the bale pusher will not retract

0
1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
February 10, 2025

The Anderson RBM 1400 bale pusher may not retract due to several possible reasons:

1. Hydraulic Controls Issue – The hydraulic controls must be used correctly, and no one should be operating the tractor controls simultaneously.
2. Sensor Misalignment – If the LS_PO_R sensor is not correctly positioned, it may not detect the pusher's front position, preventing proper retraction.
3. Obstruction – There may be an obstruction in the pusher's path, preventing movement.
4. Improper Joystick Operation – The Fingertip joystick must be pressed three times lightly for automatic retraction.
5. Mechanical Failure – A mechanical issue with the pusher system, such as a stuck component, may need inspection.

Check these factors to diagnose and resolve the issue.
