Manual Actuator, Wrap Switch, and Bypass Switches

E52450-UN-02JUN08

A - EXTEND Key

B - RETRACT Key

C - WRAP Key

Once started, the bale wrapping cycle uses current settings stored in the monitor-controller memory (number of wraps, end wraps, and end wrap distance). This feature is useful to wrap an undersized bale when finishing a field. Monitor-controller resumes fully automatic operation on next bale.

EXTEND (A) and RETRACT (B) keys are used to manually operate twine actuator only. Pressing either key during an automatic wrap cycle will cancel the cycle and move actuator as desired.

NOTE: Twine end wrap spacing distance will be overridden when EXTEND or RETRACT keys are used.

For example, if right-hand end wrap distance is set at 13 cm (5 in.) and EXTEND key is pressed, twine arm will not stop at the 13 cm (5 in.) setting. It will either contact right-hand sidesheet, or actuator will be fully extended.

Bale can be finished using the EXTEND (A) or RETRACT (B) keys, or by pressing WRAP key (C) to start an automatic wrap cycle.

When using EXTEND (A) and RETRACT (B) keys, bale counter will not register additional bales.

Bypass switch on the baler harness can also be used to manually operate twine actuator in the event of an electronic failure. (See BYPASS SWITCH [TWINE WRAP ONLY] in this section for additional information.)
