[QUOTE="cfpinz, post: 1692672, member: 2383"] I don't own a JD baler, but I've noticed some sort of roller in the top of the chamber that raises up at some point during the bale dump cycle. I'm betting it pops up to apply tension to the belts before you drop the gate, then goes down as the gate is shut and there's enough tension on the belts to prevent what you've got going on. Is that "flapper" (for lack of a better word) roller extending up when you dump a bale each time? Sounds like there's some sort of issue with your hydraulic tensioning system, whether it's lack of flow/pressure from the tractor or a seal/leak/air pocket on the baler itself. Please let us know what the cure is once you find it. [/QUOTE]
