NH 848 Baler losing air pressure

I have a new holland 848 round baler that has me stumped. When rolling a bale I am losing air pressure and gets down to 20psi after ejecting the bale after 2 bales. Start baling with 40psi at start of roll. Thought I had a problem with air bags but without a bale I put 100 psi pressure on it overnight and did not lose any pressure. Only lose while rolling bales. Any ideas on what to check or what the issue may be? Thanks in advance for any help. Wayne
 
Air bag is leaking, wont do it till get folded. They leak on top where sun oxidizes them. Back when 855 were popular here changed several a year.
 
You may know this, if you need new bags, do yourself a favor and search the Implement alley archives for posts about air bags/springs.

IIRC New Holland gets $500 per bag, you can buy compatible bags a lot cheaper from truck parts places...SD Truck springs is where I got mine
