John Deere 467, 467S, and 567 Balers have a hydraulic system that controls bale tension and operates the gate. This hydraulic system is powered by the tractor.

The hydraulic system uses four major components:

• Tensioning valve (A)-Used to direct oil flow, check flow, and limit hydraulic pressures.

• Tensioning (double-acting) cylinders (B)-Used to control bale tensioning.
• Gate (double-acting) cylinders (C)-Used to raise and lower the gate.
• Gate lock valve (D)-A two-position spool valve used to block flow of oil, both to and from the base ports of gate cylinders (C).
• Optional flow restrictor valve (G)-Used if baler is equipped with net wrap system and/or push bar.

NOTE: When gate lock is engaged, the tension arm can still be operated. This is because the

tension arm is controlled by a separate set of hydraulic cylinders.
