JD4610 and Case IH 8420 Baler ... HELP!

[JParker734]

I own a JD 4610 Tractor and I want to pull a Case IH 8420 Round baler with it ... according to tractor and baler specs I am ok. But the owner of the baler is telling me my tractors hydraulic system cant handle it and the gate will not stay shut during the final stages of bale compression. Does anyone have experience with this ... ????? It seems that once pressure is applied and the valve is returned to neutral (closed center) the baler would be hard pressed to open the gate???? Anyone?

Unless your remote valve has an unacceptable leakage rate, the gate will stay closed.
