[QUOTE="Dave W, post: 5257476, member: 643"] Should be a mechanical trip. As the bale is made it pulls the linkage up on the slide with the black plastic knob. Move the knob to alter bale size. When bale is up to size it trips the belt tensioner on the pump and the string arm moves across. It should have a simple box in the cab which lights and buzzes when the arm is fully extended. Will work without but you’ll need to keep an eye on the bale size and watch the string arm for movement when it’s close. If unsure get someone to open the back door with pto running. This replicates the bale being made and you can watch what’s happening with the linkages and how it works. Pull string out first though so it doesn’t get in pickup reel [/QUOTE]
