11.Special care is required when equipment is being coupled

to the tractor or detached from the tractor!

12.Ballast weights must always be attached in the

prescribed way at the designed attachment points!

13.Observe the permitted axle loads, total weights and

transport dimensions!

14.Check and fit transport equipment – e.g. lighting, warning

signs and, if necessary, protective equipment!

3. Safety and accident prevention

regulations

1. Take note of both the regulations in these operating

instructions and also the general safety and accident

prevention regulations!

2. The attached warning and information signs give

important advice for safe operation. Observing them will

improve your safety!

3. When using public roads, make sure you observe the

relevant traffic regulations!

4. Make sure you are familiar with all equipment and

controls before you begin working with the machine. It

is too late when you are operating the machine!

Any unauthorised alterations to the machine render any

liability for damage undertaken by the manufacturer

null and void.

2. Service life of the machine

• The service life of this machine strongly

depends on proper use and maintenance as

well as the operating conditions.

• Permanent operational readiness as well as

long service life of the machine can be

achieved by observing the instructions and

notes of these operating instructions.

• After each season of use, the machine must

be checked thoroughly for wear and other

damage.

• Damaged and worn parts must be replaced

before placing the machine into service again.

• After the machine has been used for five

years, carry out full technical inspection of the

machine. According to the results of this

inspection, a decision concerning the

1.4 Working method and functional principles of the round balers

The round baler compresses agricultural baling material such as hay, straw and grass silage etc. into round bales.

After the baling process is completed, the round bale is wrapped with binding twine or net according to the selected

type of wrapping material. Due to their shape, the round bales can be easily stored, transported and processed.

The working method is described as follows:

The material to be baled is collected in a swath and taken up by the pick-up, transported to the middle of the pick-up

and fed into the bale chamber. In the bale chamber, the baling material is removed and rolled up by the revolving

floor conveyor bars. More material enters the chamber forming cylindrical round bales which become increasingly

compressed according to the amount of baling material fed in.

The baling pressure indicators for the respective side of the bale are located on the left and right front side of the

machine. The wrapping process must be initiated if the desired baling pressure is reached.

The wrapping process is activated hydraulically or manually using an activation cord depending on the machine

version. After the wrapping process has been completed, the finished bale is ejected from the bale chamber with the

tailgate open.

Preparing the round baler

• The PTO shaft should be completely switched off during service, maintenance or repair

work on the round baler.

• Switch off the tractor engine and remove the ignition key.

• Only use universal drive shafts which have been approved by the manufacturer with the

corresponding overload coupling.

• Only mount or remove the universal drive shaft when the PTO shaft and tractor engine is

switched off and the ignition key removed!

• Hydraulic hoses, electric cables and plastic cords should be laid in such a way that they do

not become taut when driving around corners or touch the tyres of the tractor.

• Be especially careful on and around the tractor when hitching or unhitching the round baler!

The maximum PTO speed of the round baler is 540 rpm.

Switch off the PTO shaft immediately if the round baler becomes blocked.

2.2 Fitting the drawbar to the tractor

The drawbar on the round baler can be hitched in various ways (at the top in the trailer coupling; at the bottom e.g.

swinging drawbar). It must be mounted and adjusted according to the attachment options for the tractor.

• The round baler should be positioned on a firm base and secured against rolling away

before work commences.

• Take special care when hitching the round baler to the tractor. Make sure that no-one is

standing in the danger area of the tractor and the round baler.

• Switch off the tractor engine and remove the ignition key after completed hitching.

• Secure the tractor and round baler against rolling away.

The following should be strictly observed during assembly work on the drawbar:

• The notches on the slots must be in the same position on both sides of the drawbar.

• First tighten the screws in the round holes. Make sure that the notches on the slots are

engaging.

• Only then should the screws in the slots be tightened.

Preparing the round baler

Drawbar assembly for low hitching

Drawbar height adjustment

Drawbar assembly for top hitching

Mount the drawbar (1) into the top fastening holes on

the mounting (2) of the front cross carrier. A description

of how to adjust the height of the drawbar is given later

on in this chapter.

Turn the drawbar (1) by 180 degrees along the longitu-

dinal axis and mount into the lower hole in the

mounting (2).

For optimal lifting by the pick-up, the round baler must

be hitched to the tractor horizontally, and tipped slightly

forward, if necessary. The drawbar (1) can be finely

adjusted as required on the slots (2). The adjustment

can be made when the equipment is hitched to the

tractor.

• Hitch up the round baler.

• Allow the machine to rest on the jack

stand (4).

• Loosen, but do not remove the

attachment screws (3).

• Move the machine into the required

position by turning on jack stand.

• Tighten the screws as advised on

page 13.

Preparing the round baler

• Before working on the universal drive shaft, switch off the tractor engine and remove

ignition key.

• Secure the tractor and round baler against rolling away.

• No-one should be standing between the tractor and the round baler when adjusting the

universal drive shaft.

To adjust the length of the universal drive shaft, hitch

the round baler to the tractor. The universal drive shaft

is at its shortest position when driving around sharp

corners. For measuring this, pull apart the universal

drive shaft and attach each half (1) and (2) onto the

machine and the tractor. The exact procedure for

adjusting the length can be found in the operating

instructions from the universal drive shaft manufacturer.

2.4 Cleaning and checking the starter rollers on the twin twine guide

Before working on the twin twine guide, switch off the tractor engine and remove the ignition

key. Secure the tractor and the round baler against rolling away.

The starter rollers are wrapped in adhesive tape to

protect against corrosion. Remove the adhesive tape

and clean the remains of adhesive from the starter

rollers. The pressure rollers (3) should turn easily. Turn

the drive roller (1) to check this. If the pressure rollers

do not turn or only turn with difficulty, follow the notes

given in the chapter “Service and maintenance”.

Preparing the round baler

• Take particular care on and around the tractor and round baler when hitching or removing

the round baler!

• Observe the max. permissible support and hitching loads for the tractor.

Connect the round baler to the hitch attachment, e.g.

top hich point (1) of the tractor according to the

instructions and secure. Attach the actuating cord (2) to

the tractor. Ensure that the actuating cord does not

become taut when driving round corners and does not

come into contact with the tyres.

The same applies for low hitching, which is not depicted

here.

Danger of crushing hands and feet when using the jack stand.

• Only connect the hydraulics when the tractor engine is switched off.

• When connecting the hydraulic hoses, make sure that the hydraulics on the tractor and on

the machine are depressurised.

• Lay the hydraulic hoses in such a way that they do not become taut when turning corners or

touch the tractor wheels.

Hydraulic connections

For operation, move the jack stand (1) to the top position

and turn the support plates securely under the front

cross carrier.

To do this:

• Release the load from the jack stand (activate crank)

• Unfasten the retaining pin (2)

• Move the jack stand into the top position

• Allow the retaining pin to engage

• Turn the support plates securely under the cross

carrier

Depending on the machine version, the round baler

requires up to three hydraulic connections to the tractor.

1. Activation of the tailgate/pick-up

2. Hydr. starter system (special equipment)

3. Separate activation of the pick-up (special equipment)

Clean the plug for the hydraulic hoses (1) before coupling

into the corresponding linkage. Make sure that the hoses

are positioned in the mounting (2).

Use Safety Chain

The safety chain (1) is used as additional protection of

tailed machines, if they should disengage from the

adjustable drawbar during the transportation.

Attach the safety chain (1) with the corresponding

mounting parts to the adjustable drawbar support of the

tractor or another stated hitching point. The tolerance of

the safety chain should be just as high that curves can be

driven.

The attachment of safety chain is not

compulsory in all countries.
