CONTROL DESCRIPTION

1.ON-OFF (Keyed Selector Switch)

Turning this switch to the ON position activates the other controls in the control panel. The baler can not be operated unless the key is in the switch and the switch is in the ON position. The purpose of this switch is to allow only authorized and trained personnel to operate the baler. The key should be removed from the baler when not in use and should stay in the possession of only responsible and trained personnel.

2.EMERGENCY STOP (Red Mushroom Head Pushbutton) Depressing this button will stop the machine at any point in the cycle.

3.AUTOCYCLE (Green Pushbutton)

The AUTOCYCLE button can be used only when the feed gate and bale door are closed and the keyswitch is in the ON position. Once depressed, the AUTOCYCLE button will cause the platen to move to the fully down position and back to the fully raised position (one complete cycle).

4.MANUAL UP (Black Pushbutton)

This button will only start the baler with the keyswitch in the ON position. Depressing this button will raise the platen with the feed gate and bale door opened or closed. It is normally used during bale ejection. It can also be used to interrupt the automatic cycle and raise the platen should it become necessary. The MANUAL UP button is a “Hold To Run” control, causing the baler to stop when it is released. WARNING: STAY CLEAR OF MOVING PARTS WHEN USING THE MANUAL UP BUTTON WITH THE FEED GATE OPEN.

5.MANUAL DOWN (Black Pushbutton)

This button will only start the baler with the keyswitch in the ON position. Depressing this button will lower the platen only if the feed gate and bale door are closed. It can be used to interrupt the automatic cycle and lower the platen should it become necessary. The MANUAL DOWN button is a “Hold To Run” control, causing the baler to stop when it is released.

6.RED WARNING LIGHT

This light will warn the operator of a magnetic interlock switch malfunction. If the light is on, and the feed gate is in the up position, there is a problem. Discontinue use of the baler.
