To adjust the packer extend proximity switch:
1. Start the engine and engage the hydraulic pump.
2. Push the green button on the packer control station to extend the packer to about one inch from
its fully extended position.

3. When the packer reaches the correct position, push the red emergency STOP button.
NOTE: To extend (or retract) the packer over a short distance, push the green (or yellow) button and
then push the red emergency S
TOP button immediately. Repeat the process until the packer
has reached the desired position.

back up then turn ON the pump switch on the in-cab control panel (see Figure 2-5).
4. Locate the packer extend proximity switch on the front right-hand side corner of the body (see
Figure 3-296).
5. Remove the cover protecting both packer proximity switches (see Figure 3-298).

This procedure must be performed by two people.
