supported by jacks.

5. Stop engine before leaving the operator’s position to adjust, lubricate, clean or

unclog the machine.

6. Do not stand between the implement and tractor unless the tractor brakes are locked

and engine is shut off.

7. Do not stand on or straddle a tongue when unhitching.

8. Never use machinery until all safety devices are in place.

9. Release all hydraulic pressure before shutdown periods.

10. Comply with Federal, State and local laws.

11. Use a Slow-Moving-Vehicle (SMV) emblem when transporting.

WARRANTY

Northstar Attachments LLC expressly warrants each new Bin Trailer to be free from

defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of one

year after delivery to the original retail purchaser or first user of the product.

Our obligation under this warranty is limited to repairing and/or replacing, at our option,

any part or parts within the applicable one year period, as set out above, which shall be

returned by the owner to any Northstar authorized dealer or to the factory and which

upon examination shall disclose to our satisfaction to be defective.

We may, as an option, elect to grant adjustments in the field through an authorized

representative and may thereby elect to waive the requirement that parts be returned to

our factory.

A new warranty period is not established for replacements. Replacements are warranted

for the remaining portion of the one-year original warranty period. The repair or

replacement of defective parts under this warranty will be made without charge to the

owner except for transportation.

Warranty does not cover tires, hydraulic valves, hydraulic cylinders, electric switches, or

accessories and other parts not manufactured by us but supplied with or as a part of our

product. We will, however, obtain and pass on any adjustments provided by the

manufacturers of such parts under those manufacturer’s warranties.

The provisions of this warranty do not apply to any product or parts, which have been

subject to misuse, negligence or accident, or which have been repaired or altered

outside of an authorized dealer in any way so as in the judgment would adversely affect

its performance and reliability. Neither does this warranty apply to normal maintenance

service and parts, or to normal deterioration due to wear and exposure.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS

HYDRAULIC CONNECTION:

Your Bin Trailer is supplied with Safeway or Pioneer tips. These will attach to most

tractor hydraulic systems. Contact your Northstar Attachments Dealer if other style of

tips are necessary. (Note: always clean tips of dirt and oil before installing.) The

hydraulic valve is set to operate with an open center hydraulic system. If your tractor has

a closed center system, you will need to replace plug @ ‘A’ as shown below. ) The closed

center plug is not supplied with your Bin Trailer.) Failure to change to a closed center

system will cause damage to your tractor hydraulic system.

HYDRAULIC OPERATION:

Your Bin Trailer is operated with a 2 function or 3 function valve. Handles 1 and 2 are for

tilting of Bin Trailer and lowering of the axle. Handle 3 is for operating the pick-up chain.

This function is supplied with a detent position that allows the operator to fully engage

the pick-up chain while tilting or lowering the Bin Trailer. Note: while operating your Bin

Trailer, you experience the inability to fully pick-up the fourth bin, you may need to adjust

the hydraulic pressure @ ‘B’. (Remove the acorn nut and turn screw clockwise one turn

for every 300 PSI. Your tractor will only produce about 2200PSI and the valve is factory

set at 1500PSI.) If this does not correct the problem, your tractor may not have enough

hydraulics to operate the Bin Trailer properly.
