Guest tedroosevelt21 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 it was never recommended to hitch power driven driven implements clevis hitch to clevis hitch for the reason of damaging the pro shaft it is in most pro driven machinery hand books. chaats why one half of the clevis is removable on the tractor drawbar. but most skilled knowledgeable operators with years of experience would have known that. but in the model world any thing goes as long as it looks about right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tedroosevelt21 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 bad feeding usually 99 per cent of shear bolt problems a baler is a very balanced machine a big tractor wouldn't be running at full pro speed to operate a baler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.watson Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Shear bolt fail is too much intake usually as already stated here. I run a Claas markant 65 on a Deere 6920 and it is the only implement that makes a puff of smoke come out of the exhaust on every baler rotation. High capacity balers with wider pick up reels do need some grunt up front. A neighbour of ours bought a lovely second hand Massey conventional baler a couple of years ago, from brocks in thaxted. They set about using it and in the first 3 hours they broke 10 shear bolts, it was when the baler actually flew to pieces and came to a crunching halt that they realised that the pto was in 1000 speed.

They thought the new baler couldn't cope with the 12 foot swath from their Massey 27p. it was chucking bales out so fast the sledge couldn't keep up apparently.

mb86 Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Local contractor was told that their brand new NH would handle a whole bale going through it so being the idiots that they are, tried it, needless to say it made quite a mess. I couldn't count the times we have had trouble with the sledge being unable to keep up with the baler, without breaking any shearbolts I might add. I bet I haven't broken 10 in the 20 odd years I have been baling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
