INITIALIZING THE METAL DETECTOR
For models equipped with the metal detector, follow these instructions, referring to Figure 78, to initialize the
FerroDtec system. This must be done at the system start-up:
1.
Start the tractor engine and activate the SVC connected to the harvester in continuous flow mode.
2.
Turn ON the main and metal detector breaker (item 1 and 2). The LED light and buzzer alarm will emit
continuously. If the transmission is in FORWARD or REVERSE, it will move automatically to the NEUTRAL position.
The shifter will remain in place if already in NEUTRAL.
3.
Validate that the transmission is in NEUTRAL.
4.
Engage the PTO on at this time, or after the initialisation.
5.
Shift the transmission in REVERSE. The alarm will turn off, confirming the initialization.
6.
Shift in FORWARD, the harvester is not ready to harvest. If the alarm remains active, refer to the
troubleshooting section of this manual.
IMPORTANT: To initialize the system, the shifter must first be in NEUTRAL and then shift to REVERSE.
IMPORTANT: If the tractor engine is turn off for several minutes, turn off the control box main switch to avoid
discharging the batteries. Following every shut off, the detector must be reinitialized.
NOTE: Refer to the « TROUBLESHOOT » section to locate and solve potential issues.
