Break-in Period
IMPORTANT:
Belt and drive loads increase as the bale size approaches maximum diameter. Frequent forming of oversize bales can lead to premature failures.
Consider period of approximately first fifty bales as the break-in period, i.e. until paint inside bale chamber has worn off.
Before operation, lubricate telescoping members of PTO hook-up liberally.
IMPORTANT:
On baler equipped with slip clutch, if slippage occurs during operation, always allow the slip clutch to cool down sufficiently before recommencing baling operations. Cooling time should be approximately 1 minute for 1 second of slippage.
On baler equipped with cam clutch, if slippage occurs during operation, disengage PTO and re-engage at low idle until cam clutch re-engages, then operate again at rated PTO speed.
