Operation4 OperationSpecial Safety InstructionsIn addition to the general safety instructions, other specialsafety instructions apply for round baler operation.• The following general rules apply to all maintenance, assembly, repair and adjustmentwork: Bring the machine to a complete standstill.Switch off the engine.Remove the ignition key.Secure the tractor and round baler against rolling.• Maintain an adequate safety distance to all moving parts of the round baler duringoperation. This applies especially to the baling material pick-up equipment.Remove clogs only when the PTO has been switched off and the engine is at a standstill.• Never stand in the slewing range of the tailgate or underneath the tailgate when it isunlocked.During maintenance, assembly or repair work inside the bale chamber or to the tailgatealways secure it against falling using the shut-off tap.Switch off the motor, remove the ignition key and disconnect the 12 V supply voltage.• Should hazardous situations develop, switch off the PTO immediately and bring the roundbaler to a standstill.• Never let the round baler run if no operating personnel are on the tractor.• The round baler can only be operated at a PTO speed of 540 r.p.m.• When working on slopes, always deposit round bales in such a way that they do not move.Should the bales start to move, they could cause serious accidents due to their weight andcylindrical form.4.1 Adjustments Before Starting WorkBefore starting work, complete or check the following:• Stretch the bale chamber floor conveyor.Rotate the shut-off tap (1) of the control valve (2) fromposition “a” to position “b”. Lift tailgate.• Check the pick-up's working height.• Check the position of the baffle plate.• Use of the bale ejector.• Select baling pressure• Use of additional feed slats.• Selct twin or net wrapping.• Insert twine or net.• Check functioning of the chain lubrication device.• Reset bale counters.21baThe required procedures are described in Chapter 5(Basic Settings and Operation).VP-1-036IV - 1

OperationShort, crumbly straw:• reduce the number of cutter blades orswitchoff the cutting system or remove bladesThe blades can be stowed on the right hand sideof the machine.Small, flat windrows:• reduce PTO speedor• increase forward speedStraw varies greatly in structure. It is not alwayspossible to work at the highest possible pressure.Additional feed bars can be installed in this case (seesection 5.6).Adapt the round baler setting to prevailing conditions.4.2 Forward Speed and PTO SpeedThe forward speed during use depends on the followingfactors:– type of baling material– moisture content of the baling material– height of windrows– ground conditions• Match forward speed to prevailing conditions.• Do not overload the round baler.• Maintain a forward speed between 5 - 12 km/h• When baling a round bale, reduce speed at the startand finish of the baling process.4.3 Filling the Bale ChamberTo attain a consistent bale density inside a round bale,the bale chamber should be filled evenly. The swathwidth is an important factor here.The swath width is optimal if the swath has exactly thesame width as the bale chamber.If the swath is wider than this, distortion of the roundbales may result. The round bale will be frayed on thesides and difficult to eject from the bale chamber.If the swath is narrow, the bale chamber can be filledevenly only by driving onto the swath from alternate sides(left/right). Do not zigzag: drive long distances on the leftand right side of the swath as shown in the illustration.Too frequent changes and uneven filling of the balechamber will produce barrel-shaped round bales anduneven bale density.It can be seen at the density indicators when the presetbale diameter is reached. Besides an audible warning willsound and the indicator lights of the electric startingdevice will go out.KR-1-017IV - 2

OperationBarrel-shaped round bales can causedamage to the floor conveyor. Distortedand thick round bales are detrimental toproper silage production.4.4 Wrapping and Depositing Bales• Start tying / wrapping procedure (see Chapter 6) ,continue baling material pick-up until tying or wrappingmaterial is pushed into the bale chamber by the balingmaterial and picked up by the round bale, maintainthe nominal speed of 540 rpm when doing this,until the wrapping process is complete.• Stop the towing vehicle until the tying or wrappingprocedure has been completed.• Eject the round bale from the bale chamber.• Always close the bale chamber and start the nextbaling process.4.5 After BalingSlacken the bale chamber floor conveyor.After baling work has been completed, the front and rearfloor conveyors must be slackened.Rotate the shut-off tap (1) of the control valve (2) fromposition “b” to position “a”.The floor conveyor pressure cylinders are pressureless.a21bVP-1-036IV - 3

Winter Storage8 Winter StorageSpecial Safety Instructions• Maintenance, cleaning and repair work should be done only when the machine is at acomplete standstill. Switch off the motor, remove the ignition key and disconnect the12 V supply voltage.• Secure the tractor and round baler against rolling.• If the tailgate is open, secure it at the shut-off tap to prevent it from falling.• After completing maintenance work reattach all protective plates and protective devicesproperly.• Avoid skin contact with oil, grease, cleaning agents and solvents.• In case of injuries or burns caused by oils, cleaning agents or solvents, seek immediatemedical attention.• Follow all further safety instructions, to avoid accidents and injuries.8.1 General InformationClean the round baler thoroughly inside and outside before putting it in winter storage. If a high-pressure cleaner isused, do not aim the water jet directly at the bearing points. Grease all lubricating points after cleaning. Do notwipe away any grease which oozes out of the bearings. This grease ring provides additional protection againstmoisture.Remove the drive chains and wash them in petroleum (do not use any other solvent). At the same time, check forwear to the chains and chain wheels. Lubricate the chains after cleaning, attach and tighten.Check that all moving parts (such as deflection rollers, joints, tension rollers, etc.) move easily. If necessary,remove, clean and remount after regreasing. Replace if necessary. Use original KRONE spare parts only.Take apart the PTO shaft. Grease the inner tubes and protecting tubes. Apply grease to the lubrication nipple onthe universal joint and to the bearing rings on the protecting tubes.Park the round baler in a dry place away from artificial fertilisers or animal stalls.Touch up damaged paintwork, thoroughly coat unpainted parts with anti-corrosion agent.Use only a suitable vehicle jack to jack up the round baler. Make sure that the machine is in asecure position when jacked up.Jack up the round baler to prevent damage to the tyres (tyre damage may occur when the round baler is leftstanding in the same position for extended periods). Protect the tyres against outside influences such as oil,grease, direct sunshine, etc.Complete the required repair work immediately following the harvest season. Prepare a list of all required spareparts. This makes it easier for your KRONE dealer to process orders and you can be certain that your machinewill be available for use in top condition at the start of the next season.VIII - 1
