Installation of Star Wheels and Bale Rate Sensors
Model 444T, 445T, 450T, 451T (Two-Tie only)
Locate parts bag B. The pair of star wheels will need to mount on the bottom side as close to the front of the
bale chute as possible and at least 10 mm away from any metal. They will need to maintain a safe distance
away from the twine.
The star wheels will require two holes to be drilled per block, when drilling make sure to keep the wheel square
to the bale chamber. Any angle will cause stress on the wheel and will eventually cause the wheel to work
itself out of the block. Some balers may require a notch cut on the bottom of the bale chamber to mount the
star wheels as close to the front of the chamber as possible. Use the template in back of manual to aid in
installation.
Use the supplied bolts and place the carriage head inside of the bale chamber followed by lock and nut. Next
attach the star wheels to the bolts followed by flat washer, lock washer and nut. The right side star wheel will
have the bale rate sensor bolted to the bottom of the block.
First, remove the cover from the star wheel block and use a 1/4” nut driver to remove the nut from the
electronic swivel. Next, run the star wheel sensor wire 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. The sensor with the longer sensor
wire should say “FRONT”, which indicates it should be placed in the front sensor hole. The sensor wire with the
shorter wire should say “BACK.” The tip of the sensor should be placed no more than 3mm away from the star
wheel teeth and no less than 1 mm from the star wheel teeth. Each sensor will have an LED light located on
the sensor by the sensor holder. Once the unit is powered up spin the wheel and make sure that both led lights
turn on and off. If they don’t turn on and off, adjustments may need to be made.
Once the star wheel connection is complete, run the harness along the baler frame to the BMP. See wiring
system diagram.

Locate parts bag B. The pair of star wheels will need to mount on the top as close to the knotters as possible
and at least 10 mm away from any metal. They will need to maintain a safe distance away from the twine.
The star wheels will require two holes to be drilled per block, when drilling, make sure to keep the wheel
square to the bale chamber. Any angle will cause stress on the wheel and will eventually cause the wheel to
work itself out of the block. A template can be found in the back of the manual to help with the placement of
the star wheel.
Use the supplied 5/16” allen head carriage bolts and place the carriage head inside of the bale chamber
followed by lock and nut. Next attach the star wheels to the bolts followed by the twine diverters 001-4644 and
001-4645. Finally secure the entire block using nuts, locks, and flat washers. The twine diverter with the bale
rate sensors needs to be mounted on the right side of the baler.
Remove the four screws holding the plastic cover and attach one wire eye loop per star wheel through the
grommet and tighten down with the nut attached to the swivel. Reinstall the cover and run the wires up to the
pump plate. You will need to use zip ties to attach the wires so as to not interfere with normal baler use.
