Service Machine Safely

If machine is connected to a tractor, engage tractor parking brake and/or place transmission in "Park", shut off engine, and remove key.

If machine is detached from tractor, block wheels to prevent movement.

Before servicing or adjusting baler:

Disengage all power.

Shut off tractor engine.

Wait until all moving parts have stopped.

Let all components cool.

CAUTION: TS698-UN: Safety Art

While working inside or around baler with an open gate, gate lock lever and channel must be moved to locked position. Use this safety feature anytime gate is open.

Close gate anytime baler must be left unattended. If gate is not locked while performing this procedure, gate could close suddenly causing injury or death. If gate cannot be fully raised to engage gate lock channel (A) during service, use hoist or appropriate lifting device to support gate.

Channel (A) locks the left-hand gate lift cylinder to prevent the gate from falling if the hydraulic lift system fails.

To lock gate in open position:

Raise gate fully.

Move lever (B) to locked position (D). Inside surface (E) of channel (A) must contact top of cylinder rod.

If channel (A) does not contact top of cylinder rod (as shown), adjust gate lock channel (A) side-to-side to engage cylinder rod or loosen cap screw (G).

Lower gate cylinder slowly, approximately 20 mm (0.75 in.). Ensure gate lock channel (A) is against top of cylinder rod and end of cylinder barrel. If inside of channel (F) of gate lock channel (A) is not against top of cylinder rod and end of cylinder.

Safety Improperly disposing of waste can threaten the environment and ecology. Potentially harmful waste used with John Deere equipment include such items as oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid, filters, and batteries.

Dispose of Waste Properly

Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use food or beverage containers that may mislead someone into drinking from them.

Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water source.

Air conditioning refrigerants escaping into the air can damage the Earth’s atmosphere. Government regulations may require a certified air conditioning service center to recover and recycle used air conditioning refrigerants.

Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste from your local environmental or recycling center.

Power from tractor is transmitted to gear case (B) through PTO driveline (A).

Machines with Regular Pickup

The PTO driveline is a splined type shaft utilizing a sliding lockback collar disconnect. A hub with a shear bolt is used for drivetrain protection.

From the gear case, power is transmitted to drive roll chains (C) on the left-hand side of baler. The drive roll chains drive the starter roll (D), lower drive roll (E), and upper drive roll (F).

Pickup power is transmitted from the left-to-right-hand side of the baler through lower drive roll (E). Rotor drive V-belt (G) and chain (H) drive the pickup.

From the gear case, power is transmitted to drive roll chains (C) on the left-hand side of baler. The drive roll chains drive the starter roll (D), lower drive roll (E), and upper drive roll (F).

Pickup power is transmitted from the left-to-right-hand side of the baler through lower drive roll (E). Drive chain (G) drives the rotor.

Power isthen transmitted backto the right-hand side through the rotorshaft.Therotordrivesthepickupdrivechain(H)androtates the pickup reel.
