INTRODUCTION

The Harvest Tec model 500C1 is designed to read moisture on your baler monitor. The system will work with all monitors in CNH balers 2006 and newer (serial 4480 and above).

INSTALLATION OF SYSTEM

  1. INSTALLATION PRECISION INFORMATION PROCESSOR
    Follow the instructions below to mount the Precision Information Processor (PIP) onto your specific baler model and type. The locations shown are the right twine box (looking at the back of the baler). Mark and drill the four 3/8 holes and install PIP with four 5/16 x 1 bolts, locks, flats and nuts.

2. INSTALLATION STARWHEELS

The star wheels are to be mounted on top of the baler, just behind the knotters and under the walkway on both sides. Remove the bale from the chute, tip the walkway up and locate the wheels on the top outside corner angles of the bale chute, one on each side. Some balers may already have the notch cut and square holes. If so, the holes will need to be drilled round with a 5/16” drill bit. A 1/2″ x 1/2” cut may also need to be made at the base of the twine arm mounting bracket for the star wheel to sit correctly on the bale chamber. insert the four (per side) 5/16” x 3” black allen head bolts up through the chute and use nuts to hold the bolts in place. Place the star wheel block over the nuts and install the twine guards using the two inner holes of the star wheel block. See Step 3 for directions on how to hook-up the star wheel wires.

3. INSTALLATION OF STAR WHEEL WIRING HARNESS

First, remove the cover from the star wheel block and use a ¼” nut driver to remove the nut from the electronic swivel. Next, run the star wheel sensor wire (006-4640E2) through the black grommet and place the eye terminal on the star wheel sensor. Tighten the eye loop with the nut on the sensor and put the star wheel cover back on the base. Next, tighten the grommet to form a tight seal around the wire.
Once the star wheel connection is complete, run the harness along the baler frame to the Precision Information Processor (PIP). (See wiring installation on the following page.) The Precision Information Processor is located on the back of the right twine box.

4. WIRING INSTALLATION

  1. Connect the power and can comm. harness to PIP (006-5650I) at the display & power ports.
  2. Connect harness (006-5650I) to connection on right side of baler. (Figure 2)
  3. Connect star wheel harness 006-4640E2 at moisture & bale rate sensor port.
  4. Install the two terminating resistors (006-5650Z & 006-4640J).
