Installation of Bale Rate Harness
– 600BBHD
On the moisture harness 006-7303HX (connected to star wheel) locate the wire that says
“FRONT” which
indicates it should be connected to the front sensor. Connect the wire that says
“BACK” to the other sensor.
The tip of the sensor should be placed no more than 1/4
” (7mm) away from the star wheel teeth and no less
than 1/8” (3mm) from the star wheel teeth. Each sensor will have an LED light located on the sensor by the
diverter. Once the unit is powered up spin the wheel and make sure that both led lights turn on and off. If they
don’t turn on and off, adjustments may need to be made.
Once the connection is complete, run the harness along the left side baler frame to the Dual Channel
Processor (DCP). The Dual Channel Processor is located next to the flywheel brake.
Installation of End of Bale Sensor
– 600BB
The end of bale sensor determines the position of the needles on the baler. When the needles cycle the
sensor communicates this information to the Dual Channel Processor. This information is used for job records
and will be used by the optional Bale Identification system.
Mount the end of bale sensor bracket (001-4648) as shown (above) on the ladder side of the baler (and same
side as the main controller).
Mark and drill two 3/8” (10mm) holes and attach the bracket using two 5/16” x 1”
self-
tapping screws, and 5/16” flange nuts. Keep the sensor 1/4" (7mm) from the needle and tighten both nuts.
New BB Balers have been installing the End of Bale Sensor in the second position and trimming off the excess
steel. Run the sensor cable (006-7400) and extension (006-7400BBEXT) up to the Dual Channel Processor
(DCP) down the ladder side of the baler and secure it properly out of the way of any moving parts and
hydraulics.
Installation of End of Bale Sensor
– 600BBHD
There is not an end of baler sensor included with the 600BBHD system. The moisture unit will use the baler
End of Bale sensor installed on the baler by retrieving the signal through the ISOBUS connection. Refer to the
operation manual for setup details.
