thanks for sharing your experiences of 6 years ago! You saved us a mess of time fixing belts on a 644. There is an easier way to release belt tension outlined in the manual but other than that, a good instructional video.

He seems like a pretty neat guy

Thank you for sharing this information. It most helpful.

Thanks for the help. Mine's a 450 but I will use your method.

Thank you, sir! Answered a couple of questions i had!

I have John Deere 7200 and the outer seal I replaced but still leaking like yours. I bought o ring to replace that piston that is on the spring but I grab it with my needle nose and it does not want to come out. I’m afraid to really get aggressive with pulling in case it is not meant to come out. Any advice?

Thanks I like your idea I’m trying it tomorrow on my 4430. Hope your doing well thanks for your video.

Really helpful, thank you.

I need remuve the oil

Do you remember the part number of seal ? Thank

Try using the wright tool

Where can I get the cables, joystick and mount for the joystick?

Thank you for sharing!

Thank for the good explication

The small plug in front of the filter is to drain the filter chamber so you can catch the oil instead of letting it run all over the tractor. There are two plugs atop this chamber plus a large one to reprime the chamber. This filter is HUGE and holds 1.5 qts or so. New filter gasket should be coated with new oil prior to installing. It is seldom a good idea to torque the filter on with the same tool you took it off with. JD says hand tight...it will not leak nor come off. JD says that even though the original manual does not recommend multi viscosity oils, it is now 50 years later and JD, CK-4, 15w40 Diesel Engine Oil is what is used today. With a filter change, this engine will take 17 US quarts.

Thanks 👍

John Deere has a special wrench for that back bolt on the starter.

This is a complete idiot - DO NOT FOLLOW this instruction. First off this is not at all how you release the tension. Follow your manual, raise the gate all the way, insert the large bolt (found inside the left (drivers side) door - that will lock the tension and when you lower the gate, you will have about 2 foot of slack. No need to release hydraulics, or spring - use ONLY THE BOLT! Next - you DO NOT need a four wheeler lol. If you still have the old belt in place, duct tape the new belt to the old belt and nurse the pto and you new belt will be in place in about 45 sec. If your belt is missing. - Release the pressure with bolt, lower the gate leaving room to get in, thread the belt by hand, takes 5 or 10 minutes tops to install a new belt. This idiot should have his computer privileges revoked for misleading people.

use the right tool for move the snap ring 2 seconds only !!!!!!

Loved the video and I learned a lot from ur video...thanks for the help

Thanks! Helped a lot with our 644!

Very helpful! Thank you sir

first take that delco starter and throw it in the river, there crap !!!!! not made in usa no matter what the tag says. most stuff from china. if you want a good starter utube denso starter john derre. as for a seal they do have proper gaskets/ starter wieghs bout 55#.

Great video. I was trying to figure out how to change them on my 5420 being the fact I’ve never used them before. This was extremely helpful.

Great job

Showed this too my wife and said that John has a 4 wheeler to change his belts on his 644 correctly, thanks John I’ve got new belts and a 4 wheeler and good for another 10 years.

Ty so much

You did it a great job pops!!

i want to buy this trailer do you sell this trailer?

Hope you are doing ok 👍

Good job, I learned several things that I needed for my job to work on a BR7060. Can you replace the splices in your old belts or just one belt instead of replacing all of them? I got one belt that was hanging on by 4 splice loops, started trying to put hooks back into the previous holes while still in the baler. That was hard to do so I pulled the belt out and it’s still on the back of the truck . The pins and hooks were much more worn than yours. Loops are completely open on a lot of the hooks and pins are about gone to.

Well I’m about to try this on a 648, we have the endless belts now but they are coming apart, figuring out how to pull the new ones through will be the tricky part but this video helps a lot on the process, thanks!

hi i have a new holland 650 and the rap system is jam does not come back it stays in rapping position and i cannot make it come back from the bale command

do you know how to add fluid to the bale tensioner hydraulic piston?

How many gallons of motor oil did it take ? Also How many gallons of hydrochloric tractor fluid did it take?

Yes John Deere is a rip off

One thing I found that helped is that if you wrap on some haywire to the extension close to the socket, you can guide it up to the nut more easily because the fingers don’t fit in very good

remove and install shaft with snap ring on it. on flat part on shaft

Thank you

Great video !! I have a different baler but belt swap should be similar . Thank you for taking the time

Wow!! That was a very detailed and educational video, full of old school tricks, and goodness. I could use advises from a grandpa like you, any day. thanks and God bless brother!!

How do the diamond top belts compare to the original mini rough top. Do you find the baler starts bales better?

I know its been awhile, but how wide is the trailer you loaded it on? I have a 5 ft wide trailer x 10 ft long, and wondering if it would fit? CFMoto says it is57.6 inches wide, which in theory would barely fit.

Seal puller would have saved you some headaches

so will you say this rides better then a 4 wheeler, do you feel the bump more in this force?

Sehr gut video. Hallo aus Texas! (Texas German)

You need help with your video taking skills lol

That’s cool. I’ve never seen a trap wrench like that. Got to get one. Thanks for the video!

Enjoyed the tour of your place. I was trying to figure out if that was water on the ground there. It’s been so dry here in south Texas I forgot what it looks like. I’ve got a JD rotary cutter like yours and just finished replacing the pto shaft from becoming bent from a frozen up slip clutch not slipping. I pull it with a 4230 just like yours. It will definitely cut large brush 2-3” in diameter. 4” material is a little hard on it. Where are you located? Thanks, again.

Thanks for your video. Yes, the 12v battery conversion is a lot better.
