Subject: Baler belts. When to replace


Ne Nebraska		When do you like to replace baler belts? Have put 10k bales through my baler since purchasing and they were not new when bought baler. Havnt touched them other than new pins every 1000 bales. Deere 567 baler.

Newton Iowa		I start thinking about it when down to one wear rib. I might finish the year if about done. If I have a lot of stalks. To do, before I start them. I’d get a set on hand .

Ne Nebraska		Can barely see the second wear bar now. Maybe I’ll just get a set to have on hand and at first trouble swap them out

Above is best place I've found for Deere Belts. If you are having trouble starting a bale or have weak places in belts, I'd say replace now. If bales start good and splices look good, run them another season.

north west arkansas		I was thinking maybe Deere recommends 500 also but I always do just once a season. I like Deeres pins vs the wire our new Hollands and Vermeer had but whatever brand if you run to long they are impossible to get them pulled out.

Driftless SW Wisconsin

On dealer recommendation I changed the pins at 500 bales, can't imagine changing belts at 500.

North Central Texas		Oh heck no. I'd be changing pins every two days. Those pins will make it to 2000 just fine.

northwest tennessee

I go to 1500 plus. On the belts, there was someone on here not a year or so ago that bought belts and were not JD belts and had trouble with them. They replaced them and didn't think you should buy other brands, anyone ever heard this before. I do know a guy here put belts on a Vermeer and got some cheap and it never baled as good of a bale again.

north west arkansas		Brent from my experience with JD, Verneer and new Holland was you could run them thru thousands of bales. The difference is when you go to take them apart. Once my pins or wires get worn bad they are near impossible to remove. Keep in mind my last new Holland was a 650 so they probably have a totally different system now.

NS Canada		Exactly, its more for ease of removal than failure of the splice. If you leave them in they break into about 8 pieces and then you curse and swear you're going to change them sooner next time as you fight each little piece out.

south central IOWA		So the belts are junk but a guy still has to endure the torture of removing the pins to replace the belts? Am I missing something? They're just rubber, right?

South Texas		I just replaced mine with a little more left than yours show, but mine had laces in poor condition and some tears in the belts.

I learned something today. The belts get way out of line because they’re new and grippy. A liberal dusting of planter talc got them acting right.

Wright County, MN

We had 5000-6000 bales on a NH 648 before we knew we were supposed to change pins.  Went from old chain baler and never read the book much until laces ripped out.  After that we replaced pins  @ 800 bales or so.  Sold it before long and never did replace a belt.

sc ia		My 567 jd has 13,000 bales and I've never changed the pins. They look OK to me. I'm sure now that I have said that, they will fail on the next bale.

Easiest way is to use a new pin and drive the broken peices out with it or a long thin punch.

NS Canada		And lube. Grab them with vice grips as they stick out and then tap on the vice grips, then get back to tapping the rest out as you remove each piece.

“These are the times that try men's souls.”		I replace pins every 1,500 bales. Belts when they get down to wear last wear bar on Deere. Usally easy 10,000 to 15,000 bales sometimes more. Even on NH balers I changed the pins the same. So easy to change pins before they break.
