Electrical fittings:
12V Female Cobo socket connector (in cab)
Oil flow:
An oil flow of 60 litres per min (13.3 gallons per min) is required to achieve maximum performance.
Oil flows in excess of 60 litres/min will result in overheating.
TRACTOR REQUIREMENTS
PLEASE READ THIS INSTALLATION GUIDE
THOROUGHLY BEFORE COMMENCING
FITTING THE MACHINE
TO THE TRACTOR
Attach the Tomahawk drawbar and
PTO shaft to the tractor. Connect the
supply and return hydraulic hoses,
ensuring the direction of flow is
correct.
The control desk is supplied with a
suction cup attachment. This should
be fitted in the cab in a suitable
position that is convenient to the
operator on a smooth, clean, dust
free surface. (i.e. the window.)
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
TO THE CONTROL SYSTEM
To tractor in-cab 12V supply
THE BLUETOOTH
CONNECTION
Once the Bluetooth light has stopped
flashing and is illuminated you are ready to
proceed. If it does not stop flashing then
it has failed to make a connection and the
control desk will not turn on.
PAIRING A CONTROL DESK TO A MACHINE
Should the control desk fail to connect to the machine, then
press the “ON” and “OFF” buttons & together for 2
seconds. This will make the control desk search for the Bluetooth
signal from the Tomahawk.
COMMISSIONING
With the bale chamber empty, engage the PTO at low revs, then
increase to normal working speed (540rpm) and start the oil
flow to the Tomahawk. Press the “power on” button when the
Bluetooth light is illuminated. Check chute rotation, deflector
and tailgate functions work.

Press the forward button to start the bed chain. If the
bed chain is set to ‘0’ the bed should be stationary. The bed
can be stopped by either pressing the forward or reverse
button . You can reverse the bed chain by holding the
reverse button down.
BED CHAIN SPEED
The bed chain speed can be adjusted by turning the dial
from ‘0’ to ‘10’. If the bed is rotating when the dial is set to ‘0’,
then you need to re-calibrate the bed speed. See over page

it has power.
