Adjustment Procedure:

1.

Move the packer blade to the half pack position, switch OFF the hydraulic pump, shut the engine 
off and remove the key (see 

Lockout/Tagout Procedure

 on page 37).

2.

Remove the cover protecting the packer blade ahead and half pack proximity switches and check 
that the actuator bolt is 3 3/4 in. (9.52 cm) from the front end of the slot and perpendicular to 
the front header.

N

OTE

:

Full Eject

: The actuator bolt is attached to a clamp that should be 1/16 in. (1.58 mm) below the 

top of the shaft-end cylinder collar.

Tip-to-Dump

: The actuator bolt is threaded into a plate that is welded to the cylinder tube.

The actuator bolt is cemented in place with Locktite 242 or 272.

3.

Check the gap between the proximity switch and the tab.

If the gap is too wide or too narrow, proceed with the adjustment:

3 a.

Loosen the proximity switch mounting nuts. Slide the switch forward or backward in the 
mount to achieve a gap of approximately 1/4” with the tab.

3 b.

Tighten the proximity switch nuts.

3 c.

Test the operation.

4.

Start the Front Loader, switch ON the hydraulic pump and test the packer blade operation.

5.

Repeat steps until the half pack proximity switch is correctly adjusted.

6.

Reinstall the cover protecting the packer blade ahead and half pack proximity switches.

Adjusting Side Access Door Proximity Switch

The side access door proximity switch affects the power to all packer system electric controls. It also 
cuts power to all hydraulic functions when the door is not fully closed.

Location:

The side access door proximity switch is mounted on the side access door frame.
