[QUOTE="whitebc, post: 766024, member: 13938"] Thanks for the help, I broke the drive belt for the pump on Thursday afternoon, I got back to the field with a belt(1/2" shorter than the JD belt) and took about 3 hours of my time trying "to make it work", should have just went 30 miles up the rd and got the right belt :x, the twine pump would get so hot, from running the whole time I guess, that the paint was peeling off of it and eventually the pump just got to the point it did not have the strength to push the twine arms a complete round... I thought I had burned it up but evidently it just burnt the fluid in it, replaced the belt with the right size, new filter and drained as much of the old fluid out as I could... now it works great. Just for reference for anyone who has this problem, a 41.5" will NOT work on a system that takes a 42" John Deere belt :? Just learned a rough lesson that cost me 30 acres of someone else's hay to get rained on twice and about 2 days worth of work. :roll: This is only my second year messing with hay and I learn more and more every time I cut some grass down :) I really appreciate the help!! Thanks Ben [/QUOTE]
