  Welcome to the 21st century. With your battery, powered impact wrench. Good choice on staying with the battery that you already have, and Dewalt makes a great tool. 🙂🙏🙂

  I did heat them some, access is pretty crappy. Turned out they had some serious thread locker on them that didn’t let go until I could put heat directly on the shafts.

  Nice work. Looking back at some other repair videos on this baler, it looks like you’ve done a fairly extensive renew on the Vermeer. I’m thinking about a stem to stern rebuild on my JD round baler so these videos give me a feel for how far one might go with a refurb before moving on to another baler. I should think the bearings, roller, sprockets and chains pretty much have this baler in near like new condition with many more years of dependable service out of it for a fraction of the price of a new or late model used baler.

  @farmerpete12 күн бұрын

  Thank you. I’m glad you find some of this helpful. Over the years this baler has been pretty reliable but moving parts wear out eventually. I think it’s up in pretty good shape now.

  I have a 605XL Pete. I agree with you about how well built they are! Same for me also about the electrical, only issue I've had is the connection pins. Mine has net, but I prefer sisel twine. I replaced all of the pickup teeth with aftermarket ones. Don't ever do that! They're not worth a s**t! I literally just bought a new set from Vermeer this afternoon. I had a Gehl before, it was good, but then I didn't know any different. I got rid of that when Gehl quit making parts for them, and just 1 400 mi trip for a used part, with a lot of hay raked and ready to bale was why I got rid of it. Compared to it, the Vermeer is like a Cadillac! But now with the M and N models, it's obsolete, but I'm happy with it! Probably my greatest need for it is new belts sooner than later.

  @farmerpeteАй бұрын
