Good Morning Gents. My brother Tim purchased a Case/IH 3650 RD baler last summer to bale hay with and we tried to bale up some Forage Sorghum with it. The Sorghum was over 10 ft tall when it was cut using a Vermeer DiscPro 1030 and the stalks were still fairly long in the swaths. We had a lot of trouble getting the bale to start, I have heard that is a common problem with this model baler.

The belts are worn very smooth and I think new belts with some type of tread would have helped a lot. My queston is, has any of you tried different styles of belting on this type of baler that helped to get a bale started when baling larger size crop residue? We are gpoing to replace the belts and plan on baling Sorghum and corn Stover this year. You might try a diamond tread like John Deere used when they had problems with their vertical chamber balers.

Another thing if the mower conditioner is leaving the stalks long in the windrow, try conditioning the forage sorghum more aggresive I think you will find the bales start easier in the baler. We have also baled for people who under conditioned and by raking the windrow found it would help the bales start better. We normally swath and bale around 3000 acre of forage sorghum per year and some of it can get really big, I'll bet its not easy to get it dry to bale in your area. I have found some 11 inch wide belting that is the Rough top Herringbone for $3.95/ft. That I'm going to use on the baler. Thanks for all the info on this. Just putting any type belt on a round hay baler will not work.
A baler belt must have cross section reinforcement, so when it is under stress it will not deform. The conveyor belts do not have this construction. Also the conveyor belts rubber is softer and will cause premature wear, tracking problems and increase the baler's need for HP. You are best to purchase baler belting. Just Google Baler belts and you will see the true baler belting suppliers.
