JD 467 Belt Tracking Issue

Hello all. Was out baling today when I noticed smoke rising from top right side of baler. Took a look at things and noticed that belt is tracking far to the right when traveling over tension roller. Belt is tracking far enough to the right that the belt edge is rubbing the arm that the tension roller is mounted to. My guess is that the edge is getting hot enough to throw off some smoke. I tried adjusting the tension roller as described in tech manual, but belt continued to track to the far right. Any suggestions before I call service tech?

Thanks,
Chris

JD 535 baler with hydraulic pick up..... bolt keeps breaking

Hi there,

 

so we have this 535 baler since quite a few years already. Bought it used back when.

One problem we keep having is a certain bolt keeps breaking, at least once a season. Trying to figure out why.

 

Bolt I'm talking about is on the left side of the baler (driver side), where the pick up float adjustment and the hydraulic pick up meet. Would love to show you on the part diagram, I've attached the diagram with the parts list, wouldn't let me save jut the diagram unfortunately.

This bolt is where the whole hydraulic pick up and pick up float adjustment pivots, it's about 5 inches or so long and has a bushing on it too. 
In the diagram it is bolt #23. 

 

 

Why does that keep breaking on us. Anybody ever have that same problem and figured out what caused it? Is the float adjusted too loose, too tight? Is the hydraulic cylinder for the pick up not adjusted right?

 

I'm at a loss. Help!

Right baler for my tractor?

Hey y’all. What would be a good square baler for me to pull with my Massey Ferguson 240? 46 hp. $4,000 budget. Thank you.

Speed Control Plate adjustments

Hi All, I had to replace my speed control plate on my 06 RTV 900 last fall. Since then, I have significantly less power (even on slight grades, M bogs down on hills i could do easily in H). On the plate itself, there are 3 screws, 1 for idle, and it is set good. Will adjusting the other 2 help at all with this? And if so, can any one describe the process (which screw) for adjusting? I am also open for suggestions other than these screws as well.

Thanks.

N H 640 autowrap

I bought a N H 640 autowrap on saturday at an auction.  nice clean piece of equipment.  brought it home and greased it up and oiled the chains.  never used one like this before and the auctioneer said no monitor necessary, just start baling.  so i had some hay down and ready when i got home so i decided to try it out.   i realized there was a manual trip lever on it so i figured that would  be an alternative.  i baled until the arrow got into the stop zone and didn't see or hear anything so i stopped and tripped the lever.  it tied real nice, then it kept going without cutting the string and started wrapping again.  figured that was what it is was supposed to do.  then it kept going. so i shut it off when the string arms came back to the right position. cut the string and discharged the bale.  started it back up and it still kept wanting to tie.   after more investigation i realized the slide bar that rotates the knife cutting the string and stopping the dog on the wheel that runs the tying mechanism was not sliding back into place to stop the tie.   i can push it so its not frozen/rusted.   what pushes or holds that in place  after the string arms come back in the baling position ?

Thanks
