2. Hydraulic System

2500 Bale Carrier

WARNING

Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient force to

penetrate the skin, causing serious personal injury. Before repairing, adjusting, or
disconnecting lines, be sure to relieve all pressure.

WARNING

Never operate the 2500 Bale Carrier with frayed or damaged

hoses or leaking fittings. A burst would cause the lift arm to drop suddenly and result in
serious injury or death and cause damage to the loader or tractor.

 Before applying pressure to the system, be sure all

connections are tight and the lines, pipes, and hoses are
not damaged.

 Wear proper hand and eye protection when searching for

leaks. Use a piece of wood or cardboard instead of hand
to check for leaks.

 Maintain all components in good working order.
 If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at once. Serious

infection or toxic reaction can develop if proper medical
treatment is not administered immediately.

 Regularly check the fluid level in the tractor reservoir and

follow the maintenance procedures in the tractor
Operator’s Manual.

 Regularly inspect cylinders, hoses and fittings for leaks,

crimps and abrasions or other signs of wear and tear or
impending failure.

 Ensure hoses do not bind or stretch during operation.

Always keep hoses tied or supported to prevent rubbing against sharp areas or
being pinched. We suggest using tie wraps to support hoses.

 Replacement hoses must have a working pressure of 3000 psi (20685 kpa) or

higher.

maintenance instructions.

5. Wheels / Tires

 Inspect hub bolts after first use and 50 hrs thereafter. Hub bolts must be torqued

to 125 ft-lb (170 Nm).

 Thread-locking compound such as Locktite 242 is recommended for the hub

bolts.

 Ensure that dust caps are firmly in place.
 Check tire pressure regularly: 90 psi (620 kpa).
 The wheel bearings should be inspected and re-packed annually with a SAE

multi purpose type grease. If hub is supplied with grease fitting, grease every
500hrs.

 Air valve should face away from the hub.

block. Otherwise, verify the 2500 Bale Carrier is properly coupled to the drawbar on a
tractor with a minimum of 25000 LB (11340 kg).

Start of Season

 Clean and inspect the bale carrier when taking it out of storage. Ensuring that the

bale carrier is in optimum condition at the start of the season reduces the
chances of a costly breakdown during the season.

 Clean and inspect chains and chain rollers for excessive wear or stiffness. Check

for proper adjustment and alignment.

 Lubricate entire bale carrier. Ensure that all grease fittings are in place and taking

grease properly.

 Operate the bale carrier for a short time. Check that all moving parts are

operating freely. Check for hydraulic leaks.

 Inspect and repack wheel bearings with a SAE multi purpose type grease.
 Replace and secure safety shields. Review safety regulations.
 Check all bolts for tightness. Replace lost or worn bolts.
 Check that tires are properly inflated.
 Review the Operator’s Manual.

During The Season

 At the end of each day of operation park the bale carrier in a clean, dry, sheltered

area.

 Lubricate areas requiring daily lubrication.
 Remove any build up of hay or straw.

End Of Season

 Replace worn or damaged parts and replace if necessary. To avoid costly delays

contact your dealer for replacement parts before the start of the next season.

 Store the bale carrier in a clean, dry, sheltered area.
 Replace all missing or broken bolts with bolts of similar size and grade.
 Clean the baler carrier thoroughly. Dirt draws moisture that rusts metal.
 Repaint chipped or worn areas. Paint is available from your dealer.
 Clean chains and brush with SAE light machine oil (or equivalent) to prevent rust.
 Repaint the top of the carrier beams with a graphite paint such as Slip PlateTM to

prevent rust.

Place all controls in neutral, stop engine, set parking brake

Ensure the 2500 Bale Carrier tires and hitch are securely

adjusting or repairing the 2500 Bale Carrier.

WARNING

to the RED power wire from the control handle. Ensure that there is a 15 amp fuse in
place to protect this circuit. Verify prior to installing Snubber. Incorrect wiring will result
in electrical failure.

NOTE:

The snubber minimizes coil voltage discharge during the de-energizing of the valve
solenoid coils. There are no serviceable parts within the unit. Ensure that all electrical
connections are clean and dry. Test the 2500 Bale Carrier and view to see if the
hydraulic system is operating correctly. If any wires are damaged or cut, the schematic
on the next page will assist in repair and maintenance. All wire is 18 gage.
