Quick Way To Repair Belts On Deere Round Baler
Mahlon Martin, Greencastle, Penn.: “I came up with a quick way to repair belts on my Deere 435 round baler. When I find a cut in the belt, I use a cordless drill to bore 3 small holes above and below the cut. Then I double up a length of nylon mason cord and thread it back and forth through the holes several times and then tie a knot. The mason cord I use is the kind used to plug leaks in car tires (www.tractorsupplycompany.com).“This fix will last a long time. It works a lot faster than cutting a belt in two and splicing in a new belt section. It’s a quick, economical way to keep on baling.”
