Cutting net wrap off baler rollers

samedi 30 novembre 2019

Those of you who run netwrap round balers in sticky conditions will know what a pain it is to cut netwrap off baler rollers. We have found that a roofing blade in a utility knife works very well for this job. Much faster and durable than a regular knife blade. 74D32788-6141-47DF-BBD1-5EB1E411281D.jpeg

BR7060 Operators Manual

vendredi 29 novembre 2019

First I want to say thank you to everyone that shares their ideas and experiences on here. This is my first post but I have used this site to solve many problems in the past. I have purchased a new to me BR7060 round baler and am in need of an operators manual for it. I have found some on eBay but they are pricey. So is there a better place to buy one or should I just go ahead and pay the price? I know the manual is a must. Thanks in advance for your input

Great Plains No til drill help

Hey Guys. I have a GP No-til. I think its a late 90's version 7ft. The slip clutch that engages the seed drive is not working. The arm moves when I lower it but it is not turning the chain to put out seed. The wheel engages and turns the 1st chain. It looks like the clutch is turn wrong. Its been working. I put in about 7 acres and it quit. Trying to get the oats in. Any help would be appreciated.

RTV x1100c Tranny Trouble

jeudi 28 novembre 2019

New to me RTV x1100c. Will not rotate tires unless they are off the ground.
Took the HST apart and found one of the hst pump (valve block) plungers in bad shape. Replaced it with a new pump (valve block).
The motor valve block appeared to be in good shape.
Replaced both motor and pump valve plates with new ones.

Put things back together and it's no different than last time.

Put pressure gauge on charge pump and I'm getting 70psi that is in spec

Put pressure gauge on P1 travelling port and can only achieve 200psi.

Swapped the high pressure relief valve with another unit I have. No change.

Any tranny experts have an idea?

X900 Ramblings

Well I put my 3ed set of tires on this week, and the miles hit 10,000.0, hours 1518.4.
The only problem, the muffler broke at the exhaust manifold, No problem, just put a straight out exhaust on it.
I did notice that the aluminum rear hubs are getting a little wobbly (bushings?) How much play before they need replacing?

BTW I tried to post a picture of speedo, I got this message:

DUH what did I do wrong? never had a problem attaching pictures other forums.

Plowing up orchard grass

mercredi 27 novembre 2019

Last year I had a rolling field that flooded too much to work and plant. I managed to broadcast an orchard grass/clover mix just to hold the soil. I kept it mowed till fall when it was dry, then chisel plowed and disked twice at right angles. The problem is how to get rid of the orchard grass clumps? Disking is just pushing them around. No way I can run my grain drill with these clumps in the way. I need a solution as my other two fields of orchard grass are pretty worn out and weedy and need to be replanted as well. I don't have any no-till equipment.
