Symptom
Fault
Possible Solutions
High power
Consumption.
Bale fed too quickly into crossbeater(s).
Reduce bed chain speed.
Rotor won't
start
Bale jammed hard against crossbeater(s). Reverse bed chain.
Material in rotor housing jamming Rotor
Reverse rotor to clear blockage.
Clutch setting too low
Check setting and adjust
Bed chain
does not turn
Hydraulic valve problem.
See section below.
Material jammed between bed chain and
bodywork.
Clear material and check bed chain tension.
Relief valve setting too low.
Adjust relief valve or replace if spring worn.
Tractor hydraulic oil pressure low.
Check pressure delivered by tractor.
Bed chain has come off the sprockets.
Check sprocket condition, replace the bed chain and
tension it.
Bed chain broken.
Check sprocket groove is clean and that the
chamber below the floor is free from obstructions.
Repair chain and refit.

this fails.
Bed drive chain has come off the
sprockets on 8080 models.
Check sprocket condition, replace the chain and
tension it.
Sprockets seized.
Replace bearings.
Bed Chain speed too slow.
Increase forward speed of bed chain using flow
control valve.
Blades blunt or worn.
Sharpen, reverse or replace blades.
Material jammed hard against bale
restraint above crossbeater(s).
Reverse bed chain direction for at least 5 seconds
until feed is restored.
Bed Chain speed too slow.
Insufficient oil flow from tractor. Check oil level on
tractor or adjust flow rate. Consult dealer if hydraulic
flow cannot be controlled using tractor valve. See
handbook for recommended speeds.
Rotor speed low.
Check that slip clutch is not slipping - indicated by
hot clutch assembly.
Rotor speed low.
Check tractor tachometer.
Bale stops
discharging
Crossbeater(s) not rotating.
Replace shear bolt in drive sprocket.
Gearbox in neutral.
