Part of the Case IH Repair Manuals.
Case IH service manual 48182662, 1st edition August 2017, is the book to have open on the fender when you pull the gearbox fill plug, re-splice a belt or hook a spring scale to the net. It covers RB455, RB465 and RB565 round balers from PIN YGN192828 and above, in Hay, Silage, Rotor Feeder, Rotor Cutter and Premium versions.
Guessing on a baler costs you. An orifice fitted backwards, a density relief set by feel or a slip clutch nobody checked can mean a second teardown while the hay lies in the windrow.
It covers the main gearbox and clutches and every hydraulic circuit with its schematic. It also covers Deluxe and ISOBUS electrics with wiring schematics and fault codes, plus the pickup, rotor, belts, net and twine.
