I has a similar problem with my 46. Turned out that the cam track had worn right through and one of the cams was going through the worn track, causing the whole thing to sieze up. They are not easy to work on. I found the best was to remove the entire pickup, unbolting it from where it pivots underneath by the axle. From memory this is a welded up assembly and the only way we could get at the cams and track was to torch it apart. We then made up a new cam track strip from cold rolled steel and welded it in. Then welded the pickup back together.

Before you get in to ripping it all apart try taking the drive chain off and see if it will turn then. The problem could be in the drive chain assembly which tends to get overlooked when greasing as you have to crawl under the baler to get at it.
Good luck! Karl
