Manual Bundle Removal
There is a push button and toggle switch located on the right side of machine, between the
Bale Band-It and GFC decals. The switches intended purpose is to manually remove a
completed bundle from the main chamber. The push button labeled
PLUNGER manually
moves the horizontal plunger. This button is a momentary switch and must be held down in
order for plunger to complete full stroke of cylinders. The toggle switch labeled
BACK
FLOOR manually lowers the back floor.
The PLUNGER button will have no effect if the Horizontal Plunger solenoid is currently
activated (Horizontal Plunger cylinders will be stroked out when activated). The Horizontal
Plunger will remain activated until the first bale of every bundle has entered the machine. If
Horizontal Plunger is activated and removing of a bundle is desired, simply run one more bale
through the Bale Band-It.
The
BACK FLOOR toggle switch should never be activated if the Back Gates are closed!
The Back Gates close on the 5th tier (bale 15) of the bundle and reopen after the banding
process has been completed for that bundle. If Back Gates are closed and the removing of
bales is desired one of two things can be done: (1) run more bales through the machine to
complete the bundle or (2) simply press the Bundle Reset button.
To remove a completed bundle:
y Check that Back Gates are open and that Horizontal Plunger is not activated.
y Open the side doors of machine and insert one small square bale with the edge up into the
Horizontal Plunger chamber (the same direction as all the other bales).
y Close all side doors and properly fasten them.
y Hold down PLUNGER button until Horizontal Plunger is at end of its stroke and release.
y Insert another bale into chamber and repeat the above process until the entire bundle is
sitting on the Back Floor.
y Activate the BACK FLOOR toggle switch. The bundle should now be partially on the
ground. Pull the machine out from under the bundle.
y Deactivate the BACK FLOOR toggle switch and properly fasten all side doors.
Strapping Count
‘Out of Strapping’ displayed and buzzer on tractor box: This display will appear after
122 bundles have gone through the Bale Band-It. Two new rolls of strapping will band
together approximately 122 bundles. This is not an exact count due to the fact that each
bundle will vary in the amount of strapping that it will use. If the display shows
‘Out of
Strapping’ and the buzzer is on, the Reset Strapping button must be pressed in order for the
Bale Band-It to continue. Once this has been done the computer resets its strapping counter
to 122. If the buzzer is on and there is still enough strapping to do more bundles, press the
Reset Strapping button and continue baling. Be sure to keep a close watch on the amount of
strapping that you still have to prevent the possibility of running out. Be sure to press the
Reset Strapping button anytime two new rolls of strapping have been put onto the machine.
Reset Strapping Button
Press when the two new rolls of strapping have been replaced on the machine. This resets
the computer’s bundle count in order to turn on the tractor box buzzer at the appropriate time.
