Case oh rs551 round baler (or hesston equivalent)

[ACIN]

Quick help needed please. First time this year pulled it out got it ready to go, however not turning. Have power to and from gear box the drive shift is turning all the way through the clutch assembly, however nothing else turns. There has to be a keyway,. a shear bolt or something broken off that drive shaft. I dont see anything in parts diagram etc
Im I too hot and overlooking something???? Has to be simple?????

I can about 1/a2 hour found leaky hydraulic hose on small cylinder above it. May or may not be problem must be fixed though

The main drive shaft from the 90' gearbox turns freely. Nothing "attached " to the shaft is.

None of the gears , chains, etc are doing anything. Maybe the clutch that shuts it down during ejection has a bug?????

Did you get it figured out? Broke down hay equipment is the pits, usually with rain coming in 12 hours….

I am not at all familiar with that type baler, but it looks like you were on to something there. If that little hyd cylinder actuated the clutch, or if there is a blot in there clamping two disks together and the bolt is missing? Something like that?

Hope you got it.
