3.2.3Parking Brake
The parking brake is used to secure the Big Pack Baler
from rolling away accidentally, especially when the Big
Pack Baler is disconnected from the tractor.
The crank (1) of the parking brake is located at the left
side of the Big Pack Baler under the baling channel.
Set the parking brake:
• Turn the crank anticlockwise until the resistance
grows noticeably greater.
Release the parking brake:
• Turn the crank anticlockwise until the brake cable is
slightly slack.
Crank gear on the parking support:
The crank (2) can be attached to the head of the parking
support in both positions, (a) and (b).
Position a) Direct transmission ratio 1:1 for quickly
cranking the parking support up and down.
Position b) Gear reduction for cranking the Big Pack
Baler up and down if the Big Pack Baler is
resting on the support base.

3.2.2Hydraulic Support Base (Optional)
It is also possible to park the Big Pack Baler with a
hydraulic support base.
The hydraulic support base can be extended and
retracted with the corresponding valve on the tractor.
To extend the support base:
• From the driver’s cab on the tractor, extend the
support base until it is resting firmly on the ground.
• It is absolutely essential then to close the ball valve
(1) on the head of the support base.
If the ground is soft, enlarge the footprint
of the support base (3) by placing a
wooden plank underneath.
Retracting the support base:
• First, open the ball valve (1) on the head of the
support base.
• Then retract the support base from the driver’s cab
on the tractor.
