Part of the New Holland Repair Manuals.
An hour from now you could have a Bale Command Plus fault half traced with this New Holland BR740 repair manual PDF open beside the harness, 1096 pages of factory service data (OEM 87352298) covering all four BR Series round balers, 740 through 780. Electrical coverage runs 186 pages: harness routings, connector pinouts, and component tests that finish at a reading you can verify with a meter. Hydraulic schematics map the tailgate lift, belt tension, and pickup lift circuits, and the driveline chapters take the gearbox and slip clutches apart down to the bearings. Square the tailgate against the factory inside dimension of 1562.5 mm (61.5 in), then pull the wheel nuts on 19/45-17 rubber to 380 N·m (280 ft.-lbs.). A guessed torque figure shears studs a mile from the shop. The text-searchable, bookmarked PDF is bought once and stays with the baler; download it and bale while the weather holds.
