Available in Loysville, Pennsylvania, this New Holland 644 round baler for sale is a clean, barn-kept 4x5 hay baler priced at $8,000. It features automatic twine tie, an approximately 5-foot pickup head, a spring-loaded bale ramp, and belts the seller reports are in great shape.
This baler has reportedly seen relatively light annual use. The seller states that it has never produced more than approximately 100 bales in any individual year and has been used exclusively for baling good, dry hay. It has not been heavily used or routinely operated over rough ground.
The machine has been serviced regularly, pressure washed at the end of each season, and stored inside a barn when not in use.
Lightly Used New Holland 644 Round Baler
The New Holland 644 is a variable-chamber round baler designed to produce approximately 4-foot-wide by 5-foot-diameter round bales. This manageable bale size is popular with cattle farms, horse farms, smaller livestock operations, and hay producers who prefer bales that are easier to handle than larger 5x6 bales.
According to the seller, this baler has never been used for more than about 100 bales during any given year. It has been used only in good, dry hay rather than wet or unusually heavy crop conditions.
The seller also reports that the baler has not been worked hard or repeatedly pulled across rough terrain. That history may appeal to buyers concerned about pickup wear, frame stress, wheel bearings, and general fatigue associated with heavily used commercial balers.
Approximately 5-Foot Pickup Head
This New Holland 644 is equipped with an approximately 5-foot pickup head. The seller reports that the pickup works well and that the pickup teeth remain in good condition.
A pickup of this size can provide practical windrow coverage while keeping the machine compact enough for smaller fields, narrow access points, and traditional farm operations.
Seller-reported pickup details include:

Approximately 5-foot pickup width
Pickup operates well
Pickup teeth are in good condition
No history of regular use over rough ground
Used exclusively in dry hay

Buyers should inspect the pickup bands, teeth, cam bearings, gauge wheels, and driveline components to confirm their present condition.
Belts Reported in Great Shape
The seller describes the bale-forming belts as being in great shape. Belt condition is an important consideration when buying a variable-chamber round baler because worn belts, damaged lacing, poor tracking, or weak tension can affect bale formation and lead to additional expense.
Prospective buyers should inspect:

Belt surfaces
Belt edges
Belt lacing and splices
Belt alignment
Belt tension
Rollers and bearings
Tailgate alignment
Bale-density operation

No belt replacement date was provided, but the seller reports no known concern with their current condition.
Automatic Twine Tie with Seller Disclosure
The baler is equipped with an automatic twine-wrapping system. The seller reports that the twine system works, but the twine knives occasionally require adjustment.
The seller also recommends keeping the knife-closing mechanisms well lubricated. Proper lubrication helps the mechanisms close firmly and decisively after the bale has finished wrapping.
This is an important seller disclosure and should be considered during an inspection. Buyers are encouraged to observe a complete wrapping and cutting cycle to verify operation.
The seller’s recommended operating and maintenance practice includes:

Monitor the twine-knife adjustment
Keep the knife-closing mechanisms well lubricated
Confirm that both knives close decisively
Inspect the twine arms and cutters before the hay season
Test the automatic wrapping cycle before extended use

Simple Bale Discharge Process
Once a bale has finished forming and wrapping, the operator raises the tailgate using the tractor hydraulics. The completed bale then rolls away from the chamber using the spring-loaded bale ramp.
After the bale clears the machine, the operator closes the tailgate and continues baling.
The process is straightforward:

Allow the bale to finish wrapping.
Raise the tailgate.
Let the spring-loaded ramp roll the bale away.
Close the tailgate.
Continue baling.

The seller reports that only one set of tractor hydraulics is needed to raise and lower the tailgate.
Regular Service and Indoor Storage
The seller reports that this baler has received regular servicing throughout ownership. At the end of each hay season, the machine has been pressure washed and returned to indoor barn storage.
Seller-reported care includes:

Serviced regularly
Pressure washed after each season
Stored inside a barn
Used only for dry hay
Limited to fewer than approximately 100 bales per year
Not regularly operated over rough ground
Knife mechanisms kept lubricated as needed

Indoor storage can help limit weather-related deterioration of belts, chains, bearings, electrical components, tires, paint, and twine-system parts.
Tires, Bearings and Pickup Condition
The seller reports that the main tires are in good condition. The bearings appear to be good, and the pickup teeth remain in good shape.
These statements are based on the seller’s experience and observations rather than a formal mechanical inspection. Buyers should independently check wheel bearings, pickup bearings, roller bearings, chain tension, sprocket wear, and tire condition before purchase.
Bale Counter Requires Adjustment
The baler is equipped with a bale counter, but the seller reports that it currently needs adjustment. Because the counter is not recording accurately, an exact lifetime bale count is unavailable.
The seller’s annual-use history provides some context, with no more than approximately 100 bales reportedly produced in any given year. However, the total number of bales made during the machine’s lifetime cannot be independently confirmed.
Tractor and Hydraulic Requirements
Comparable New Holland 644 configurations commonly operate with a 540 RPM PTO. Depending on crop conditions, bale density, field terrain, and baler configuration, a tractor with approximately 60 PTO horsepower is commonly recommended.
The seller reports that this particular baler requires only one set of hydraulic remotes to operate the tailgate.
Buyers should verify that their tractor has:

Appropriate PTO horsepower
540 RPM PTO capability
One available hydraulic remote
Sufficient tractor weight and stability
A properly rated drawbar
Suitable hydraulic pressure and couplers

Suitable Applications
This New Holland 644 may be a good fit for:

Beef cattle farms
Dairy-support operations
Horse farms using round bales
Sheep and goat farms
Small and midsize hay producers
Part-time farms
Beginning farmers
Custom hay operators
Farms needing a backup baler
Buyers replacing an older 4x5 machine
Producers who primarily bale dry hay

Location, Financing and Transportation
The baler is located in Loysville, Pennsylvania, making it accessible to buyers throughout central Pennsylvania and neighboring Mid-Atlantic markets.
Financing assistance may be available to qualified buyers through independent financing providers. Approval, rates, down payments, and terms are determined by the financing company.
Nationwide transportation assistance may also be available through independent equipment carriers. Shipping cost will depend on the pickup location, delivery destination, dimensions, carrier availability, and loading arrangements.
