Turn the tractor key to the ON position. Press the on-off switch (B) to turn on the monitor. The twine or net mode symbol is briefly displayed. Press and hold the twine or net switch (A) for 3 seconds to change modes. The icon for the selected mode is displayed and two audible beeps confirm that a change has been made.

If equipped with the variable core feature, press Variable Core key (C) to activate the feature. The indicator lights when the feature is on.

Gate Closed indicator (D) is on when the gate is latched and ready to bale.

Bale Shape Bars (E) indicate the bale shape. Bars in the green zone indicate tight belts and bars in the red zone indicate slack belts. The best bale shape is when both bars are in the green zone. When the variable core feature is activated, the bars are low until the bale diameter grows larger than the variable core diameter setting in the monitor-controller.

Digital display (F) shows the bale diameter increasing in 1 cm (0.5 in) increments from 77—160 cm (30.5—63 in).

The Near Full indicator (G) flashes and beeps twice when the bale reaches a diameter 11 cm (4.5 in) smaller than the bale diameter setting. This indication gives a chance to fill the bale ends properly—bars in the green zone.

Wrapping Started indicator (H) lights and beeps, and net or twine application starts automatically when the bale reaches the diameter setting. Stop travel and maintain engine and rated PTO speed during the wrap and eject cycle. When wrapping with twine, observe the twine arm pointer and twine pulleys on the baler for proper operation. When the twine application is complete and the actuator returns to the home position, Eject indicator (I) lights and stays on until the gate is opened.

When applying net to the bale and net application and cut-off are complete, the Eject indicator (I) is displayed and stays on until the gate is opened.

When applying B-Wrap to the bale, the application and cut-off of material are completed automatically. The operator must disengage the PTO when indicated on the monitor to orient the bale correctly during ejection. (See Monitor Display for B-Wrap Bales is this section for more information.)

Confirm that twine has been cut by observing the twine pulleys. Back up (if not equipped with the bale ramp). Eject the bale using the hydraulic multi-function lever. Gate Open indicator (J) lights during normal ejection.

The Gate Open indicator goes out and the Gate Closed indicator comes on, indicating that normal operation can continue.

A wrap and gate open cycle adds one bale to both the total and the resettable bale counters. The resettable counter is automatically displayed for 8 seconds when a bale is added.
