WARNING:

BEFORE START-UP, REPLACE THE 3/4” PLUG ON THE TOP OF THE

POWER  UNIT R E S E RVOIR  WITH  THE  FILLER  BREATHER  CAP.  THIS  CAP I S
SHIPPED INSIDE OF THE PANEL BOX.

D A N G E R :

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.

C A U T I O N :

MAKE  SURE  PERSONS AND  MAT E R I A L ARE  CLEAR  OF  CHARGE

BOX AREA.

1.

After the electrical connections are complete, check motor rotation by the 
following: 

MOTOR ROTATION APPLIES TO THREE PHASE UNITS ONLY.

a.  Close bale chamber door and feed gate.
b.  Turn disconnect switch to the ON position.
c.  Have someone turn ON the keyswitch and depress the AUTO-

CYCLE button for one second and then immediately depress the 
EMERGENCY STOP button. Check motor rotation by watching the 
hub coupling through the slot in the pump-to-motor adapter. There 
is a rotation decal on the power unit showing correct rotation. In the 
event that this decal is missing, look at the hub coupling from the 
motor end. Rotation should be clockwise.

CAUTION: If the pump rotates backward, STOP IMMEDIATELY!

The pump will be damaged if it is operated in reverse even for 
short periods. Reversing any two incoming power lines will change 
the motor/pump rotation.

2.

With the platen fully raised, check to be sure the oil reservoir is filled to the 3/4 
level on the sight gauge (Refer to page 2-14 for hydraulic oil  recommendations).
The hydraulic system pressure has been factory set.

3.

The baler is equipped with an electrical interlock which prevents the use of 
the AUTOCYCLE and MANUAL DOWN functions when the feed gate is in the up
position. If either of these buttons start the baler when the feed gate is up, 
discontinue use of the baler until repairs have been made.

4.

MAKE SURE THAT THE OPERATORS ARE TRAINED IN THE 
PROPER USE OF THIS EQUIPMENT.

WARNING:

PARTS OF THE FEED GATE WILL EXTEND ABOVE THE TOP OF THE

BALER WHEN THE FEED GATE IS FULLY RAISED.
