4. Stop the power takeoff.
5. Cut the bag along the edge of the tunnel, ending with the lower part, along the rear plate. The
rest of the bag can be left on the tunnel for the next flange.
6. Seal the duct by repeating the procedure described in Section section 3.8.
4.2 Machine settings
Make sure the machine is stable before
performing any settings.
4.2.1 Adjustment of the brakes
The resistance offered by the brakes allows control of the grain compression in the bag as well as
the stretching of the bag. The more the brakes offer resistance, the more the grains will be
compressed and the bag stretched.
The pressure indicated on the gadge must
never exceed 65 bar (1000 psi).
Higher pressure could damage the brake
cylinders.
Increasing the brake resistance
In order to increase the brake resistance, proceed as follows:
1. Open valve A.
2. Make sure valve B is completely closed.
3. Action the manual pump arm (C) until the gadge indicator (D) shows the desired pressure
level.
4. Close the valve (A).
Reduce the brake resistance
1. Open valve A.
2. Open valve B.
3. Close the valves when the gadge indicator (D) shows the desired pressure level.
NOTE: The pressure to be used varies depending on several
factors: the type and level of moisture of the grains,
the soil type and the tractor used.
