STARTING IN THE FIELD

STARTING

Turn on the control system (the button at the side of the control box) and turn on the
oil flow to the machine. Fold up the chute and turn it to the required position.
Now move the machine into working position.

Reset and check the metal detector:

Lights on the control box:

Fig. 6-3

The green light indicates that the control system is on.

Fig. 6-4

The green, left-hand, light

indicates that the machine is working with normal feed

intake and that the metal detector is activated.

The red, right-hand, light

indicates that the machine is in "metal stop", i.e. the

electronics has registered metal and the system has reacted (the pawl blocks the
ratchet wheel and the reverse system moves to neutral position).
