Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing a Harvest Tec Model 601A, 700, 701 Microwave Moisture kit.
Please read this manual carefully to ensure correct steps are taken to attach the system to the baler. This is
designed to read moisture through the baler’s monitor or Apple iPad. A parts break of the system is located in
the back of the manual.
Right and Left sides are determined by facing in the direction of forward travel.
System Requirements
The Baler Processor must have Version 3.3 or higher.
C1000 monitor must have Version 3.0.1 or higher
If equipped with the SBM, the SBM must have Version 4.0 or higher.
*Requirement to run iPad option are
iOS8 or greater operating system, plus the Hay App.
Tools Needed:
Standard wrench set
Hammer
Electric drill and bits
Center punch
Side cutter
Plasma cutter
Standard nut driver set
Grinding wheel
Standard socket set

Microwave Sensor Installation - 601A, 700MWM
Begin by opening the side shields on the baler and go to the right side
of the baler so you can see the right side of the pre-compression
chamber (PCC). Locate the mounting template in the kit. Removed the
bolt (red arrow in figure 1) that attached the linkage that is in the way,
and position the linkage out of the way.
Locate the right side sheet of the PCC and locate the two slotted holes along the front edge that attach the
stripper band to the PCC side sheet. Align the slots on the template with the slots on the side sheet (figure 2).
Clamp the template in place and use a marker or paint pen to mark the location for the eight holes that will
need to be drilled, and also mark the rectangular area that will be cut out (figure 3).

Align the curved edge of the template with the curved edge of the pre-compression chamber. Align the
template so the straight top edge is parallel and 5-1/2” below the edge of the angle bracket. Clamp the
template in place to the side of the pre-compression chamber and mark 8 holes and cutout locations. Mirror on
opposite side (figure 4).

In the eight locations indicated by the marks, drill 3/8” (10mm) diameter holes for the mounting bolts. Cut the
rectangular area out using a grinder with cutoff wheel, reciprocating saw, or plasma cutter. Final results should
look similar to the picture (figure 5). Test the fitment by placing the plastic filler plate (001-2600FP) in the
rectangular hole. If the filler plate extrusion does not fully fit in the cutout, modify the cutout until the flanges of
the filler plate fit flush against the outside of the PCC (figure 6).
Install eight bolts 5/16”x 1” BHCS from the inside of the pre-compression chamber through the side of the PCC
and the plastic filler plate (001-2600FP). Secure the top two bolts and bottom two bolts with 5/16” flanged nuts.
Place a mounting bracket over each of the two bolts on the sides of the filler plate and secure with 5/16”
flanged nuts (figure 7).
The right hand side mounting brackets (001-2600) should be aligned parallel with the long edges of the filler
plate. Locate the sensor that says RX on the gray connector and mount it to the brackets using four 5/16-3/4”
bolts and flanged nuts (figure 8). The grey connector should be pointing down toward the ground.
Repeat the procedure on the left side of the PCC for marking the locations, drilling and cutting, and mounting.
The sensor labeled TX on the gray connector needs to be mounted on the left hand side with the connector
towards the ground.

Microwave Sensor Installation 601A, 700MWM (continued)
Locate the 006-7400 harness (stuffer sensor) and the L-shaped
bracket (001-4648SS) from the parts bag. Attach the stuffer sensor to
the bracket loosely and locate the shielding on the right hand side of
the baler ahead of the stuffer.
Position the stuffer sensor and L-bracket against the outside of the
shield so the sensor is positioned within 3/8” (10mm) of the stuffer
(figure 9). Mark mounting hole location and attach bracket to the
shielding using at least one of the 5/16-1” hex bolts and a flange nut.
Secure the sensor to the bracket by tightening the jam nuts.
Route the wire from the sensor along the existing wiring along the
frame towards the rear of the PCC (figure 10). Secure with cable ties.
Locate the MWM wiring harness (006-6650MW) in the kit. Start by
locating the connector with the white heat shrink label marked RX.
Connect this connector to the sensor mounted on the right side of the
PCC (006-4641MRX). Locate the longer lead that is labeled TX. Route
this wire behind the PCC in an area where it will not be pinched or
snagged.
Locate the bearing on each side of the PCC (figure 11). It works well
to route the wire across to the other side by routing the wire below that
pivoting assembly and securing with cable ties. Connect the connector
labeled TX to the MWM sensor on the left hand side (006-4641MTX).
Secure excess harness slack with cable ties.
Route the rest of the harness along the existing wiring toward the top of the chamber. The wire from the stuffer
sensor will be connected to the 4 pin connector coming off the main harness about 2’ (.6M) from the right hand
sensor.
Route the MWM harness (006-6650MW) to the DCP on the baler and remove the green capped terminating
resistor (006-5650Z) on the pump modular port, connecting the MWM sensors. Secure harness with cable ties.
If there is already an additional module connect to the DCP (PAC, Tagger, ect.) route the MWM harness to the
module that contains the green capped terminator (006-5650Z). Remove the terminator and attach the MWM
harness. Store the green capped connector in a location where it will not be lost (for example toolbox on baler).

Moisture Installation –701MWM
Locate the mounting holes on the back of both the left and right side of the
bale chute (figure 1).
Mount the rear microwave moisture mounting brackets 001-2601 (figure 2) on
the holes using two 3/8” x 3 1/2" hex bolts, nuts and lock washers located in
parts bag D.
Attach the microwave moisture sensors to each mounting bracket. Sensor 006-4641MTX will be mounted or
the left side of the bale chute (figure 3). Sensor 006-4641MRX will be mounted on the right side (figure 4).
Mount the sensors with the wire connection port toward the baler.
Locate the MWM wiring harness (006-6650MWL) in the kit. Start by locating the connector with the white heat
shrink label marked RX. Connect this connector to the sensor mounted on the right side chute (006-
4641MRX).
If connecting to a moisture only system route the MWM harness (006-6650MWL) to the DCP on the baler and
remove the green capped terminating resistor (006-5650Z) on the pump modular port, connecting the MWM
sensors. Secure the harness.
If connecting to a complete applicator system route the MWM harness (006-6650MWL) to the Pump Controller
(006-5672) on the pump plate next to the tank and remove the green capped terminating resistor (006-5650Z)
on the pump modular port. Connect the MWM harness to the pump controller in the modular port. Secure the
harness. The green resistor is no longer needed.
