    NH 276 Baler misses cutting the string completely

    Thanks for the responses. I tinkered on it and started adjusting some slack out of the knotters. The twine follower needed adjusted, I ended up replacing the drive gear for the disks that runs of the cam. That really improved my endplay. I need to replace the bill hook drive gear and I think...

    NH 276 Baler misses cutting the string completely

    I have a NH 276 that will not cut the string completely every so often. Yesterday it was basically every other bale it failed to cut all the strands of the twine and as the next bale formed, it pulled the knot apart. I have good bill hook wiper contact, bill hooks look good, knife is sharp. I...

    JD 2240 hydraulics

    I have a high serial number 2240 with a loader. Every so often, when parked and operating the loader the front tires twitch when I use the lift or bucket levers. I have also had this happen while moving and I raise the loader and it snatches the steering wheel out of my hand. Seems like pressure...

    JD 2240 operating temp

    I have a late serial # 2240 diesel. My factor gauge is broken so I have wired in a temp gauge to keep and eye on things. While cutting heavy grass hay today. The temp was climbing to 205-210 under load. If I stopped and let her idle she would cool down pretty quick. Ambient temps were in...

    JD 2240 hydraulic pressure

    Do anyone know what the low pressure side of the hydraulic system is? More specifically I am trying to figure out what psi the oil cooler sees. If my understanding is correct, fluid flows from the trans pump to the cooler into the storage tank and down to the main hydraulic pump. In my manual...

    JD 2240 brakes

    It's got the independent pto. I've done this as a preliminary check but not when it's been worked for while. I'll have to check when I rake this week

    JD 2240 brakes

    It doesn't have a hydraulic cooler, but I will be adding one once this season is over. Couldn't hurt to do a rad flush. I reread my post, the running hot is new, it's the second time the brake pedal went soft.

    JD 2240 brakes

    This is the second time I've had this happen, both were with long runtimes. Once baling the other cutting. I was out cutting today and the tractor was running about 190-195, 100 ambient temp. Felt the brake pedal get a little soft, I could pump em up and get good pedal feel but then they...

    2240 hydraulic temps

    Awesome thanks. It just surprised me how hot it was. I don't have a temp gun but will try to figure out an actual temp.

    2240 hydraulic temps

    Quick question for the forum. My 2240 has a provision to add a hydro cooler next the radiator but was not there when I bought it used. Last fall when baling, the transmission housing was very hot, hot enough you don't want to touch it. There were no issues and it did great baling. Since I'm new...
