Preparing the baler for transportation
Before transporting your baler please perform these basic checks to avoid injury to
persons or damage to your machine.
Check that all doors are closed and latched
Any trailing cables are tidied away
The oil bung is in the tank
All parts are bolted down parts are tight
Any loose parts are placed inside the baler
Moving the baler
Moving the baler should only be done via the use of a forklift or pallet truck. Do not ‘drag’
the machine around by hand as this could cause injury to you, or damage to the machine.
When lifting a baler the forks or pallet truck should be inserted in the gap in the base as
shown below (approx weights 500 - 600kg’s).
7
Loading / Unloading the baler
Carefully lift the machine on to the trailer. If transporting a single baler place it on the
centre of the trailer over the axle to maintain trailer balance during transport.
If transporting multiple balers lift them onto the trailer via a fork truck. Carefully position the
balers back –back and bolt them together via the bolt holes provided on both sides of the
base and the top, this will provide extra stability during transport.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD A PERSON OR BODY PART BE UNDER
THE MACHINE DURING LOADING OR MOVING
When the baler or balers are in position on the trailer they should be tied down using a
ratchet strap. One strap across the top of the baler is sufficient to keep it fixed during
transport.
When unloading the baler the same procedure applies as when loading

BALERS DURING

Machine Installation
Although the baler is suitable for outside use it is recommended that it is located inside or
under a protective cover. Doing so will extend the life of your machine.
It is important to know how to safely move your machine into position. To do this use
either a fork truck or a pallet truck and lift the machine via the base (page 6.) Do not
attempt to move the machine by hand as this could cause injury to you or damage the
machine.
Fix your machine to a solid level surface to avoid movement while in operation. Brackets
are provided with to the baler so it can be screwed into a wall or sound concrete ground.
Use with proper fixings (M12 rawl bolts) and bolt down on 2 corners as shown in below.
