New Holland Super Hayliner 68 Manual
That is a lot of baling for one of those old hayliners. I would make a reasonable assumption of 200 bales per acre spread over three cuttings, you do the math that is a pile of hay for an old woden block plunger bearing baler! Depending on your feild you could see many more or less bales than the 200, drainage and quality of seeding play a huge role in the density of crop with out getting involved in the soil chemistry and fertility. If it were me, I'd be looking for a much newer and bigger capicity baler, those balers were great in their day but that day has long since passed. If 10 000 bales is what you intend on getting off of that feild I would upgrade balers. They do not make very consistant bales, both shape and weight, they have millions of bales through them by now, I think they were made in the 60s (I used one when I was a kid, and it was ancient then!), and the plunger is very slow (few strokes per min). This all adds up to mega headaches for that kid of acreage, and that number of bales.
New Holland Super Hayliner 68 Baler Owner’s Manual This is a High-Quality reproduction printed, full color and bound manual of an original OEM New Holland Super Hayliner 68 Baler – Owner’s / Operator’s Manual. I noticed on my New Holland 68. The previous owner had added a 3rd set of feeder tines in the middle of the original 2 sets. Hello I have the parts manual, and there is a triangular piece - a 'hay stop' - that seems like it is supposed to be near the inlet to the bale chamber. Like it hung from the underside of the twine chamber, with. Below are the general dimensions for the New Holland Super Hayliner 68 Baler. You can find the manual here.

It could be a great baler for some one to do 5 or 10 acres with, 50 scares me Just my opinion, but I don't think I am going to sleep tonight now. Parts manual for hermle. I tend to agree, thats a lot of acrage for one of those old balers. 50 acres is a lot to bite off at once if your just getting started. What size rake and mower do you have? What kind of hay are you going to be making? What is your expected yield? Where abouts are you from?
I ask these questions because it helps to match the capacity of all you equipment. Also making hay that averages 1 ton/ac/year with 2 cuttings and weeks without rain is a lot different then 6 ton/ac/year and only having 3 days to get it done from cut to in the barn.

I still us a 68 for my square baling. Over the past few years I've pretty much rebuilt it from end to end. Makes great bales now that I've figured out the feeder tines were worn away and since I went to plastic twine. I don't have a kicker, we load right out of the chute onto a flat rack. The baler will easily do a thousand or more bales in an afternoon. I just don't have the manpower to get that much hay in the barn in an afternoon! I guess what I'm saying is that the 68 not be modern, but it will work as long as you do if it's in good shape.

You still need the people power to get the hay stored away and thats the tricky, and VERY EXPENSIVE part. I have to agree with a few of these guys. I bale around 7,000 bales a year the last 10 years with a hayliner 270 and have very few problems. I know this is an updated baler from the super 68 but not too much. Granted, I do routine maintnance on the baler to keep it running right. If you were going to use that old boy I would thouroughly go through it this spring and replace anything that looks like it may not make it through the year. Easier now than when you have hay down.
And getting a manual will make life easier:) Good luck!
