HARVEST TEC 488 Light Kit for John Deere Round Baler Surface Wrap
Compartment
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- STEP 1: Center the lights in the compartment as low as possible on the surface between the latch and the handles. Position lights so the wire harness runs to the right side of baler
- STEP 2: Spread the lights apart so they are 14 inches from each side of the edge of the surface wrap compartment. The lights should fit between the two spots where the compartment comes in contact with its stops on the bottom of the frame. These areas should be marked to assure that the lights don’t come in contact with the stops when closing the compartment.
- STEP 3: Mark the location of the 4 holes for each bracket, center punch and drill 1/8” pilot holes.
- STEP 4: Secure each light bracket with the self-tapping screws provided in the kit. Secure the wire, between the lights, to the door with the padded jiffy clips so they don’t get wrapped into the baler.
- STEP 5: Route the wire harness over to the right side of the compartment door, and then follow the rolled over edge on the side of the compartment towards the front of the baler.
- STEP 6: Secure the wire harness to the side of the compartment by drilling five 1/4” diameter holes just above the rolled over edge. Insert the cable tie buttons from the outside of the machine and fasten to the wire harness using the cable ties provided.
- STEP 7: Route the wire harness around the bottom of the connection between the shock and the pivot point and fasten with a cable tie. Make sure that, there are no interferences and the compartment closes properly.
- STEP 8: Drill a 9/16” diameter hole in the front, upper right corner of the compartment through the thinner sheet metal. Insert the grommet from the kit and run the wire harness through the grommet.
- STEP 9: Run the bale wrap wiring harness up along the wire harness for the baler. Use cable ties to fasten the bale wrap wiring harness to the baler wiring harness.
- STEP 10: Run the wire up to where the baler’s harness goes into the red taillight. Tap the black wire into a black wire from the plug and the green wire to the brown wire coming from the plug using the moisture resistant tap connections. See chart on the next page.
