Round Baler ACTION 120
USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL - 25 -
-
Make sure the P.T.O. shaft is suitable to
transmit the power required by the round
baler (see technical data on the instructions
manual for the P.T.O. shaft). In case of doubt,
contact
the
Service
Center
of
the
manufacturer;
-
Before starting to work, verify that all
protections are in a perfect status and that
there are the suitable security chains. Fix
these chains one to the machine and the
other to the tractor, to avoid that the
protections rotate with the P.T.O. shaft;
-
It is compulsory to keep efficient the P.T.O.
shaft and the machine protections, do not use
P.T.O. shafts with ruined protections or worse
missing.
5.3.1 Torque limiter with shear bolt
The P.T.O. shaft has to have a torque limiter
which operates by interrupting the power
transmission when a torque peak occurs, over the
set value.
To reset the transmission, it is necessary to
replace the sheared screw with one of the same
diameter, class and length. Lubricate the grease
nipple at least once per season and after each
period of inactivity.
DANGER
If it’s necessary to replace the torque limiter,
replace it with one of the same or equal
dimensions and calibration. Do not use
different limiters and do not tamper with the
limiter to avoid big damages to the machine
or/and to the operator.
Shear bolt for ACTION 120:
-
Standard cardan shaft: Partially threaded
screw M6 X 40, class 10.9, ISO 4014
-
Homokinetic cardan shaft: Partially threaded
screw M6 X 40, class 8.8, ISO 4014
CAUTION
Before inserting the P.T.O., make sure that the
rotation speed corresponds to the one
required by the machine (540 R/ min).
5.4 ADJUSTMENT CARRIAGEWAY
For working on mountain, hill and in presence of
high slopes, for obtaining a wider carriageway,
unscrew the screws of U-bolt (2, Pic. 5), and
screw (1, Pic. 5), remove the hub in the position
need and tighten the screws..
DANGER
Pay more attention in this operation control
that the hub of axle is well blocked.
In the event that changing the track, or replacing
the tires installed, the total width of the machine is
changed it is obligatory to reposition the front
reflectors, increasing the width of the appropriate
brackets.
The front reflectors bracket allows positioning in
two
configurations.
Find
the
appropriate
configuration is in the table below.
MACHINE WIDTH
POSITION / REFLECTORS
WIDTH
from 2150 till 2440
Pos. 1 / L = 2080
from 2440 till 2550
Pos. 2 / L = 2270
To reposition the reflectors, remove the screws
that hold their bracket and fix it in the outer or
inner holes.
5.5 HYDRAULIC CONNECTION
Pic. 11
– Connections
The "ACTION 120" round baler can be connected
to tractors equipped with a hydraulic system with
two
single-acting
couplings.
The
hydraulic
opening system of the tailgate is equipped with a
fixed choke valve to prevent the tailgate from
lowering quickly.
The colors of the rubber cap in correspondence
with the quick couplings indicate the connected
user in particular:
-
Yellow cap: Pick-up
-
Red cap: rear tailgate
The hydraulic utilities are also identified by the
following sticker placed in front of the machine
