DANGER:
DO NOT CLIMB ON SIDES OF BALER. USE A LADDER OR WORK PLATFORM
WHEN WORKING ON TOP OF THE BALER OR OTHER AREAS OF THE BALER THAT CAN
NOT BE REACHED FROM GROUND LEVEL.
Using the “MANUAL DOWN” button, run
the platen to the fully down position.
Lock-out and Tag-out the power per the
instructions on page 2-1.
Relieve any stored hydraulic pressure by
pressing in on the solenoid valve pins
located on each end of the directional
control valve. Use a small blade
screwdriver or small allen wrench to
perform this operation.
Remove the 1/4” plugs in the “A” and “B”
port fittings where the hydraulic hoses
enter the back of the baler, and install a
pressure gauge in each port (2 gauges
required).

COUNTERBALANCE VALVE
Loosen the lock nut on the counterbalance valve and adjust the valve counter
clockwise all the way out.
Remove the Lock-out and Tag-out.
Insert the key into the key switch and turn the key to the “ON” position.
Press the “MANUAL UP” button and raise the platen to the fully up position.
While continuing to hold the “MANUAL UP” button, loosen the lock nut on the Relief
Valve and adjust the relief pressure to 150 psi. Use the pressure gauge in the “B”
port to read this pressure. Release the “MANUAL UP” button.
Press the “MANUAL DOWN” button and adjust the counterbalance valve clockwise
until the platen moves in the downward direction freely. Tighten the lock nut on the
counterbalance valve.
Continue to hold the “MANUAL DOWN” button and adjust the Relief Valve to 650
psi. Use the pressure gauge in “A” port to read this pressure. Release the
“MANUAL DOWN” button.
Remove the cap from the Unloading Valve adjustment screw located on the pump.
Press the “MANUAL DOWN” button again and adjust the unloading valve screw to
unload the high flow section of the pump. Turning the screw clockwise increases the
unloading pressure, while turning the screw counter clockwise decreases the
unloading pressure. With the relief pressure at 500 psi., the pump will have a
destinctive sound when the pump unloads. Replace the cap on the Unloading Valve
adjustment screw.
