When I run the baler empty it sounds ok no unusual noises, but if I go back and listen with a full bale rolling in it I hear a kind of growling coming from the big drum. Anyone think this is serious. How big a job is it to take off the pickup to get the drum out. Here in Montana have a while till haying but trying to line this baler out.

I would guess a bearing as well. Be sure to find it and get it fixed. I have seen several catch fire and burn completly up.

Sounds like a a lower roller bearing. I've found that the 2 bottom rollers in the tailgate are ussuallythe first to give a problem. They carry the whole weight and are right in the dirt of the bale. Remember the bottom door roller is located to act as the pinch point of the hay feeding into the bale for more density. We have got one of the infrared temp meters to measure bearing temps to find those problem bearings

Sounds like a bearing going out. It's sometimes hard to locate which bearing. Possibly you could feel bearings carefully with the machine and tractor turned off to see if any are hot. I don't think you have to take the pickup off to get to the bearings in the big drum, I think you attack them from the sides. I would like to know as I have a 505i also.
