Upper Vertical Auger "Slams" Open
1 Fully extend the upper vertical auger
2 On the rod end of the hydraulic fold cylinder is a bleeder screw Open the screw a small amount to allow air to escape
from the system
3 After air has been bled from the system, close the bleeder screw tightly
4 Retract and extend the upper vertical auger If the upper vertical auger slams open again, open the bleeder screw to
let more air out of the system Retighten the bleeder screw and repeat
5 If the upper vertical auger continues to slam open after several attempts to bleed air from the system, call Balzer's
Service Department at 1-800-795-8551 Ext 134 (or press 0 for the operator)
Joystick Will Not Work
1 Check all cable connections
2 Check the inline fuse on the power cable going to the joystick
3 Check the voltage at the power connections If the voltage is below 11 VDC, the joystick is not getting enough voltage
to properly operate NOTE: MULTIPLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES TURNED ON AT THE SAME TIME MAY LOWER
THE AVAILABLE VOLTAGE FROM THE TRACTOR—TRY TURNING OFF OTHER ELECTRONIC DEVICES TO SEE
IF FUNCTIONALITY RETURNS TO THE JOYSTICK
4 If the joystick is still not working properly, call Balzer's Service Department at 1-800-795-8551 Ext 134 (or press 0 for

Problem
Calibration programming is stored in a permanent memory area This
Lost or Corrupted code indicates an error in the stored settings Check both indicators to
determine which has the error Attempt to recalibrate the indicator having
the error If error still present after recalibration, the indicator will need to
be replaced
Weighing Capacity The scale indicator data being sent to the host indicator is over the
Error maximum weight capacity This typically indicates either a load cell issue
or a cable issue Checking the scale indicator will determine which load
cell(s) have lost communication with the scale indicator
Low Battery The supply voltage to the indicator is below proper operating level Check
all power connections and source voltage
Unable to Display The number that is wanting to be displayed has too many characters for
Value the display to show The typical cause of this error is zeroing out the scale
with a full load so when the load is emptied, the negative number has too
many characters Zeroing the scale will clear this error
Lost Communication Communication between the host indicator and the scale indicator is
with Scale Indicator no longer present Check the PWR/COM cable between scale and host
indicators Check the power connection to the scale indicator If using
wireless communication, check all radio settings on both the host indicator
and the scale indicator
No Communication The host indicator has not been able to establish communication with
with Scale Indicator the scale indicator Check the PWR/COM cable between scale and host
