INSTALLATION OF TANK, MOUNTING BRACKETS, GAUGE, & DRAIN/FILL LINE CONT.
Mount the tank on the tank base bracket (001-442U) as shown below and on the previous page. The
position the tank and saddle so that the additional side hole on the tank will be facing the front of the
ba
ler. The tank saddle will have four holes that will line up with point A. Use four 1/2” x 1 – 1/4” hex
bolts, four flat washers, and four lock washers to secure the tank to points A.
The drain/fill line will connect to the tank at point B. Thread 3/4" elbow fitting (#003-EL3434) into end
of tank.
Run 3/4" hose from the elbow down the frame to the bottom of the baler. Drill 1/4" holes to
accept the valve holder bracket and use 5/16” x11/4” self-tapping screws. Connect valve assembly to
other end of hose. Place hose clamps on both ends.
The drain/fill line needs to be used for all
filling or draining of the tank. Fill or drain from ground level only. Failure to do so can lead to
injury.
Locate gauge assembly. On round balers the gauge can be mounted to front of tank saddle or in any
other location that is easily viewed from the tractors seat.
