OPERATING MANUAL - Z587 BALER
The Z587 baler consists of the following units:
1. Tow bar
2. PTO drive shaft
3. Pickup
4. Collector
5. Safety railing with platform
6. Support foot
7. Traction wheel
8. Guard
9. Chain and bar conveyor assembly
10. Control panel
11. Net wrapper
12. Cord wrapper
13. Hydraulic supply lines
In the front part of the baler a pickup (3) is located to collect the swath
laid in banks. The collector (4) feeds the material into the cylindrical
baling chamber. Special rollers driven by a pair of chains move around
the circumference of the chamber. The motion of the rollers rolls and
compacts the material. When the desired compression level is obtained
it is indicated by the control panel (10) in the tractor cab. When the
programmed compression level is achieved, the wrapper (11, 12) wraps
the bale with cord or net.
The baler is coupled to the tractor using the tow bar (1), the PTO drive
shaft (2) and the hydraulic line (13). The support foot (6) supports the
machine at rest. It must be raised with the integrated crank and remain
up during field work. The baler is equipped with traction wheels (7) for
towing the machine behind the tractor.
