Set Up and Installation

CONVENTIONAL SQUARE BALER
1. Locate a flat spot on the left side of the chamber 12” to 24” from the
rear of the bale chamber and about half way up the side.
SEE DIAGRAMS ON PAGE 3 & 4
2. Tape the drilling template (D-8) onto the flat location and drill the
holes using the sizes indicated on the template. File any burrs from
the holes once the drilling is completed.
NOTE: The sloped (leading) edge of the sensor plate must face
the plunger (opposite the direction of the bale movement).
3. Now repeat steps 1 and 2 on the right side of the chamber.
NOTE: Your moisture tester uses 2 moisture sensor pads con-
nected to the chamber on the left and the right side.
4. Mount the sensor assemblies on the left and right side using the
hardware provided.
5. Place the sensor inside the chamber and place bolts (D-1) through
the sensor pad and through the chamber as shown in (Location A).
Attach washer (D-2) and nut (D-3) to bolt (D-1) but do not tighten.
6. Place bolts (D-1) through the sensor and through the chamber as
shown in (Location B). Place plastic insulator (D-5) then the plastic
washer (D-4) over bolt (D-1). Attach washer (D-2) and nut (D-3) to
the bolt (D-1) but do not tighten.
7. Now tighten the nuts and bolts at (Locations A and B).
8. Using one sensor cable per side, place one ring terminal per bolt
(D-1) at (Location B) and then attach washer (D-2) and nut (D-3) to
the bolts (D-1) and then tighten.
9. Before routing the cables through the baler, mark the cable that is
attached to the cut side sensor in the bale chamber as you will need
to know this later in the installation.
10. Most balers already have cable routes running from the baler to the
hitch area. If this is the case, follow this same route and use any
existing cable attachments. Route the sensor cable to the hitch
area of the baler so that is does not interfere with any moving parts.
Secure the cable with the supplied nylon ties (C-1).
