Common Questions
1. How do I turn the system on/off?
To turn the system ON, simply press anywhere on the right side of the screen followed by
pushing the ‘Press to Start’ key. To turn the system OFF, return to the Main Menu screen and
press the POWER OFF key
2. How to get in the LBS/TON, MC%, and TONS/HR screens?
In the Main Menu press the SETUP MODE key. From this screen you can change your
application rates and how much product is applied. See SETTING UP FOR INITIAL USE for a
detailed explanation of this process.
3. The unit is stuck in the Application Rate screen.
In the Application Rate screen, level 1 must be less than level 2, and level 2 must be less than
level 3. For example, if level 1 is set at 16, level 2 must be set at 17 or higher, and level 3
must be set higher than level 2.
4. How does OVERRIDE work?
Override turns on all three pumps at full output. The pumps will remain at full output until the
operator turns these pumps off by pressing the OVERRIDE key again.
5. The flow meter reading is more or less than the programmed level set in the box.
Some variation in flow meter readings compared to the programmed set point is normal due to
factory tolerances on the pump motors as well as varying tractor voltages inputted to the
control box. The flow meter reading is an accurate measure of how much product is actually
being applied. The set points then will need to be adjusted if you want to attain a different flow
meter reading.
6.
Why don’t all the pumps turn on even at higher application rates?
The selections of what pumps turn on when are automatically controlled by the control box’s
flow rate look up chart. Thus, not all the pumps turn on at once and the combination of what
pumps turn on when is automatically controlled by the software. If you want to make sure all
three pumps are working, go to the Diagnostics screen and run pump outputs. .
7.
The moisture content displays “LO” or “HI” all the time.
When the moisture content display does not change frequently while baling, there is likely a
faulty star wheel connection. One of the first places to check is inside the white star wheel
block. Check to see if the electronic swivel is in the star wheel shaft and check to see that the
star wheel shaft is not working out of the block. Also, check all star wheel wires and
connectors to see if there is a continuity or grounding problem.
8. Should the battery connections be removed before jump starting or charging a battery?
Yes. Anytime the tractor will have voltage going up rapidly the connections should be
removed.
