| In 2000, I was running a 327 & 348 Deere balers. I ordered a 8545 with belt thrower brand new. I liked the wide pickup and crop flow, but the plunger shear bolt sheared way more often then on my deeres. On the thrower end, with the bottom cut, resulted in a wagon 6-10 inches deep in loose hay that fell to the ground on my Deere balers with side cut. Ended up walking thru deep material unloading kicker racks and had all that loose material to deal with after. The bottom cut didn't hand stack like I wanted and the machine went back to Case IH after one season. It could eat the hay but the pairing with bale racks ultimately was a deal breaker for me. | |
