Microwave Moisture Installation
– Brackets/Sensors
Locate the mounting holes on the back of both the left and right
side of the bale chute (Figure 1 & 2).
Mount the rear microwave moisture mounting brackets 001-
2601 (figure 3
) on the holes using two 3/8” x 3 1/2" hex bolts,
nuts and lock washers located in parts bag.
NOTE
- Some baler
models may require bracket modification. Ensure no chains or
other moving parts may interfere with mounting of microwave
sensors. If baler is equipped with chute, carefully raise, and
lower it to make sure it does not interfere with microwave
sensors.
Attach the microwave moisture sensors to each mounting bracket. Sensor 006-4641MTX will be mounted on
the left side of the bale chute (figure 4). Sensor 006-4641MRX will be mounted on the right side (figure 5).
Mount the sensors with the wire connection port toward the baler.
Locate the MWM wiring harness (006-7640MWL) in the kit. Start by locating the connector with the white heat
shrink label marked RX. Connect this connector to the sensor mounted on the right-side chute (006-
4641MRX).
Route the MWM harness (006-7640MWL) to the front of the baler using zip ties. If baler is equipped with
Staheli West steam a 25’ extension harness is available from Harvest Tec (006-7640FMX).
