Introduction

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing a Harvest Tec Model 347U applicator. Please read this manual carefully to ensure correct steps are taken to attach the applicator to the baler. This applicator is designed to apply Harvest Tec buffered propionic acid. Use of alternative products may cause complications. Including inaccurate readings from the flow meter and damage to all parts. Resulting in the warranty being void. A parts break down for the applicator is located in the back of the manual.

Hay App version must be at least 2.7.1 (or higher) to operate with the iPad Integration Module (030-6672C)

Tools Needed

• Standard socket set
• Standard screw driver or 5/16” nut driver
• Side cutter
• Hose cutter
• Crescent wrench
• Hammer
• Metal drilling and cutting tools
• Center Punch

Installation of Applicator

Installation of Tank, Mounting Brackets, and Drain / Fill Line

Locate the tank base bracket (001-4442U). This bracket will mount on the front of the baler is show below. Depending on the year of the baler only two of the required three holes may be premade on the baler. Mark and drill two 1/2” (13mm) holes (one per side) if necessary. Be sure to check behind the area before drilling to ensure there is nothing that will be damaged. The bracket will be secured on each side with three 1/2” x 1 1/4” hex bolts, six flat washers, three lock washers, and three hex nuts. Secure the left side of the baler first. Slide the supplied shims (001-4442US), if necessary, between the tank base bracket and the baler side wall if necessary. The shims need to be installed to prevent the balers side wall from moving in once the tank base bracket hardware is tightened. Tighten all hardware.

Mount the tank on the tank base bracket (001-4442U) as shown below and on the previous page. The position the tank and saddle so that the additional side hole on the tank will be facing the front of the baler. The tank saddle will have four holes that will line up with point A. Use four 1/2” x 1 1/4” hex bolts, four flat washers, and four lock washers to secure the tank to points A. Locate parts bag 1 (PBA-1). The drain/fill line will connect to the tank at point C. Thread 3/4″ elbow fitting (003- EL3434) into end of tank. Run 3/4″ hose from the elbow down the frame to the bottom of the baler. Drill 1/4″ (7mm) holes to accept the valve holder bracket and use 5/16” x 1 1/4” self- tapping screws. Connect valve assembly to other end of hose. Place hose clamps on both ends. The drain/fill line needs to be used for all filling or draining of the tank. Fill or drain from ground level only.

Mounting Control Box

Locate the controls package. Position the control box (006-3671RB) as shown on right. If the mounting holes are not pre-drilled on the tank saddle (001-4442), drill four 1/4″ (7mm) holes. Using the supplied 10/32 x 3/4” Phillips flathead machine screws, nylock washers and nuts to mount the control box.

Placement of Nozzle Holders

Install Kit 347U

The cross bar on the wind guard above the pick-up head provides a mounting point for the nozzle holders (001-4714J). Mount the nozzle holders on the wind guard, using the supplied U bolts (001-4714UBS). Measuring from the center of the baler, the nozzle holders will need to be 6” (15cm) apart on a 4’ (1.2M). Position the nozzle holders so that the tips spray in a horizontal direction over the top of the baler’s pickup. The tips should be located so that they will be between 14” and 18” (35 – 45 cm) from the normal path of hay. Make sure the tubes do not interfere with the tying system. *It is recommended to test the system with water prior to field operation. This will ensure the fan pattern from the tips reaches the outside edges of the pickup while having a slight overlap in the center.

Installation of Plumbing

Intake

Locate parts bag 16. Use the 003-EL3412 on the bottom of the tank to route 1/2″ line (002-9001) to the 003-A1212 or 003-EL1212 fitting used on the ball valve attached to the pump plate. Attach hose clamps (003-9003) on both of the fittings.

Discharge

Route the 1/2″ hose from the pump output toward the front of the baler and connect to the solenoid assembly (SOL-3SP-A). Secure the solenoid assembly and hose along baler, positioning the solenoid as close to the spray tips as possible. Connect the 1/4″ hose to the outgoing side of the solenoid to tip assembly.

Low, Standard and High Output Tips
Your baler comes with two sets of tips: a low set and a high set.

• Low set will cover outputs of 60 – 300 lbs/hr (27-300 L/hr).
• Standard set will cover outputs of 48- 448 lbs/hr (21-203 L/hr).
• High (optional) set will cover outputs of 80-800 lbs/hr (36L-363L).

Installation of Moisture Sensor Pads

1. If your baler is equipped with bale shaping pads, remove disc and use existing hole (may need to be drilled larger, 3/4″ (19mm) to install new moisture sensing discs.
2. If your baler is not equipped with bale shaping pads you will need to drill a hole in the chamber directly behind and above the starting roll (Figure 1).
3. The mounting hole will be 3/4″ (19mm) in diameter. Use a plastic pad (006-4641F) and place it into the baler to use as a template. The bottom edge of the pad will be placed 1” (25mm) up from starting roll and 2” (51mm) from the back of the bale chamber (Figure 1).
4. Locate the 006-4641G (a) piece, this will need to be cut down to size. Use the already machined line in the bushing to cut off the small piece shown above 006-4641G (b). Part 006-4641I may also need to be trimmed to fit.
5. Depending on the baler the bolt may need to be trimmed for proper fit.
6. Tighten all of the hardware to 50 ft/lbs (68 N/m).
7. Make sure that the plastic pad is protecting all metal surfaces of the disc from touching baler.
8. Run the moisture wire harness (006-4640G2) from pump plate area to each disc securing with cable ties.

Installation of Bale Sensor

The bale rate timer sensor is used to determine when the baler door is open. With this information the system is able to change the tons/hour automatically (see Operating Instructions, Automatic Mode). Locate the sensor (006-7400) and the sensor bracket (001-4648RB). On the right side of the baler find a location 1”– 6” down from the hinge to mount the bracket. Check for clearance with hydraulic cylinders before mounting the bracket. The bracket should be mounted to the front side of the hinge point, with the sensor aligned over the back door. Mark and drill two 1/4” (7mm) holes and install the bracket using two 5/16” x1/4” self-tapping bolts. Install the sensor into the bracket and leave 1/4″ (7mm) of clearance between the end of the sensor and the door. The harness will need to be routed towards the DCP. Secure with cable ties and take care to avoid pinch points. The harness extension (006-7400EXT) may need to be used.

Installation of iPad Integration Control

Locate a safe location in the cab of the tractor to place the iPad Integration Control (030-6672C). Recommended location is securely fastened out of the operators way in a location that is close enough to reach with the iPad cord. Connect the Power / Communication harness (006-6650TM(E)) to the bottom of the receiver.

To operate the applicator, plug the iPad cord into the communication port indicated by

iPad Integration Control Light Signals

• Green Slow Blink:  Power supplied to the applicator system and the unit is going through its startup process. This will take approximately 25-35 seconds.
• Green Double Blink: Indicating the iPad module recognizes the iPad but the app is not open or connected.
• Green Solid Light:  Module is connected to the app and is ready to operate.
• Recommended to use the USB cable included with the applicator kit (006-6672USBC)

Bluetooth Receiver Lights

• Pre-2020 applcaitors equipped with Bluetooth receivers (030-6672B) are now equipped with lights to indicate both power and Hay App connection on the Apple iPad. Clean light regularly
• Blinking Lights: System is waiting for the processor to connect, which could take up to 35 seconds. Red Light – The Bluetooth receiver has  power.
• Green Light: The Bluetooth receiver is connected to the Hay App.

300 Series Applicators with serial number before THS07000 will require the THS to be sent to Harvest Tec for a required update in order to use the iPad Integration Module (030-6670C).

Hay App version must be at least 2.7.1 (or higher) to operate with the iPad Integration Module (030-6672C)
