Yep, never heard of using the belly pump as a clutch or transmission brake. But then all but TWO of Dad's tractors had live hyd pumps, or NO hyd pumps. Dad bought a '47 H and 50T baler when he got out the Army, did custom baling, a L-O-T of custom baling. With the Cub or Continental engine on the baler changes in widrow size were no problem. Neighbor we traded help with had a 55-T IH baler, and he put either his WD-45 or D-17, then eventually his D-19 on that baler. And I started driving the baler around 10-11 years old, I'd rake windows that would require me to Really slow down, maybe even stop, the old 55-T just kept chugging along. Finally he bought a pto driven IH #37 baler, not sure how I knew, maybe Dad told me, last year Dad farmed, I mowed 20 acres of alfalfa with the 6 ft Bush-hog, let it dry, went and hooked up to our 7 ft David Bradley rake, greased it, I could just rake two 6 ft swaths of the mower into a windrow, then turn and rake 1 or 2 more mower swaths into that windrow, which was about HALF the size of my usual windrow. With the 55T baler I didn't drive much, with this #37 I most have had 40-45 windows, about twice what I'd rake in 20 acres, but the Super H pulling that baler, NO live PTO, I ran along about 1400-1500 rpm in 2nd gear, had a L-O-T more but tinyer bales than before, and never even came close to plugging the baler. Yep, baler problems of plugging start with the hay rake. Oh, when I raked oat straw, I pulled TWO 7 ft rakes and raked a full round into a single windrow, Dad always ran the combine just under the oat heads, maybe a couple inches lower, not much straw.
