Round Baler cog wheel

[Viconacrobat93]

Is it possible to replace a 38 teeth cog wheel on a Deutz Baler mp135 (that drives the feeding auger) with one that has 35 teeth off of an MP130?

Can't find a 38teeth one and I'm getting desperate now to cut the crop. Any help greatly appreciated.Thanks

Are we talking about chain sprockets here?

It does drive a chain yes

A chain goes around that

I can supply a blank sprocket to Suit but you will need to find someone to machine the old one off and weld the new one on..

That's great has yours 38 teeth? Where are you based?

You'd need to check that the other sprocket and hence the chain are the same as well as the shaft the sprocket goes on. If they are I can't see why it wouldn't work, just your rotor will turn slower.
Parts manuals are available for free download on the Kverneland website.
Have you tried Vicon and Kuhn dealers for the sprocket?

Curiosity got the better of me so I checked the parts books. The 38 tooth sprocket, part number VF16619987 is listed for both the 130 and the 135.

Thanks, yes that's what my mechanic said. Would just turn it slower. It's strange then if the parts manual has them listed as the same number when they have different numbers of teeth

The 130 manual states 38 teeth so there's either been an update during production of the 130 or the 35 tooth sprocket is off something else.
Is there a part number on the 35 tooth sprocket you've got?

No its some breaker that sent me a picture of it. It must be factory issue as it's the exact same factory colour as the 38 tooth one and centre bore

Could be off another Vicon model. Go with the manual and part number.

Ya. Do you think it could work? Get me out of a hole for now?

I can supply almost any sprocket size and tooth count and quality chains. Sent direct from supplier.

Grand it's 12" and 38 teeth. How much would that be?

What pitch of chain? Can you measure link length or tell me size? Remember these are blank sprockets that have to be turned out inside and welded on. Not hard for an engineer and these sprockets are heat treated and cheap!

Excuse me if this is a stupid comment, but my eyes are not good and I regularly read a 5 as an 8. It's not as simple as a printer's error, is it? Manufacturers are not going to make two almost identical parts if one will do!

It does drive a chain yes

If the shaft and chain size are the same I would put the slightly smaller sprocket on and get on with the job
