    1066 Hytran filter

    Just making sure before I change filter. You only loose a gallon or so of Hytran when you change the filter - Right?

    Rear wheel weights on 1066

    Thank you very much Randy. Yes, they are IH. I suspected as much but not sure and wanted to ask the more knowledgable.

    Rear wheel weights on 1066

    I have 5 on each side of the donut type weights. Found a casting# BW 516. Wandering what the weight of each is. I also have chloride in the tires. I am thinking I want to pull the chloride out as this tractor does not do heavy tillage. Most it will pull is maybe a 14 ft. disk but mostly dirt...

    1066 and JD530 baler pto - AGAIN!

    I finally stretched out the tractor hitch to front hole and in this position on level ground I have about 4.5 inches of the inside shaft in the outer portion of pto shaft. I am thinking this is not enough for when you go over high spots and it extends. What is considered maximum extension of a...

    1066 PTO Noise - Update

    Good point! Maybe I am interpreting the book wrong. I will dig into it again tonight. If that is the case, I am a little scared that the pto shaft will be hyper extended.

    1066 PTO Noise - Update

    Allen, According to the owner's manual for the baler the distance from the end of the pto shaft to the center of the hitch pin for the baler is to be 16 inches for 1000 pto. On those JD balers and I suppose other brands too, there is an add on piece for the hitch that slides over the tractor...

    1066 PTO Noise - Update

    Measured end of pto shaft to center of hitchpin on baler and it is 15 inches. The book says 16 inches needed. Put tractor/baler in tight enough turn(maybe 40% as tight as a full turn) and engaged pto and got the noise I was hearing in the hay field. Got out to listen and pretty sure it is coming...

    1066 PTO noise

    I am going to recheck this tonight. The owner's manual says from end of pto shaft to C/L of hitch pin should be 16". Only question here is that on a JD tractor that I assume they are referring to in the manual which is interchangable in the same hole as the 540 shaft vs. that 540 and 1000 shafts...

    1066 PTO noise

    I checked the relationship of the drawbar with the pto driveline last night. The drawbar is straight down the centerline with the pto driveline. I looked over the U-joints on the baler and cannot see any place where the yolks could have been making contact but would have thought if that was the...

    JD530 baler tie mechanism re-visited

    Well, I used the baler over the weekend and it does a great job. I think I will put it back on there and try it . I'll just have to figure out how to rig up the second string as it does not have the extra set of twine bins on left side of baler like I am told the 535 does.

    1066 PTO noise

    Was baling with my 1066 and JD530 baler over the weekend. When turning to the right there is a noise under the seat in the rearend that sounds like a bearing is loose or a shaft vibrating. It does not make this noise when turning to the left so needless to say I made all turns to the left. Now...

    JD 530 baler string tie mechanism ?

    I am finally going to get to use this baler for the first time. I've done a lot of small things to it since I bought it and thought I was ready to go but couldn't figure out why the string mechanism had capability for 2 strings and all the pictures only showed one. Looked at a neighbors and his...
