Our Hesston 5510 actuator has power, but is not extending. It is new to us. Seems to have some movement by hand. Any ideas?

Gathering ideas to try for a game plan. Tractor has a loader, with a heavy frame that blocks access to starter. Also distracted with many chores that all have to get done now. Anyway, once we have a plan we'll get going on it. Raining today, and no cover. We plan on cleaning contacts at...

Hello, We have a 1979 JD 2040. Starts fine when cold. We do plug it in when temp is below 30f, to make things easier. The starter does have some bad spots, but if you get past them (hear the click) it will go. Problem is once the engine gets hot, and you have to turn it off for something, it...

Thanks to all. After much testing lines and pressures, we decided to to try pulling (gently) the door open, once the locks were unlatched. Had a chain between the door and a heavy object and leaned on the chain. Door swung free, and then the cylinders had no problem opening the rest of the...

Never had to deal with the engine, but I count 3 exhaust ports. It was built in France. With rock bars down, pressure is zero, with arms up pressure is 2250. Cylinders will move enough to open locks, and pickup gets lifted, but cylinders/door will go no further.

Put new couplers on the baler, matched to tractor before we started. Checked fluid levels after rebuild and added. Will continue to check. Have a gauge on the tractor, it was reading zero. What pressure level should we have? Tractor serial number 204sa278236L, was built in France. Engine...

Hi- got a new to us Hesston 5510 round baler that won't open. It opened when we first checked it out, but noticed very leaky cylinders, so we rebuilt them. Now, with new lines, it would only open and close a little way. Checked the tractor on another piece of equipment, and that worked fine...
