Wireless Film Sensor Transmitter Installation
Ensure all parts have been received. Refer to Parts Manual .
1. Ensure two (2) 1.5V AAA alkaline batteries are inserted into each transmitter (A) . See Fig.1 .
NOTE: When replacing batteries, DO NOT use
rechargeable batteries. These can interfere
with transmitter broadcasting.
2. Push magnet bushing
(C) over closest roller
bearing collar (D) , backing off slightly to
avoid wearing on wrap carrier. Ensure the
magnet bushing is installed with set screws
towards inside edge for full contact with
roller bearing collar when tightened.
3. Drill holes through plastic wrap carrier
frame so that when transmitter is mounted,
it is 1/16” from tip of rare earth magnet.
See Fig.2 .
4. Install transmitters on each plastic wrap
carrier frame with provided machine screws
and lock nuts
(B)
. Transmitter end marked
“MAGNET” positioned towards wrap carrier
rollers. See decal image to left.

Wireless Film Sensor Operation
• Film sensor transmitter reads magnet bushing rotation as normal film dispensing.
• When a plastic roll empties or film breaks, magnet bushing stops rotating as no film is passing
over its parent roller. The transmitter no longer senses magnet bushing rotation, signals the
control panel reciever board which in turn signals the hoop controlling solenoid to cut off hydraulic
flow to the hoop. This causes the wrap cycle to stop, ensuring no bales are pushed through the
wrap chamber without plastic film coverage.
