Tractor Models Without a Convenience Power Outlet

E39605
E39605-UN-27NOV95

Order a convenience outlet kit from your John Deere dealer. The kit includes 12-gauge wires and a circuit breaker. When installing the kit, connect the power and the ground wires directly to the battery terminal clamp bolts.

If equipped with the BaleTrak™ Pro or the BaleTrak™ Plus, the monitor-controller is polarity sensitive. The red lead from the monitor-controller power input MUST be connected to the positive (+) side of a 12 V system. Failure to connect the monitor-controller properly can damage the system or prevent proper operation.

To determine if the convenience power outlet provides adequate power for the BaleTrak™ Pro or Plus system, complete the following check:

With the tractor engine running and the monitor in the twine mode:

  1. Press and hold COUNTER key (D) while turning on the monitor. Continue to hold the COUNTER key and press the PLUS key (C) until CH019 appears in the digital display.

  2. Release the COUNTER key. View the voltage readout.

  3. Using the EXTEND key (B), extend the twine actuator slightly.

  4. Push and hold RETRACT key (A) until the actuator stalls out in the cut-off position and note the voltage displayed.

  5. The BaleTrak™ Pro or the BaleTrak™ Plus monitor-controller is polarity sensitive. The red lead from the monitor-controller power input MUST be connected to the positive (+) side of a 12 V system.

    If a convenience outlet is needed, order a convenience outlet kit from your John Deere dealer.

    If the voltage is less than 9.7 V, install a convenience outlet kit. Connect the power and the ground wires directly to the battery terminal clamp bolts.
