Welding on Round Baler Equipped with ISOBUS Monitor-Controller

E67754
E67754-UN-07SEP12

A - Wire Harnesses

B - Electronic Control Unit

Stray currents from the welding process can damage electronic components. To avoid damage to such components, do the following before welding on the baler:
  1. To avoid any potential damage to tractor electronics, disconnect the tractor from the baler (7-pin light wire harness, PTO, hydraulic hoses, safety chain, and hitch).
  2. Disconnect the baler wire harness from the ISOBUS connector on the tractor.
  3. Disconnect the wire harnesses (A) from the electronic control unit (B) located on the upper right side of the baler.
  4. If wire harnesses are near the area to be welded, move them to avoid heat damage.
  5. Do not weld near electronic control units. If welding is required near one, remove the control unit from the baler.
  6. Do not attach welder ground cable to a rotating shaft or on the opposite side of a bearing because of potential arcing damage to bearings.
  7. Connect welding ground cable on baler frame near the point to be welded.

When the welding is completed, reconnect or reinstall components.
