• According to § 41 of the German Regulations Authorising the Use of Vehicles for

Road Traffic, the empty weight of the towing vehicle (tractor) must be at least as
much as the empty weight of the round baler .
• Road journeys are only permitted with an empty bale chamber.
• When operating the baler in fields, the total weight must not exceed 2980 kg and
the supported load (on the tractor hitch) 450 kg.

1.3 Working Methods and Operating Principles of the machine
The round baler compresses crops such as hay, straw, grass silage etc. into round bales. On completion of the baling
procedure the bale is wrapped with twine, net or synthetic foil, depending on the type of wrapping material selected.
Due to their form, the round bales have good storage properties, can be transported simply and can be processed
further with ease.
The working method can be described as follows:
The crop is collected into a swath and taken in by the pick up, transported to the centre by the augers (only for wide
pick ups) and enters the bale chamber via the transport roller. In the bale chamber the crop is turned by the rotating
roller panel and rolled up. A roller-shaped round bale forms as the crop continues to enter. The bale becomes
increasingly compressed as more crop is fed into the round baler. Volume and baling pressure gauges are located on
the left and right in the front side of the baler for the corresponding side of the bale. A soon as the set baling pressure
on the baling pressure preselection gauge is reached, the wrapping process is started. Depending on the type of
equipment, the wrapping process can be started hydraulically or mechanically by hand using an actuating cord. On
completion of the wrapping process, the final round bale is transported through the open tail gate out of the round
baler and set down. The idle time during use can be reduced when closing the tail gate, due to the special design of
the bale ejector as a straw trap. This increases the efficiency of the round baler.

2. Preparing the Round Baler
2.1 Special Notes on Safety
• Always switch off the PTO shaft when undertaking maintenance, care and repair work.
• Switch off the engine and remove the ignition key.
• Only use PTO shafts specified by the manufacturer which have an appropriate overload
coupling.
• Only attach and detach the PTO shaft when the drive shaft is switched off, the engine is
switched off and the ignition key has been removed!
• Lay hydraulic hoses, electric cables and synthetic cords such that they are not under
tension and do not come into contact with the tractor wheels when driving round
corners.
• Take particular care on and around the tractor and the round baler when attaching
and detaching the round baler!
The maximum drive speed for the round baler is 540 rpm.
Switch off the PTO shaft as soon as the round baler jams.
2.2 Adapting the Swinging Drawbar to the Tractor
The swinging drawbar on the round baler is designed for the various methods of attaching (above in three-point
linkage; below e.g. swinging drawbar). It must be mounted and adjusted in accordance with the different attachment
options for the tractor.
• Before starting work park the round baler on firm ground. Secure from rolling away.
• Particular care is required when attaching the round baler to the tractor. Make sure that
there is nobody in the danger area round the tractor and round baler.
• After attaching successfully, switch off the engine and remove the ignition key.
• Secure the tractor and the round baler from rolling away.
When mounting anything on the swinging drawbar always observe the following:

empty and closed.
• The maximum permissable speed is
25 km/h.
• Carrying passengers on the round
baler is forbidden.
• The road safety of the round baler
must be checked before driving on
public highways, in particular the
lighting, tyres, protective plates
must be locked, the pick up must be
raised and secured.
• Before starting, make sure you can
see in and around the tractor
perfectly and can see the round
baler clearly.
Before commencing journeys on public highways the

roadworthiness of the tractor and the round baler must
be checked and corrected if necessary.
Minimum Empty Weight

The round baler has no brakes. According to the
specifications of the German Regulations Authorising
the Use of Vehicles for Road Traffic, the tractor requires
a minimum empty weight to travel on public highways
with the round baler. Data is listed in the section

ground only. When parking on
loose ground, increase the size of
the pads on the jack stand.
• Secure the round baler from rolling
away using wheel chocks before
uncoupling the round baler.
• Care is required when lowering the
jack stand - risk of crushing.
• Release the pressure in the
hydraulics system before removing
hydraulic hoses. This is particularly
important for machines which are
driven with comfort controls (see
chapter for special equipment:
"Comfort Controls").
• Remove the PTO shaft only when

3. Working with the Round Baler
Besides the general notes on safety, a number of additional safety notes also apply for working with the round
baler.
• The following always applies for all maintenance, mounting, repair and adjustment work:
Bring the machine to a standstill. Switch off the engine. Remove the ignition key. Secure the
tractor and the round baler from rolling away.
• Keep a sufficiently safe distance from all moving parts in the round baler while it is in
operation. This applies to the crop collecting devices in particular. Clear blockages here
only when the PTO shaft and engine are switched off.
• Never stand in the swivel space of the tail gate or under the tail gate when it is not secured.
Always secure the tail gate from lowering with the shut-off tap when carrying out
maintenance, mounting or repair work on the bale chamber or the tail gate. Switch off the
engine and remove the ignition key.
• Switch off the PTO shaft immediately in dangerous situations and bring the round baler to a
standstill.
• Never run the round baler without an operator in the tractor.
• The round baler may only be operated with a PTO shaft speed of 540 rpm.
• Risk of injury from the cutting blades in the double twine binding device!
• On slopes always place bales in such a way that they cannot be accidentally be set in
motion. Once set in motion they can cause severe injury due to their weight and shape.
3.2 Basic Settings for the Round Baler for Different Crops
Judgement of the working conditions is an essential factor for the basic settings on the round baler, e.g. bale
density, height setting of the pick up, baffle plate setting etc. The following criteria should be observed when
choosing the basic settings.
Crop ==> e.g. hay, straw, grass silage
Crop length ==> long, medium or short crops
Swath width and height ==> broad, narrow or high swaths
Crop Length of Crop Swath Size What Setting?

3.3 Baling Process
Drive up to the beginning of a swath with the round baler

and observe the points in the following sections. Settings
not described in these sections can be found in the
"Settings" chapter in these operating instructions.
3.4 Checking the Tail Gate Lock
The tail gate is correctly locked when the baling pressure

gauge (1) on the right hand side of the machine indicates
a position below "O" when the bale chamber is empty.

3.6 Forward Speed and PTO Shaft
Speed
The working speed is dependent on the following
factors:
Type of crop
Moisture content of the crop
Swath height
Swath width
Ground conditions
Adapt your forward driving speed to the conditions.

Avoid overloading the round baler. Take a speed of
5 - 12 km/h as a guide. Reduce the speed at the start
and at the end of each baling process cycle.

3.7 Filling the Bale Chamber
The bale chamber must be filled uniformly in order to

obtain a uniform bale density inside the round bale. The
swath width is of great importance here. The optimum
width is when the swath is exactly as wide as the bale
chamber. Exact forming of round bales can not be
guaranteed when the swath is wider. The bale is frayed
at the sides and is hard to transport out of the bale
chamber. With narrow swaths, uniform filling of the bale
chamber can only be achieved by collecting from the left
and right sides of the swath alternately. However, do not
do this by driving in zig-zags. Drive long stretches up the
~~ 20 m
left and the right sides of the swath, as shown in the
adjacent diagram. Changing too frequently and non-
uniform filling lead to barrel-shaped bales and non-
uniform bale density. The baling pressure achieved KR-0-017
(volume filled) can be read off the baling pressure
gauges for the left and right hand sides of the machine
separately.
Barrel-shaped bales can damage the roller panel. Non-uniformly formed and compressed round
bales jeopardise proper silage collection.

3.10 Baling Other Products
The round baler is constructed

exclusively for standard use in
agricultural work (proper use). If other
products are also collected and baled
with the round baler in deviation from the
proper use, particular care and attention
is required.
If crops other than agricultural ones are baled, these

must also be laid out in swathes and collected
automatically by the pick up by driving over the swath.
Before you process crops other than those defined as
being for proper use, please consult your local KRONE
dealer.

ground at the pre-selected pick up working height. To
do this undo screws (2) and (3) and adjust the height of 4
the feeler wheel in the slot (4). Tighten up the screws
again. For very flat crops lying on the ground it may be
necessary to have the pick up running on the feeler
wheels only, so it adapts to the ground contours better, 3
without hanging it from low limit chains.

With particularly short and dry crops it
may be that the pick up does not collect 1
the crop optimally even when in a lower KR-0-038
working position. The round baler should
then be tilted forward by shifting the
swinging drawbar (see chapter
"Preparing the Round Baler").

9.2. General
Clean the the round baler thoroughly internally and externally before putting it away for the winter. If using a high-
pressure cleaner, do not point the water jet directly at the bearings. Lubricate the lubricating nipple after cleaning. Do
NOT wipe away grease emerging from the bearings. The grease ring provides additional protection against moisture.
Remove the drive chains and wash in petroleum (do not use any other solvent). Check the degree of wear on the
chains and chain wheels at the same time. Oil the clean chains, remount and tighten them up again.
Check all moving parts move easily, such as deflection rollers, joints, tension rollers, etc. Where necessary
dismount, clean, grease and remount. Replace with new parts if required. Only use original KRONE spare parts.
Pull the PTO shaft apart. Lubricate the inner tubes and guard tubes with grease. Lubricate the lubricating nipples on
the universal joint and on the bearing rings on the guard tubes.
Park the round baler in a dry place well away from artificial fertilisers and stables.
Touch up the paintwork, protect bare spots thoroughly with rust-proofer.
Jack up the round baler only with a suitable vehicle jack. Make sure that when jacked up, the
round baler is in a stable position.
Jack up the round baler to prevent damage to the tyres (damage to the tyres can occur when the round baler
stands in the same position for a long time). Protect the tyres from the effects of oil, direct sunshine etc.
Have the necessary repair work carried out in the time directly after the harvest season. Prepare a list of all spare
parts required. By doing this it is easier for your KRONE dealer to process your orders and you can be sure that
your machine will be in top condition for the start of the next season.

12.1 Electronic Final Pressure Gauge
• The final pressure gauge may only be mounted on the tractor when the engine is switched
off and the ignition key has been removed.
• When mounting the electronic final pressure gauge, make sure that the connection cable is
not under tension and does not come into contact with the tractor wheels when driving
round corners.
• Disconnect the power supply cable when welding on the tractor and round baler. Too high a
voltage can cause damage to the electronic final pressure gauge.
Attach the electronic final pressure gauge to the tractor

in the driver's field of view using a magnet and connect
to the round baler with a cable (3) to the socket (1) in the
electronic final pressure gauge. Secure the plug with a
bar. Attach the connection cable to the round baler with 1

12.3 Net and Foil Wrapping
Mechanism
12.3.1 Special Notes on Safety
• Before inserting the wrapping material (net or foil) in the round baler, switch off the PTO
shaft and allow the machine to come to a standstill.
• Switch off the engine. Remove the ignition key.
• Make sure, particularly for round balers with confort controls, that no undesired wrapping
cycles are started (see special equipment chapter "Electronic Comfort Controls").
• Always observe the special notes on safety listed in each chapter.
12.3.2 Wrapping Material (Net)

The specifications in the chapter 1.2 "Technical Data"
must be met for the selection of the wrapping material
(net).
A high-quality wrapping material

guarantees problem-free execution of the
wrapping process and safe handling
during transport or further use of the
round bale. We recommend using the
wrapping material supplied by ourselves.
12.3.3 Inserting the Net (Foil) in the Wrapping Mechanism
Attention!- Contamination of tying twine as well as the tying mechanism by oil and grease
Effect: Damages to the machine and problems with unrolling of the tying twine
• Twine, twine tensioner and eyes must not be contaminated with oil or grease.
• Those parts of the tying device the tying twine or net will rum through, must not be
contaminated with oil or grease.
Always raise the blade carrier to the upper position before inserting the net in the wrapping
mechanism and secure by inserting the locking pawl (right hand side of the machine behind the
drive wheel in the net wrapping mechanism). Great risk of injury!
To receive the roll of net there is a receiver mechanism

for the roll of net (3) located beneath the twine box.

clockwise. Make sure that the springs with the serrated
tips on the brake drum grip into the cardboard roll. The
distance from the roll of net to the left and right hand
sides of the machine must be equal. Using a mounting
lever the roll of net can be shifted laterally while still
inserted.

12.3.4 Wrapping Process for the Net Wrapping Mechanism
Besides being equipped with a net wrapping mechanism, round balers can be equipped with a
twine binding mechanism at the same time. Make sure that only one wrapping mechanism can be
started at a time. For this reason only the synthetic cord or the steel cord may be hooked up to the
actuating lever.
For the operation of the net wrapping mechanism, hook

the steel cord (2) to the lever (3) which is controlled by
the starter mechanism's hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic
starter mechanism is thereby connected to the lever (1)
2
on the right hand side of the machine. The lever causes 1 3
among other things the raising of the cutter blade at the
start of the wrapping process.
KR-0-027
76
When the start process is triggered, the lever (1) is
pulled into position (2). The spring bar moves to position
1 2 (4), a few centimeters above the thread (7). At the same
time the brake on the roll of net is freed (on the right
under the twine supply container), so that the net can be
drawn in more easily at the start of the wrapping
3 4 5 process. The actuating wheel (5) is moved in the
direction of the arrow by the lever (1) and pressed
against the friction wheel (3). The wrapping mechanism
is thereby put into operation, the net is laid on the crop
and drawn into the bale chamber. As soon as the start
process is completed the actuating wheel returns to its
7 initial position. The brake on the roll of net works again.
The spring bar moves downwards and is laid on the
6 KR-0-028 thread (7).
The actuating wheel (2) can be moved easily after

completion of the start process. The friction wheel (1)
continues to rotate. The spring bar is lying on the thread
1 3 2 (4) and is pushed outwards by the rotation of the friction
a wheel. It falls into position (5) from the end of the thread
(see direction of the arrow). The cutter blade is thereby
triggered. It falls down and splits the net.

• Secure the tractor and the round baler from rolling away unintentionally.
The adjusting screw used to set the number of windings round the bale has a left hand thread!
The number of windings round the bale is set at the

thread (4) on the friction wheel (1) shaft on the right hand
side of the machine. To make the adjustment, the spring 1 2
bar (3) must be in the lower position. Insert hexagonal
socket spanner in the adjusting screw (4) and undo the a
self-locking nut (2) (caution: left hand thread). The
adjusting screw can be screwed in or out with the hexa-
gonal socket spanner to make the adjustment. The

12.3.6 Adjusting the Net Brake

If the wrapping material is not cut cleanly, the setting of
the brake must be checked and corrected if necessary.
The main brake spring (9) is completely freed during the
start process.The brake (11) is in this case only
actuated by the free-wheel brake spring (12). The free- 1 2
wheel spring must be set such that the wrapping material
can be drawn in properly but is still held taught. The
setting of the main brake springs must be such that the
wrapping material is cut cleanly and the roll with the
wrapping material hand only just be turned manually. To
make the adjustment to the spring tension undo each of
the self-locking nuts (8) and (13) and correct at the
adjusting screws (1) and (2). Tighten up the self-locking
nuts again after making the adjustment.
5 6
To adjust the time at which the main brake spring is
released, bring hand lever (4) into the middle of the guide

Mechanism
Before making adjustments to the

wrapping mechanism, always swing the
blade carrier into the upper position and
secure by inserting the locking pawl
(right hand side of the machine, behind
the drive wheel on the net wrapping
mechanism). High risk of injury!
Distance Between the Actuating Wheel and

Friction Wheel
The distance between the actuating wheel (1) and the
friction wheel (2) should be a = 1 mm. The adjustment is
made at the adjusting nuts (3). To make the adjustment,
undo the locked adjusting nuts. Adjust the distance and
lock the nuts against each other again. The extension

• Risk of crushing when lowering the pick up.
The checks and adjustments described below are made

with the bale chamber open and the pick up lowered.
a) Insert locking pawl (8). The blade (3) must now be at a

distance of c = 2 - 5 mm from the cutting edge (2). The
adjustment is made at the adjusting screw (9) on the
locking pawl. To make the adjustment undo the self-
locking nut and twist the screw accordingly. Tighten up
the self-locking nut again.
b) The distance from the slightly lowered spring bar (7) to

the adjusting screw (5) in the drive wheel (6) shaft must
be checked in two positions.

12.4.2 The Hydraulic Starter Mechanism

There is a hydraulic starter mechanism for the binding
process available as special equipment for round balers
1 3 without a net wrapping mechanism. The start process is
triggered by actuating the control valve on the tractor. A
hydraulic cylinder (1) is controlled via a high-pressure
hose line. This starts the start process. The control
valve must remain actuated until the twine is taken by
the bale in the bale chamber. The actuating cord
(synthetic cord) for the twine binding mechanism is
hooked into position "3".
2
KR-0-019
Round balers with an additional net wrapping mechanism

are always supplied with a hydraulic starter mechanism.
The synthetic cord (4) must be attached to the lever (2)
using a carabiner hook (detach the steel cord (1) and
fixed to the twine box (3)) so that the starter mechanism
for twine binding can be actuated. The lever (2) is
controlled by the hydraulic cylinder which, via the cord
(4) and the lever (5), actuates the starter mechanism for
the twine feed. The same applies for the net wrapping
mechanism. Here the steel cord is hooked up, which
starts the net wrapping mechanism.
