Trouble baling

[Manitoulin]

I'm baling hay with a John Deere Sileage Special 456, however, my Kubota 7040 after baling for a couple of hours, just looses power to the point where it just stalls and then won't start again, requires a boost, why would this be happening? Tractor is only a year and half years old. Noticed earlier, the kicker for baler wouldn't work or only work for about the first six or seven round bales. Not what the heck is going on, maybe under powered for the Baler?

Welcome to TBN
When you state your tractor looses power do you mean fuel or electrical? From viewing JD parts it appears 456 has bale ramp with it's own hyd circuit not push bar similar to larger JD balers.

Electrical, the tractor just shuts and die's out, won't start unless it is boosted after it cools down.

Have you tested to determine if alternator is charging? I'd suggest to clean/tighten all four battery cable connections. You could have battery load tested.
