The twine knotter is where a rectangular baler earns or loses its season, and this 49-page Gehl 3210, 3250 parts catalog PDF (OEM ID 904781) breaks it down to the bill hook, twine disc, and knife before widening to the rest of both balers. Exploded views cover the frame and wheels, drawbar and PTO supports, flywheel clutch, main drive with its ring and pinion set, pickup and overrunning clutch, and both PTO shaft sections, with a numerical index for cross-referencing a part number to its assembly. Packer drives get separate breakdowns for the 3210 and the 3250, so you buy for the baler in your shed. Order accessories by number as well: 805099 for the quarter turn bale chute, 805102 for the 51-inch (1295 mm) wagon pole. A guessed part number means hay on the ground and the wrong gear in the mail. Bookmarked, text-searchable, and bought once, it stays yours for as long as this baler runs.

Gehl 3210/3250 Rectangular Baler Common Problems This Manual Covers
Gehl 3210/3250 baler knotter bill hook, twine disc, or knife part number hard to identify
Check the Twine Knotter Assembly exploded view on page 36 and match the bill hook, twine disc, knife and retainer to their reference numbers, then read the part numbers off the facing list. Verify the knotter clutch, dog, shaft and bushings in the Twine Knotter & Controls section on page 34 before ordering, so one parts run covers it.
Manual Section: Twine Knotter Assembly p. 36Shear bolt part number needed for the flywheel and clutch assembly after a sheared bolt
Check the Flywheel and Clutch Assembly diagram on page 10 to find the shear bolt, driving dog and pawl pin by reference number, then pull the part numbers from the list on page 11. Verify the clutch facing, clutch plate and pressure plate numbers in the same list. Keep spare shear bolts on hand so you stay in the field.
Manual Section: Flywheel and Clutch Assembly p. 10Packer drive gearbox and packer crank parts ordered from the wrong model's list
Verify which baler you have before ordering. The 3210 packer and packer drive, including the packer crank, cross shaft, bevel gear and packer gear box housing, starts on page 18. The 3250 crank, gear box, arm and compression rod are on page 20. Match the reference number on the exploded view, then read the part number.
Manual Section: Packer and Packer Drive p. 18Pickup finger, spider, or overrunning clutch part number needed to rebuild a damaged pickup
Check the Pickup exploded view on page 38 for fingers, bars, spiders, arms and the stripper mount. The overrunning clutch is broken out separately on page 42, down to the sprocket, roller and hub. For bent strippers, the windguard or a gauge wheel arm, use the Pickup Sheet Metal, Windguard & Gauge Wheel pages starting at page 40.
Manual Section: Pickup p. 38Rear telescoping PTO U-joint, cross kit, or shield part number needed for a worn driveline
Inspect which half of the driveline is worn before ordering. The rear telescoping section on page 44 lists the U-joint, clutch yoke, cross kit, shield support bearing and shield. The front fixed-length section on page 43 carries its own yoke, slide collar, end yoke, cross kit and shield, so order from the matching page.
Manual Section: Rear PTO (Telescoping) Section p. 44Roller chain, offset link, or connecting link part number needed when a drive chain breaks
Check the Chains pages starting at page 16 for the roller chain, offset link, connecting link, roller link and plain coupler for each drive. Verify the sprockets against the Main Drive and Idlers list on page 14, including the idler sprockets and pickup sprocket, so the new chain runs on matching parts and you get back to baling.
