New Holland 276 Parts Catalog

If you are trying to fix a New Holland 276 baler and you do not have the factory Parts Catalog sitting on your bench, you are working blind. I have been a tech for 28 years and I have seen too many guys order the wrong pickup tine or knotter assembly because they trusted an aftermarket parts list. This 76 pages Parts Catalog from Sperry New Holland is the same book the dealer uses. It has exploded-view drawings with reference numbers that match exactly to the part numbers listed in the tables. You need this if you want the job done without returning parts twice.

Pick-up Group: Page 26 Reference

Pick-up problems stop a baler cold. Page 26 shows the entire pick-up assembly with every roller, tine, and cam follower labeled. The part numbers are Sperry New Holland original numbers — not some cross-reference that might be off by a thread pitch. If your pick-up drive is skipping, you go straight to that page, find the sprocket or chain you need, and order the exact factory replacement. No guesswork.

Knotter Group and Twister Coverage

These balers came with either a knotter or a twister. The Knotter Group runs from page 30 through page 31. The Twister Group starts on page 46. Both sections include the needles, yoke, safety latch, and the complete knotter/twister head assemblies. I have watched a rookie spend four hours trying to match a replacement twister finger from a generic catalog. This manual would have pointed him to page 46 and given him the correct part number in under two minutes.

Does This Catalog Cover the P.T.O. and Clutch?

P.T.O. Group is on page 6. Clutch and Flywheel Guard Group is on page 6A. Flywheel, Gearbox and Connecting Rod Group starts on page 8. All the drive components are in here — bearings, shafts, keys, seals. If you are overhauling the gearbox, you will find the main drive gearbox on page 10 with a full parts breakdown. Do not open a gearbox without this catalog. You will forget which bearing cage goes where.

76 Pages – What You Actually Get

Seventy-six pages of factory part listings, not a reprint or a compilation from a third party. The pictorial index on page 2 lets you visually locate any assembly — point at the baler diagram and it tells you which page to turn to. Sections include Drawbar Group, Feeder Group, Plunger Group, Tine Feed Gearbox, Bale Tension, Wheel and Axle, and all the guard groups (front, rear, gear). Even the paint part numbers are listed: RED one-quart is Part No. 70365, YELLOW one-gallon is Part No. 70107. That level of detail saves you from calling the dealer for a paint code.

Compare Part Numbers Against the Machine – Why It Matters

Every parts catalog I trust lets me put a part in my hand and check the number before I install it. This one uses factory reference numbers like “50273” for the rope and “158585” for the latch control lever. You pull your old part, read the casting number, and cross it against the table. If it matches, you are good. If it does not, you look closer. That is how you avoid installing a clevis that is 1/4″ too short and having the bale tension lock up at full stroke.

Source Validity: OEM Sperry New Holland Print

This is not an aftermarket digital scan with missing pages and greasy fingerprints. It is the original Sperry New Holland publication. The binding is clean, the drawings are crisp, and every page number in the table of contents matches the actual page. I refuse to work from aftermarket parts lists on balers — the tolerances on baling equipment are tight, and a wrong part can cost you a whole season. This catalog is the same one dealers order from. Trust it.

If you also work on larger equipment, check out the Ford New Holland 853 1993 Parts Catalog – OEM Baler Manual for a higher-capacity baler. For a smaller square baler, the Ford New Holland 568 1991 Parts Catalog – Factory OEM Manual is a solid choice. And if you need tractor parts alongside the baler, the Ford New Holland 1915 Tractor 1993 Parts Catalog – Section: Supplement gives you the supplement section for that model. For a broader understanding of how agricultural equipment fits into the Automotive Industry Overview, this manual shows the level of engineering that goes into OEM documentation. Aftermarket catalogs cannot match it.

Is this the same manual the dealer uses?

Yes, this is the factory Sperry New Holland catalog used by dealers.

Does this catalog include repair procedures?

This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. It does not include step-by-step repair instructions, torque specs, or troubleshooting. What it does give you is every factory part number for the 276 Super Hayliner baler, organized by assembly group with exploded diagrams. If you need to replace a knotter finger or a drive chain, you look up the group (e.g., Knotter Group on page 30), find the part in the drawing, and cross-reference the part number. Then you order that exact number. It will save you the headache of buying the wrong part because the aftermarket listing said “fits New Holland” but the dimensions are off. Pair this catalog with a factory service manual for the best results.

How do I use the pictorial index?

Flip to page 2. The pictorial index shows an image of the baler with callouts pointing to each major assembly and the page number where that assembly’s parts are listed. For example, point to the pick-up and it says page 26. Go to page 26 and you get the full exploded view with part numbers.

Can I use this catalog for the 276 Super Hayliner with twister?

Yes. The catalog includes both knotter and twister groups. The Twister Group starts on page 46. The Knotter Group is page 30. Wire Guide and Wire Cutter groups are also covered. If your baler has the twister attachment, the parts are listed separately.

This is the kind of resource that keeps a baler running through a second cutting season without stacking up return shipments. I have used it myself to track down a discontinued drawbar bracket and found the cross-reference in the index. Access the Factory Manual and keep a copy on your shop tablet or print it out for the workbench. You will thank me the first time you need a new pick-up tine and you order the right one in one try.
