Page 36
Before and After Use 3.2.4 Electrical Supply • Connect the lighting equipment connection cable (2) to the 7-pin tractor electrical system plug-in connector. • Position the cable so that it will not come in contact with the wheels. • Install the control console so that it is easily visible to the driver.
Page 37
Before and After Use 3.2.7 Hydraulic brake (Export) Certain export models are provided with a hydraulic brake. These models require a brake valve on the tractor. The corresponding hydraulic hose (1) is connected to the brake valve on the tractor. The brake is activated by actuating the brake pedal.
Page 38
Before and After Use 3.2.10 Running-in Period As the bale diameter and/or bale pressure increases, the load on the floor conveyor and drive also increase. The machine is designed for the specified bale diameters and firmness levels. Wrapping bales of excess size or increased bale pressure too frequently will result in increased wear and may result in premature damage to the...
Page 39
Before and After Use 3.3 Road Driving • Driving on public roads is permitted only if the bale chamber is empty and locked. • If the round baler is not equipped with brakes, the weight of the tractor must be at least equal to the empty weight of the baler.
Page 40
Before and After Use 3.4 Unhitching • Always park the round baler on firm, level ground. • If the baler must be parked on soft ground, increase the supporting surface of the jack stand. • Before unhitching, place wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent the round baler from rolling.
Page 41
Before and After Use • Disconnect the hydraulic hoses (1) and electrical connecting cable. • Store these properly in the corresponding receptacle on the twine box. • Disengage the hitch coupling or pull the pin. • Drive the tractor away slowly. RPN00065 III - 9...
