattered and sent it all over the place. Thank goodness it’s fixable but the cost is outrageous. Doing stupid things to get the stupid rewards. Thank you for showing this so I can try to get mine back together!

    I changed mine over the winter. You are right, I can’t believe what CNH charged for them.

    Love your videos buddy.
    Have you ever used a needle on the end of your grease gun to grease these “sealed” bearings?

      I don’t grease sealed bearings because they don’t need it but also because too much grease in there will blow out the seal.

      I really didn’t have a choice. I bought a 273 that had been laid up for an unknown amount of time so all of the bearings were extremely dry. The thing sounded more like a someone dragging a sheet of plywood along a gravel road. It was pretty bad even turning it by hand. Once we pulled it all apart we found several bearings needed replaced but many of them we could save just from putting a little grease. The needle was the perfect tool for that in my opinion. But you are right, never over do it with sealed ones
      Thanks

    I am really terrified how changing my knife on my baler.
    I have no clue of how to set the timing if i change my knife.
    Will changing my knife affect the timing on the baler ?

      It shouldn’t. Get the operators manual

      @TheScientistHayFarmer  Місяць тому

      The plunger knife or the twine knives? Neither will change timing. However I do have a video that shows how to set timing. It’s pretty easy.

      @@TheScientistHayFarmer Only the 2 knives on the plunger, twine knives are fine for one.
      If i take them out and replace them and put them back again they won’t affect the timing and the needle arm wont get broken from the plunger is that correct?

      I have the needle protection latch pivot which says needs grease but cant find any nipples to grease at? also for the flywheel shaft but i have one for the flywheel

      To tell you the truth the twine knives on the plunger are something I pay to have done. Not because I can’t do it but because I don’t want to do it. Too much twisting and contorting. But to answer your question no-it will not affect timing as long as you don’t change anything on the timing chain.
      That being said, you should always double check the timing anyways. It doesn’t take but a minute or two to do.
      If I recall, you have a Case baler though correct ? I do not know how similar that is to a new Holland.
