      Shawn MillerAug 25, 2025
      If you're experiencing a rotation/unload position sensor error (time-out) on your KUHN Farm Equipment, start by checking if the wrapping table is blocked by any items. If the table is clear, ensure that the hydraulics are switched on and check the hydraulic system and all hydraulic hoses for leakage and correct connection. Also, verify that the oil flow from the tractor is sufficient. Finally, make sure that the table rotation/unload position sensor is correctly positioned and check the sensor and the sensor cable routing.
