Installation of Moisture Sensing Pads
*Most balers will have a moisture system already installed on the baler. If not, follow the instructions below.
Note: If your baler does have a factory moisture system installed. You can use the factory moisture disc.
However, you will need to disconnect the wires leading to both sensors and tape them up. You cannot have
the balers moisture wires and Harvest Tec's moisture wires connected to the moisture disc at the same time.

1. If your baler is equipped with bale shaping pads, remove disc and use existing that will need to be drilled to
3/4" (19mm) to install new moisture sensing discs. If the discs are welded, the welds will need to ground off
for disc removal.
2. If your baler is not equipped with bale shaping pads you will need to drill a hole in the chamber directly
behind and above the starting roll (Figure 1).
3.
The mounting hole will be 3/4" (19mm) in diameter. Use a plastic pad (006-4641F) and place it into the
baler to use as a template. The bottom edge of the pad will be placed 1" (25mm) up from starting roll and
2" (51mm) from the back of the bale chamber. (Figure 1)

4. Depending on the baler the bolt may need to be trimmed for proper fit.
5. Tighten all of the hardware to 50 ft/lbs (68 N/m).
6. Make sure that the plastic pad is protecting all metal surfaces of the disc from touching baler.
7. Run the moisture wire harness (006-7307RB1) from pump plate area to each disc and secure
