Prairie of Southern MN | I always wonder what I'm missing when people say the green ones make banana bales, and therefore get a red one. We also run a 336 that is far from new, and it can't make a bad bale. Only problems have been related to worn out bill hooks and knives (both easily fixed). I have also spent my fair share of time behind NH 273s and 276s. On those, the faster you go, the more curved the banana shape is. Some people hate the auger vs. the feeding forks, I think they both plug up if you overload them, difference is the auger is 10x easier to UNplug.
Another big advantage to the Deere that few people mention is that you get the centrifugal force of the flywheel working for you with the flywheel mounted alongside, instead of crossways in front.
Bottom line for the OP. Get the 346 and give a quick check to knives (both the twine, and the plunger head), and go bale. You'll love it. | |
