Before and After Use

3 Before and After Use

3.1 Commissioning

Before commissioning the round baler needs to be

fully assembled and matched to the towing vehicle

(refer to Appendix A “Commissioning”).

If a different towing vehicle is used later, the following

needs to be checked and adjusted if necessary:

• drawbar height (see Appendix A “Commissioning”)

• PTO shaft length (see Appendix A “Commissioning”)

Special Safety Instructions

In addition to the general safety instructions, other special safety instructions apply for round baler operation.

• The following general rules apply to all maintenance, assembly, repair and adjustment work:

Bring the machine to a complete standstill. Switch off the engine, remove the ignition key.

Secure the tractor and round baler against rolling.

• Maintain an adequate safety distance to all moving parts of the round baler during

operation. This applies especially to the baling material pick-up equipment. Remove clogs

only when the PTO has been switched off and the engine is at a standstill.

• Never stand in the slewing range of the tailgate or underneath the tailgate when it

is unlocked. During maintenance, assembly or repair work inside the bale chamber or

to the tailgate always secure it against falling using the shut-off tap. Switch off the motor,

remove the ignition key and disconnect the 12 V supply voltage.

• Should dangerous situations develop, switch off the PTO immediately and bring the round

baler to a standstill.

• Never let the round baler run if no operating personnel are on the tractor.

• The round baler can be operated at a PTO speed of 540 r.p.m.

(special version 1000 r.p.m.).

• Risk of injury from the cutting system cutter blades!

• When working on slopes, always deposit round bales in such a way that they do not move.

Should the bales start to move, they could cause serious accidents due to their weight and

cylindrical form.
