New Holland 848 Airbag Guide Replacement

I haven't the foggiest why the guide bent. Maybe the pipes weren't well lubed. Not the worst repair and I got very lucky to find a used one locally. Dealer price on a new is 400 something. Adam was a great help, this isn't a good one person job just because of wrestling the airbag.

Jacob, there are times when you say stuff and it just cracks me up! "Well hell"... "gets all slacky-doo", "now where oh where did my valve core go", "What a joy"...😅😂🤣

Another fine Boehm Farm Film.

Good to see your positive outlook at the end snippet, "it's time see what we break." Good part of being a pessimist, you can either say you knew it was going to happen and be right or pleasantly surprised... win/win...

[@boehmfarm4276]

It's sorta like actors saying "break a leg"

[@rogercarrico4975]

Sure made that look easy! Amazing what a come-a-long and a few wrenches can do in the right hands. 😃

Had to replace an airbag on ours this year on one of th first fields it went out

[@larrybg9293]

Good stuff hope all gets better.

[@jankotze1959]

Hope it works well, and hope to see an update

[@seadog6351]

Maybe the pressure differences were because of those rods binding a bit and then releasing somewhat over time? Thank God for "parts balers!"

Thanks for another farming adventure. Btw, your lens needs to be cleaned. Last few vids have had a blurry spot in the middle of the frame.

[@boehmfarm4276]

Lens for scratched a year ago going through the corn picker.

[@michaelmcconnell7958]

😢 maybe it could be polished?

[@frankscruggs4749]

Good video.

[@noahdiekhuis7286]

I had the same problem with mine sprayed soap water over everything couldn’t find a leak replaced all the hoses and fittings because that was cheapest still leaked down after 4-5 bales finally I filled it up to max pressure for starting then made a bale with the bale still in it sprayed soapy water over everything it was the airbags had small pinholes everywhere on top a old guy at new holland dealership said never leave them outside because the sun bakes the airbags. Hope this helps

[@boehmfarm4276]

Mine loose three pounds, but stay that way. Then I come back the next day and the gauge is where it was when I started. I wonder if the bags stretch?

[@noahdiekhuis7286]

@@boehmfarm4276 yea could be mine would leak down

[@crestviewfarm5229]

When they said the camera adds ten pounds, they weren't lying 🤣. I feel like I've lost a few pounds since August.

Ok. Didn’t know if it was an inside joke about Jacob’s goatee.

Replace your idlers in the bale chamber there worn out that what happen to you air bags to bind it makes the bars to bend in the middle kinda like out of time been there before

[@joelmollenkopf3767]

Interesting

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

Looks great 👍. Have you guys started harvest yet?

[@boehmfarm4276]

Will finish silage today.

[@Hinesfarm-Indiana]

@@boehmfarm4276 hey that’s awesome 😎

[@57fitter]

Get yourself a spray bottle and some dish soap and water. Spray every connection and the airbag. You'll find it ,oh,and be patient-- it takes a while for a tiny leak to grow a beard.

[@boehmfarm4276]

I think it's airbag stretch because because it'll hold the same pressure just three - five pounds lower than when I left the house.

[@storminnormanz]

do you still have the old 845 baler?

[@boehmfarm4276]

Yes

[@mr.mat1144]

2+2 still in the shop😢
