3) The system has air in it. If this is the issue you really need to have someone that knows a little about these balers help you. They can be a real PIA to bleed. You need to have the pump turning and loosen the out put line to bleed the air out of the pump. It will not self bleed hooked up to the control/regulator valves. After the pump is pumping air free oil then you work your way down stream toward the cylinder that moves the twine arms. I have an attachment that I turn with a drill to turn the pump. It is very hard to do with just the PTO running. Plus it is not the safest thing to do either.

The way I bleed twine pumps was on the baler with the pto running. It's simple to cycle the pump to get the air out. I don't mean to imply the pumps are easy to bleed because they're not. All one needs to do is lock tailgate & raise tension arm to where "3" shows in bale size window,open flow control valve(CCW) wide open,with engine running,engage pto and pull the rope to cycle twine arms. Just keep pulling rope & cycling while pressurizing the pump reservoir with air.. BTDT many times when installing new pump or filter.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let�s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I�ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
