I rolled up some hay yesterday with my new, to me, Vermeer 504 G baler. It worked very well. Had no problems starting bales and the bales came out solid and nice looking. I have one problem with it though. The wide belt on the right side is cutting into the belt guide badly. All 4 of the belts seem to be tracking towards the left. (This machine has been converted to all wide belts) I looked for an adjustment for changing the tracking of the belts (tilting a roller), I didn't find anything either in the operators manual or by examining the machine. Is there some kind of adjustment for this problem? Thanks!

Thanks JM. The belt rides hard against the guide when the baler is empty too. It has actually cut into the guide 1/4 to 5/16th inch deep. When I was baling, I noticed the belt moved away from the guide maybe 1/2 to 3/4 inch.

Doug,
couple things your belts may not be all the same lenght this will cause this to ride to one side. Also make sure your windrow is even, not heavy on one side. Check your manual can not remember if the 2 outside belts on a G are a little longer than the inside belts.
If you have narrow windrow make sure you go from one side to the other, do not run in the middle of the windrow.
the side where the belts are running to the outside, put in more hay on that side. I have a 605 k and one of my belts is a little longer than the other so I have to put in more hay on that side. I need to fix that but just have not found time to do it.
