1.4 DESCRIPTION AND USE
OF THE MACHINE
The Tuareg Cut Round Baler
manufactured by MASCAR is a machine
bearing the CE marking in conformity
with the provisions of the directive
98/37/EC, as described in the
declaration of conformity each round
baler comes with.
The machine is basically made up of a
self-contained structure of metal panels
fitted on a bearing frame. Inside, it houses
various mechanisms for picking up the
agricultural products and for pressing them
into cylindrical bales. The entire assembly
is supported by an axle with tyres so that it
can be transported, and features a height-
adjustable drawbar for hitching to and
towing by the tractor.
The motive power required for the
machine’s operation is transmitted from the
tractor by means of the power-takeoff shaft
(bearing CE marking) and the connection
of the round baler’s electrical system to the
tractor’s 12V power socket. The round
baler’s electrical system controls the
control unit and the lighting system.
The round baler’s hydraulic system is
controlled by means of a tractor-mounted
hydraulic unit connected to the round baler
by means of two quick-release flexible
hoses attached to the couplings located on
the tractor. The hydraulic unit features two
levers that enable the various operations to
be selected from the tractor.
The levers control the cylinders opening
and closing the round bale unloading gate
as well as the pickup cylinder.
The round baler is a machine designed
solely for use in farming, for the picking
up of hay, straw, maize stubble and
green forage and their pressing into
cylindrical-shaped bales.
