rrlund : A JD 535 is a hydraulic/mechanical tie/wrap system. The monitor only tells you bale shape.
You set the bale diameter stop. It then trips the linkage that tightens the hydraulic pump belt. Then you have flow adjusters that you can set to control the amount of twine you put on the bale. There is also a manual trip that uses a rope to do the same thing.
haybaling newbie: You need the PTO to be running. Then open the right side door. (CAUTION KEEP out of the chains!!!) Look at the hydraulic pump and see if it turns when you trip the manual tie rope. If it is turning and the twine arms are not moving you can have three possible issues: 1) Check to see where the flow regulators are set at. If some one shut them clear off then they will not make the twine arm move. I have seen many balers that have sold at auction or dealers lots with these valves shut clear off. Some one thinks it is funny to cause problems for the next owner if he does not understand the baler well.
2) The hydraulic system is low on hydraulic oil. You say that you added oil to the pump. Have you checked is since you ran the baler??? It may need more.
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.
