Model 450T (Three-Tie only)
Locate parts bag B. The pair of star wheels will need to mount on the top as close to the knotters as possible
and at least 10 mm away from any metal. They will need to maintain a safe distance away from the twine.
The star wheels will require two holes to be drilled per block, when drilling, make sure to keep the wheel
square to the bale chamber. Any angle will cause stress on the wheel and will eventually cause the wheel to
work itself out of the block. A template can be found in the back of the manual to help with the placement of
the star wheel.
Use the supplied 5/16” allen head carriage bolts and place the carriage head inside of the bale chamber
followed by lock and nut. Next attach the star wheels to the bolts followed by the twine diverters 001-4644 and
001-4645. Finally secure the entire block using nuts, locks, and flat washers. The twine diverter with the bale
rate sensors needs to be mounted on the right side of the baler.
Remove the four screws holding the plastic cover and attach one wire eye loop per star wheel through the
grommet and tighten down with the nut attached to the swivel. Reinstall the cover and run the wires up to the
pump plate. You will need to use zip ties to attach the wires so as to not interfere with normal baler use.
