Adjust Tractor Hydraulic Outlets

The tractor must have at least one double-acting selective control valve (SCV).

If the baler is equipped with the optional hydraulic pickup lift, the tractor must have at least two SCVs.

Check times with no bale in chamber and hot oil. Use the same flow setting in the extend and retract directions.

Adjust the tractor hydraulic outlets to provide approximately a 5 second gate opening time.

When lowering the baler gate, avoid putting hydraulics into float position. The SCV lever must return to the neutral position.

See Hydraulics and Selective Control Valves in the tractor Operator’s Manual.
