Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing a Harvest Tec HT200A Moisture System and/or the optional HT238DM Dye
Sprayer Marking System. When attached to any AGCO MF2233/2234/2234XD/2244 baler, this kit will allow
you to read instantaneous moisture. The optional HT238DM will visibly mark the wet areas on your bales. The
HT200A2 includes the star wheels, twine diverters, and ISO module. The HT238DM includes tank, pump,
plumbing, mounting hardware and necessary harness. There is a parts breakdown in the back of the manual to
reference if replacement parts are needed. All replacement parts and dye will be ordered through your local
equipment dealer.
Tools Needed
Standard wrench set
Hammer
Straight edge
Standard socket set
Tape measure
Metal drilling and cutting tools
Center punch
Marker

Installation of HT200A2
Star Wheel Installation
The star wheels are to be mounted on top of the baler, just behind the knotters and under the
walkway on both sides (Figure 1). The notch and holes for the star wheel are precut. If the star
wheels are cutting the twine the sensors and notch must be moved out an additional 1/2" (13mm).
Secure the star wheels with 5/16”x 3” BHCS (x2 each side) from the bottom side. Blocks are dropped
down on the bolts and secured in place with the star wheel twine guards (001-4645, 001-4644). The
twine guard containing the two extra holes will be placed on the right side of the baler. Secure with
5/16” lock washers and nuts.
Star wheel connection found on baler harness shown in Figure 2.
Control Box Installation
You will be installing the ISO moisture module at the front right right side of the baler frame under the
side door. Insert the included rivet nuts into baler frame knockouts and tighten down so rivet nut
expands into baler frame (Figure 3).
Install ISO module so holes match with rivet nuts. Secure with included hardware. Connect ISO
module to baler harness plug located next to baler ECU box (Figure 4)

Installation of Mounting Bracket & Tank
Locate the tank and mounting bracket assembly.
a. Mark the mounting holes and drill out using 3/8” bit. Figures 5 & 6 are recommended mounting
locations. Alternatively dye marker tank can be mounted ground level for ease of filling.
b. Fasten the mounting bracket to the baler using the 5/16” hardware provided in the kit.

Installation of Plumbing
1. Install the tip and nozzle holder assemblies in the suggested locations pictured, shown below.
Use the 1/4” hardware provided to do so.
a. Make sure that the tip assemblies (A) are mounted in line with the star wheels (B) so that
the system is marking the wet spots of the bale. To get the best spray pattern focused
directly on the wet spot of the bale the nozzles will need to be approximately 1” above the
bale that is being marked. A small notch may need to be cut to increase surface area of
the bale being marked if mounting on side of chamber.
2. Once you have the tank and mounting bracket securely fastened to the baler, locate parts A, B,
C, D & E pictured below in Figure 1 or 2. Assemble in the following order: (A) Elbow | (B) nozzle
holder | (C) check valve | (D) reducing bushing | (E) tip as pictured below.
*****Note: All parts should be thread taped*****
3. Once the nozzle holders are fastened to the balers, route the 3/8” hose to the tips. Make sure to
fasten the hose securely but avoid pinching the lines. (Plumbing Diagram pictured on page 10)
*****Keep from routing the hose in the way of moving parts on the baler*****
4. Attach drain hose top hose barb fitting at bottom of tank. Run hose to a secure point and attach
valve assembly.

Setup & Operation:
How to select the HT200A2 moisture system on the baler run screen:
Select the button on the baler main
run screen that has 4 vertical lines.
Then select the settings button that
has two gears on it.
If a HT238DM is installed, select a check
mark next to the marked bale icon. Then
return to baler run screen.
To turn on the moisture system, choose the
check mark next to the moisture symbol and
select Harvest Tec. Then return to the baler run
screen.

7
Setup & Operation Continued:
Setting up the moisture alarm:
If equipped with the HT238DM the
bale is marked upon a high moisture
reading, allowing the operator to
easily identify those bales that are
above their own pre-determined
moisture threshold. A food-grade
dye mixes with water and applies up
to 60 bales and is only triggered 1
time per high moisture occurrence
per bale.
In the baler run screen, the
operator can customize any
of the 4 containers and set
to display moisture.

Moisture Selection
Average Bale
Moisture Selection
If equipped with
HT238DM and turned
ON, the operator can
manually trigger the
dye marker to mark
bale in chamber from
baler Run screen
using this icon.

8
Setup & Operation Continued:
On the baler run screen, the moisture alarm container will turn red, and the
alarm will go off when the bale moisture exceeds the operator’s pre-set moisture
threshold.
The Error message shown below will come up on the baler run screen when
moisture option is turned on but there is no ISO module detected.

HT238DM - Filling Tank & First Time and Annual Startup
1. Filling the Tank
A. Remove the tank lid from the 3 gallon tank. Make sure the tank is clean and completely
empty. Mix the Dye (009-0800) with warm water inside the Dye bottle. Make sure that the
bottle is shaken vigorously so that the dye completely dissolves. Once the solution is mixed,
add it to the 3 gallon tank and fill the tank with water.
2. First Time and Annual Startup
A. Once the tank has been filled the plumbing lines will need to be primed. With the system
turned on and in a paused mode, hold the priming button until all the air is flushed out of the
lines and there is a steady stream of liquid coming from each of the tips.
***NOTE: The system needs to be primed every time the system has run out of dye***
B. The spray option can be activated by turning on the feature in the baler settings; once
selected there will be a green check mark next to the marked bale icon.
C. You can adjust the moisture content level at which you would like the system to mark the ‘Wet
Flakes’ in the bale being made by simply adjusting the high moisture threshold you want to
identify.

Common Question
1. Is the marking dye safe for livestock consumption?
The DSM uses red-colored, food-grade dye and is safe for all livestock.
2. How do I bleed the air out of the lines properly?
Remove the tips from the check valves that they’re threaded into and press the prime button on
the dye marker until the air is pushed out of the lines.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible Cause
Solution
The tips are not spraying Dye
1. The system is out of dye.
2. There is air in the lines,
preventing a steady mist
coming from the tips.
3. Damaged/pinched hose.
4. Tip is plugged.
5. Set point is set too high
1. Check the tank for solution. If the tank
is empty, refill and bleed air from lines.
2. Remove the tips from the check valves
and using the priming button bleed the
air out of the lines.
3. Inspect all the hose making sure the
lines are damaged or pinched.
4. Removed the tip from the bushing and
inspect, clean is necessary.
5. Lower the set point level at which the
user would like to have the bales
marked at.
Maintenance
1. For winter storage, drain all the liquid out of the lines and tank and pump.
