D - PLUS Key


Channel 019 allows operator use of EXTEND and RETRACT keys to position actuator for service.

Complete the following check to determine if the convenience outlet provides adequate power to the BALETRAK™ Pro system.

  1. Start tractor engine.

  2. Press and hold COUNTER key (A) while turning monitor-controller ON.

  3. Continue to hold COUNTER key and press PLUS key (D) until CH019 appears in the digital display.

  4. Release COUNTER key and view voltage readout.

  5. Using EXTEND key (C), extend twine actuator slightly.

  6. Push and hold RETRACT key (B) until actuator stalls out in the fully retracted position. Note voltage displayed during the first four seconds after stalling.

    Convenience OutletVoltage (Minimum)9.7 V

  7. If voltage is less than specifications, install Convenience Outlet Kit AE50549. Only this kit should be used to provide a convenience outlet, due to its wire size, lack of splices and circuit breaker included in kit. When installing kit, attach power and ground wires directly to battery terminal clamp bolts only. (See TRACTOR CONVENIENCE OUTLET in Preparing the Tractor section.)

  8. Turn monitor-controller OFF. Turn off tractor engine and remove key.
