5_INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
5.1_WORK AREAS
Below is a layout showing the areas in which trained drivers of the machine should remain for safety purposes:
A = tractor control area
B = working area of the machine where access is prohibited during the working phase.
5.2_ENVISAGED USE
The machine compresses the forage, then binds it and offloads a bale onto the ground, obtaining a finished job in only one pass.
The machine collects the forage already prepared in swathes.
The pick-up can be raised hydraulically and adjusted to the ground. With side aprons and two side screw feeders, the forage is collected into a swathe 1,20 m wide which corresponds to the bale width.
A pick-up, a “comb” transport component with alternating movement or rotating rotor and shaped rollers guide the forage into the compression chamber. Here the forage is rotated to form cylindrical bales by rollers driven by chain gears.
Once the compression chamber has been filled to the desired pressure, which can be set to seven different values, an automatic or manual binding system with double twine, net or plastic film, comes into action, controlled by the “Bale Tronic” control unit previously installed in the cabin of the tractor.
After tying, the bale is ejected and deposited on the carriage of the bale wrapper which wraps it under the control of the wrapper control unit.
The wrapper carries out a wrap cycle at the end of which the bale is ejected.

5.3.4.1_CONNECTION OF THE CONTROL SYSTEM
When you connect the machine to the tractor for the first time you must first connect the power supply cable to the battery 12V= of the tractor.
IMPORTANT!:
Be careful not to invert the polarity:
- RED cable = pole “+” (positive)
- BLACK cable = pole “-“ (negative)
This must be done with the tractor off.
The electrical circuit of the machine requires a supply current with negative earth 12V=.
Install the two control units in the cabin of the tractor, using the special attachments that you will find in the respective accessories of the control units, so that they are clearly visible and within reach of the operator.
Connecting the “EasyTronic” control unit:
The electrical circuit of the round baler requires a supply current with negative earth 12V=
The plug "S1" of the battery feed cable must be positioned behind the tractor.
Install the terminal in the tractor cabin so that it is clearly visible and within the reach of the operator
Connect the current cable "C1", outside the machine.
Connect the signal cable "CS", in the tractor cabin”.
Check that the terminal has come on by pressing the appropriate key; if the cables have been connected correctly, the system will come on.
Connection of the bale wrapper control unit:
Voltage 12V (battery power with wires of minimum section 4mm ²).
The power feed cable is already supplied by the factory with a three-pole circular connector meeting the ISO 1724 standard.
If the tractor is not provided with this power feed connector it is possible to remove the connector and use another suitable connector as advised by the centre at which you bought your tractor.
If the connector is removed, please note that the wire marked with 2 is positive while the wire marked with 1 is negative.
The square connector “A” is for the bale wrapper and must be fixed in the rear part of the round baler.
The monitor connector “B” is for the control unit, while the power connector “C” is for the 12V power supply (16 Amp).
Connect the power cable “A” to cable “C”.
Check that the control unit of the bale wrapper comes on using key “POWER”. If the cables have been connected correctly the control unit will light up.

5.3.4.2_CONNECTION OF THE LIGHTING SYSTEM
Connect the electric system and check that all the warning, parking and stop lights are working correctly.
Do not insert unsuitable fuses, do not modify the cables and do not replace plugs and sockets that are not in conformity with the originals.
For any maintenance and/or repair work contact our Assistance Centre.
FERABOLI S.p.A.
declines all liability resulting from failure to observe these warnings.
5.3.4.3_CONNECTION OF THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
WARNING!:
The hydraulic system is very important and is essential for a correct use.
The hydraulic system must be connected to the tractor by pressure to the hose marked with the colour red (3).
The required pressure is 150 bar.
The other hose should have (free) return.
The recommended flow is between 25÷30 liters/1’ (a high oil flow will not speed up the system, but will only generate more heat).
Maximum oil flow is 70 liters/1’.
If the bale wrapper is connected to the tractor, the double acting hydraulic outlet is particularly necessary to ensure that the pressure in the return line (4) is kept below 5 bar.
It frequently happens that the pressure in the return line increases if the external hydraulic lever of the tractor is shifted from its engaged position.
The machine is equipped with hydraulic quick-release couplings according to ISO
5675.
Make sure that these couplings are suitable for your tractor.
Pressure peaks increase the risk of damage, especially to the seals of the hydraulic motor.
The hydraulic oil of the tractor must be clean.
Check when the seals and the oil filter of the tractor were last changed.
If the oil of the tractor is too dirty the high pressure filter will block in three minutes.
JD tractors:
If the bale wrapper has to be connected to a tractor with closed centre hydraulic system, close valve
A on the main valve block of the wrapper. Please note that for tractors with open centre hydraulic system the valve lever should be in position 1, for closed centre systems it should be in position 2.
For tractors with load sensing hydraulic systems (i.e. JD tractor of latest generation which can be recognized thanks to the lever featuring a rabbit-turtle symbol on the oil outlet) it is enough to limit the oil flow to the wrapper to ~20 litre/1’ by means of the flow adjuster located on the tractor and leave valve A in the open position. Do this check and seek advice from the centre at which you bought your tractor.

Loosen the screw “V” that secures the block “T”, and position it in one of the holes located on the side of the pick-up to suit the work to be done.
Then screw back the screws “V”.
DUETTO 125
WARNING!:
- Position the block “T” in the same position on both the left and right sides of the pick-up.
Remount the plate.
For short products and/or swathes of low volume the plate should be close to the pick-up tines while for tall products and/or voluminous swathes the plate should be further from the tines of the pick-up.
5.5.5_CHOOSING WORKING PRESSURE
The operating pressure must be selected that suits the density required and on the basis of the product to be baled.
The pressure selectors are located in the rear part of the machine on both sides.
To change the working pressure:
Unscrew and rotate the two small doors located on the rear guards.
To change the working pressure turn selector “M” to the number selected for the density desired:
position “1” = low density
position “7“= high density
Make sure to position both switches to the same number.

DUETTO 125
If your machine is provided with a cutter system, you will have the option of cutting the product while picking up the swathes.
Using the control terminal, the knives must be engaged in the chamber in order to be able to cut.
IMPORTANT!
Switch on the “F_bus” system and follow the instructions for engaging or disengaging the knives as shown in paragraph 8.8.3_Cutter device”.
The cutting length is :
77mm for TOPCUT model
45mm for ULTRACUT model
If you wish to cut a longer product it is necessary to remove some of the knives.
Further information regarding the adjustment, replacement and maintenance of the knives can be found in the paragraph “7.7_Maintenance and adjustment of the cutter”.
5.5.7_LOADING THE PRE-TENSIONERS
Open the pre-tensioner head as shown in the figure and secure it firmly with the hook.

41
DUETTO 125
5.6_IN-FILED OPERATION
Maximum performance when the various products are harvested and baled can be only ensured if the following instructions are complied with.
Conditioning:
It is important that forage is conditioned as this ensures an even moisture content of stems and leaves.
Long stem crops, which are difficult to work with, elastic and tough, must be conditioned in order to break the stems and reduce their resistance to rolling when the bale is being formed.
To bale maize stalks it is advisable to shred for better bale formation and density.
Do not shred too fine!
Swathes:
The preparation of the swathes (windrow) is very important to ensure bales are correctly formed.
When the forage has been cut and properly dried the swathes must be formed.
The swathes can be single or double but not greater than the capacity of the pick-up.
When double swathes are made it is important that they be left beside each other and not piled into one heap.
Individual swathes can be 0.50-0.60 m wide, but in this case a ‘zig-zag’ pattern should be followed so that the machine can be fed correctly.

6_OPERATION
SWITCHING
When the machine has been set up as previously described, you can now start working
Switch on the “F_bus” control system in order to start work.
DUETTO 125
Before starting work you can use the terminal to review and/or change the program values with
which your machine has been set up.
Before starting work:
make sure that the arms of the tying units (twine binder and net wrapper) are in the rest position and that the respective cutting devices are released (deactivated).
check that the tailgate is closed correctly.
make sure that the bale wrapper is in the correct position and that the rotating platform is in the horizontal position.
Take a position on the swathe: open the pick-up stopcock (position “1 = OPEN”) and lower it.
You can now engage the PTO and begin collection. The rotation speed of the PTO must be between 450 and
540 rpm, and this range of values must not be exceeded.
For further information on how to change the programming of the “F_bus” control system and how to engage and disengage the knives, see chapters “8.3_EasyTronic”.
6.2_ FEED SPEED AND LOADING
The feed speed depends on the type of product to be baled and the ground contours.
Proceed with the tractor in motion so as to load the product into the machine’s chamber correctly.
6.3_BALE TYING, WRAPPING AND UNLOADING
When the bale is completed the control unit warns you with a
“STOP” message on the display and a continuous acoustic signal to stop the tractor immediately so that the tying device can tie the bale just finished.
Once tying is complete and after the word “END” appears on the display, the sensor on the shaft of the net roller will automatically start to transfer the bale towards the bale wrapper as soon as net has wrapped the bale.
Before starting to wrap a bale check that the wording “READY TO LOAD THE BALE” appears on the last line on the display.
Do not touch the monitor of the bale wrapper before the bale has been wrapped and is ready for offloading.
CAUTION!:
Do not touch the monitor of the bale wrapper for the following reasons:
The bale wrapper controller automatically closes the tailgate of the round baler as soon as the bale has been loaded.
The bale wrapper controller constantly checks that the wrapping is proceeding correctly.
43
DUETTO 125
When the bale has been completely wrapped the wording “READY TO OFFLOAD” appears on the display.
It is now possible to offload the bale with the “AUTO START” switch”.
CAUTION!:
Before offloading the bale from the footboard of the wrapper:
- Make sure the ground is level or that the machine is in a suitable position if the ground slopes.
- Move any persons near the machine, especially behind the bale wrapper, to a
safe distance.
If the power has been interrupted for any reason by the lasting wrapping, it is advisable to start the wrap arm by pressing the switch 2 downward and holding it down for about 4÷8 turns.
During this period the computer will calibrate the proportional valve.
Since the wrapper works completely automatically, as described in point “8.3_Bale Wrapper Control Unit”, the driver must simply provide a good quality of the bale for the wrapper and the bale wrapper control system will do the rest.
Some valuable advice is given below:
It is necessary for the net to be wrapped around the bale before the bale is ejected from the round baler.
Do a visual check (the net can be seen between the front rollers of the round baler).
If during the setting of the sequence, the question “WAIT FOR START SIGNAL BEFORE
TURNING OVER” was answered with NO, the bale will be offloaded automatically as soon as the film is cut.
Use this option only on flat ground and where hazards cannot be caused!
CAUTION!:
If it is necessary to leave the tractor cabin for any reason, for example to replace the film, stop the tractor engine and remove the key from the
dashboard!
CAUTION!:
Never forget to turn on the safety switch!
This bale wrapper is an automatic machine with very strong cutting elements that are very dangerous and therefore any accidental or sudden movement could be very dangerous!
Clean the area of the load arm regularly of grass residue (for example when the film is replaced), especially the flaps of the bale sensor.
6.3.1_LOADING THROUGH THE BALE WRAPPER WITHOUT FILM ON THE BALE
If the number of wraps is set to 0, the bales are simply loaded through the bale wrapper without applying any film to the bales.
The bale wrapper may then be used to group the bales for easier collection.
6.3.2_INTERRUPTED CYCLES
An interrupted cycle can be resumed at any time. The system memorises the last phase of a cycle sequence even when the cycle is the result of a series of manual or automatic operations.
44
DUETTO 125
If the bale should catch fire:
Immediately expel the bale and keep the tailgate open.
Raise the unloading platform of the bale wrapper completely.
Move the tractor and machine away from the product still to be collected and any other inflammable material.
Put the fire out using the extinguisher, advised as part of your equipment or using water.
6.4_UNBLOCKING THE PRODUCT
CAUTION!:
Should the round baler jam, do not try to remove the product from the machine while it is working.
6.4.1_CLEARING THE PICK UP
The product is blocked between the feed plate and the tines of the pick-up.

- Switch off the tractor engine, remove the keys from the dashboard and wait for all the moving parts of the machine to stop.
- Disconnect all the electronic functions and cut off the current to the con-
trol units.
Basic Control allows you to control the parameters with which to set the double twine tying, independently of the value of the bale diameter:
“A” = distance of the twine from the head of the bale.
“B” = number of turns of twine around the head.
“C” = number of turns of twine around the centre.
To modify the values consult the paragraph “8_Programming the
EasyTronic control unit”.
Adjusting the twine braking device:
There are some twine braking devices on the round baler (located on the twine roll box) to adjust the tension of the twine.
56
Adjust the tension of the twine on the bale by turning the nuts “D” and screws “V” of the twine braking devices, to compress or release the springs “M”:
Tightening the spring “M”, the twine will be more taut.
Loosening the spring “M”, the twine will be slacker.

7.7.3_SHARPENING OF THE KNIVES
The knives should be sharpened with suitable equipment whenever necessary. Bear in mind that knives sharpened well reduce the power requirement and give a better quality cut.
WARNING!:
- When sharpening, be careful not to cause the knives to heat up as this can compromise their resistance to wear.
- Only the part marked as “SIDE” of the knife should be sharpened.
CAUTION!:
- Always work with care bearing in mind the safety regulations.
- The knives are sharp and cut easily; handle them with great care.
- Always use adequate gloves and/or protective gear.
7.8_WHEELS AND TYRES
Tyres of various dimensions can be fitted on the machine. Check the inflation pressure regularly for the type of tyre fitted to you machine referring to the pressure values given in the table “9.5_Pressure
value of tyres ”
.
The inflation pressure of the pick-up wheels should be: 2,5bar.
Check the torque of the nuts on the stud bolts of the wheel hub regularly. It should be 250Nm.
Repairs to the wheels and tyres must be done by specialised personnel provided with suitable equipment.
7.9_BOLT TIGHTENING
Regularly check the securing bolts and screws and if necessary adjust them to the torque values advised in the table “9.4_Torque wrench setting
”.
Check if all the bolts are correctly tightened after the first three hours of work.
Check if all the screws and bolts are correctly tightened after the first 10 bales formed by the machine when new.

7.11_SERIVICNG AND ADJUSTING THE BALE WRAPPER
CAUTION!:
Before adjusting or doing any maintenance or lubrication on the bale wrapper:
- Switch off the tractor engine, remove the keys from the dashboard and wait for all the moving parts of the machine to stop.
- Disconnect all the electronic functions and cut off the current to the con-
trol units.
Check the bolts, nuts and screws regularly and tighten them again if necessary.

7.11.1_BEARINGS OF WRAP ARM.
If there is play in the main bearing of the wrap arm, this may be reduced in the same way as for taper roller bearings in general.
Make sure that the tension nut is correctly tightened before proceeding with adjustment.
64
DUETTO 125
7.11.2_HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
If the bale wrapper is equipped with electric operated valves, it will be particularly important to keep the hydraulic oil clean.
Therefore the automatic bale wrapper is equipped with an oil filter in the pressure line. This filter protects the valve against dirt that could enter the hydraulic system through the quick release couplings between the tractor and the wrapper. This filter cannot however substitute the ordinary oil filter in the tractor.
Therefore the hydraulic oil as well as the hydraulic oil filter of the tractor should be changed at the intervals specified by the tractor manufacturer.
The filters used on tractors are generally low pressure filters and much cheaper than the highpressure filters installed on the bale wrapper.
The filter comes complete with a dirt indicator “A” as shown in the figure.
Regularly check that this dirt indicator is “green”, particularly if the general performances of the wrapper decrease and the oil gets very hot.
Replace the filter immediately as the indicator starts to show red!
7.11.2.1_PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES
The main pressure relief valve “A” shown in the figure alongside is located on the rear side of the main valve block.
The correct setting of the pressure relief valve is 150bar.
7.11.2.2_PROPORTIONAL VALVE
The proportional valve cartridge “P” is located opposite the outlets of the valve block.
If this valve were dirty it would not be able to regulate the bale wrapper speed. This would result in non uniform rotation of the wrap arm with squeaking noises in the valve block.
The filter of the proportional valve can be removed more easily if the securing screws of the valve block are removed, creating greater space and therefore a greater range of action behind the valve block.
If you do not have experience with the hydraulic system, let the cleaning be done only by qualified technicians.

DUETTO 125
7.11.3_THE CONTROL SYSTEM
7.11.3.1_CABIN CONTROL UNIT
Keep the control unit on the mounting bracket provided. When disconnecting the round baler and wrapper unit from the tractor, take particular care to store the control unit in a dry and safe place. Water and humidity can damage the control unit over the time.
Avoid placing the control unit on the ground or floor of the cabin since violent shocks could cause breakage of the connections to the boards and printed circuits.
The cabin control box is fitted with a 500mA fuse.
7.11.3.2_MAIN CONTROL UNIT
There is a 10A fuse in the main control unit on the machine for the relay functions, a 1A fuse for the control unit and a 5A fuse for the mother board.
These fuses cannot be replaced with other types of fuses or higher value fuses.
If during the functional check a relay is found not to be working perfectly or in bad condition then entire relay board A must be replaced.
To change a faulty relay board:
- disconnect the terminal sockets B by lifting them up
- unscrew the 5 screws and lift the board gently upwards.
When fitting the new board, ensure that the board is correctly positioned in the same position, so that the connector pins are inserted into their corresponding holes under the board.
7.11.3.3_CABLES
Ensure that all connection cables are not damaged, and that they are mounted so that they will not get caught in rotating parts or in the tractor wheel during work.
Keep the cable connectors clean and dry.
Replace damaged cables and cable connectors immediately.
7.11.4.4_MAGNETS AND SENSORS
The magnets and sensors have to be protected from damage.
They are to be mounted with an air gap of about 5-15 mm.
The sensor head should protrude by about 10÷20mm from the mounting bracket for optimal operation.
Note:
To change the stop = film cut position for the wrap arms, the rotation position sensor “A” can be moved to the oval slot.
The sensor “B” is the speed sensor with 12 pulses/rev.
66
7.11.4.5_COMMUTATOR
Above the main bearing of the wrap arm, there is a 4-pole electric rotating connection “D”.
The commutator is generally maintenance-free; nonetheless should connection problems arise, the brushes can be dismantled and cleaned by pulling them out by hand in the direction shown by the arrow.
DUETTO 125
7.11.5_ADJUSTMENTS
For wrapping bales of silage it is of fundamental importance for the film applied to the bale to be correctly pre-tensioned for good overlapping.
It is therefore recommended to get familiar with the operation, adjustment and maintenance of the pre-tensioners to ensure that the right quantity of film is wound around the bale.
7.11.5.1_NUMBER OF WRAPS
To adjust the number of wraps required, connect the power to the system.
Press SET until the first number (2 in 24) of the display starts flashing.
If you the SET key once more, the second number (4 in 24) will start flashing.
To decrease the flashing number press
MENU-.
To increase the flashing number press
MENU+.
Press
EXIT to save and store your choice.
At this stage the BALE COUNTER will start flashing.
If no modifications are needed, press
EXIT twice and the display will stop flashing. This way the first change to the program has been made.

DUETTO 125
7.11.6_WRAPPING GENERAL ADJUSTMENTS
For wrapping bales of silage it is of fundamental importance for the film applied to the bale to be correctly pre-tensioned for good overlapping.
It is therefore recommended to get familiar with the operation, adjustment and maintenance of the pre-tensioners and with the operative modes to ensure that the right quantity of film is wound around the bale.
7.11.6.1_PRE-TENSIONERS
The plastic film roll is inserted on the tensioner following the instructions provided on the sticker and on the figure.
Make sure that the external (adhesive) side of the roll sticks to the bale.
The bale wrapper is normally factory set for 750 mm film; there is only a limited possibility of using 500mm.
Quickly check the pretension.
Generally speaking the 750mm film reduces its width to approx.
600mm when tension is equal to 70%.
7.11.6.2_ACCURATE CONTROL OF PRE-TENSIONING
When the wrapping has reached half–way round the bale trace a line for about 10 cm using an ink pen from the centre of the roll of film.
Start the wrap cycle slowly and wrap the bale until the film with the line is securely fixed to the bale.
Stop the wrap cycle and measure the new length of the line.
A tension adjustment of 70% should correspond to 17±1cm.
If the tension adjustment is not correct, clean the tensioning rollers and make sure that the bearings are in good condition and can rotate freely.
68
DUETTO 125
7.11.7_FILM OVERLAP
For even overlapping of the film, adjust the height of the pre-tensioner so that it corresponds as far as possible to the centre of the bale.
The wrapper is normally set for use with 750mm film and a feed of about 23÷25cm between wraps.
This is normally used for 2+2 layers on the bale.
If for some reason 3+3 (or 3) layers were used then the sprocket 5 shown in the figure below should be such that Z = 30/38.
To use this alternative sprocket the main transmission chain must be extended for 8 rolls.
The joint + 8 rolls is joined to the sprocket 30/38 on the right outer side of the platform.
Film width Sprocket used Layers on bale Approx. feed
A quick check on the right side of the platform will reveal which sprocket “A” is idling indicating therefore that the other size is in use.
If at “A” the sprocket 3+3 is visible then the 2+2 is mounted on the transmission.

8.9. WORK PHASES
DUETTO 125
When the machine has been set up as described in chapter “5_Instructions for use”, you can now start working.
Press the “ON-OFF” key to switch on the system.
EasyTronic will load the data and then the "initial screen”.
In the event that the work icon does not flash (icon not selected), use the navigation keys “+” “-” “R” “L” to move to the work icon.
In order to start work, depending on the EasyTronic display must show one of the following screens:
“
initial screen”
“ready”
Take a position on the swathe; open the pick-up stop valve and lower it, engage the PTO and start picking up.
“Loading and formation of the bale”
Using the EasyTronic you can follow all the various phases in the formation of the bale.
When the press chamber will be almost filled and one of the two filling sensors will open , EasyTronic will alert you by flashing a bale on the display and an alarm rings until the opening of the second sensor filling, then on the screen will appear
“STOP”
.
This signal indicates that you must immediately stop the tractor so that the binder can tie the bale.
During work, there are other screens appearing on the display that inform you concerning the operations the machine is carrying out at that moment.
On the "work screen" you can also monitor:
type of binding (or wrapping) active,
If your machine is provided with a cutter system (mod. CUT):
state of the knives (on or off).
For further information on the bale formation display screens see chapter “8.7.2_Work menu”.
103
DUETTO 125
“Binding”
EasyTronic can start and carry out the binding process at the end of each bale formation automatically or in operator mode:
Automatic binding:
When the "STOP" signal appears the binder starts the binding process autonomously.
Binding in manual mode:
When the "STOP" signal is produced, press the "START-STOP" key to start the binding cycle.
From the work screen it is possible to switch from the manual to the automatic mode, and vice versa, simply by pressing the keys "F2" --->> "Automatic binding” --->> “OK”
“Binding with TWINE”
When the "STOP" signal appears the tractor must be stopped and the PTO maintained at a speed of no less than 350rpm.
If the speed of the PTO drops below the required value, a fast intermittent acoustic signal will warn you of the problem.
The arm of the binder will move into the chamber positioning itself at the distance set in the program for binding the right end of the bale with the number of turns set in the program.
It then reverses the direction of motion, returns to the rest position binding the central part of the bale.
Then it stops to tie the left end of the bale and returning to the rest position activates the twine cutting system.
If for some reason the twine is not taken by the bale or if it should get blocked during the binding process,
EasyTronic will warn you by means of an acoustic signal and a visual warning on the display.
The binding process will in any case continue to the end.
The binding process can be restarted by pressing the key “START-STOP” again.
If both twines should break or get blocked, the binding process will be interrupted automatically and the arm of the binder will stop. The wording "Incorrect bale binding" will appear on the display.
“NET wrapping”
When the "STOP" signal appears the tractor must be stopped and the PTO maintained at a speed of no less than 350rpm but not above 500rpm.
If the speed of the PTO drops below the required value, a fast intermittent acoustic signal will warn you of the problem.
The wrapper arm will advance towards the chamber and return to a stand-by position to wait for the unwinding of the metres of net necessary for completing the number of binding turns set in the program. It will then return to the rest position after activating the net cutting.
If for some reason the bale should not take the net or if the net should break during wrapping, EasyTronic will warn you by means of an acoustic signal and a visual warning on the display.
The wrapping process will be interrupted automatically and the arm of the binder will return to the rest position.
104
DUETTO 125
EasyTronic will allow you to monitor the all the phases of both processes (twine binding or net wrapping) directly on the display.
For further information on the binding screens, consult chapter “8.7.2_Work menu”.
You can restart the binding process pressing the key “START-STOP”; a new binding cycle will begin with the same type of material (twine or net) and the same settings as those used before.
It is possible to change the binder, without modifying the program using the keys:
"work screen" --->> "F2" --->> "select binder” --->> “OK”
IMPORTANT!
Whenever you switch off and switch on EasyTronic, the default binding mode will always be set to "manual" (icon of the hand).
With any diameter and whenever you wish, it is possible to tie the bale by pressing the “START-STOP” key.
“Bale ejection”
After binding, EasyTronic will tell you on the display to open the tailgate in order to eject the bale on the ground.
WARNING! Before opening the tailgate:
Make sure that you are on flat ground or in a suitable position if the ground is sloping.
Keep any persons away from the machine and especially from behind the tailgate.
Operate the lever of the hydraulic switch located on the tractor to open the tailgate; wait for the bale to be ejected then re-close the tailgate.
The "initial screen" will reappear on the display; this means that the machine is ready to perform another work cycle.
If the tailgate should not shut normally, EasyTronic will warn you of the problem by means of a visual signal on the display indicating the side or sides that are open.
IMPORTANT!
Never begin collection with the tailgate open or even just one hook open.
The open time of the tailgate is determined autonomously by the EasyTronic; once the bale has been ejected,
EasyTronic will leave the tailgate open and wait for you to close the tailgate hydraulically.

8.11_CONTROL UNIT OF BALE WRAPPER
8.11.1_SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
As this machine is equipped with an electronic control system it is important for the user to be familiar with the operation of the machine to avoid hazards due to the automatic operation of several functions on the machine. It must be remembered that a function can start accidentally if the tractor is moving!.
8.11.2_GENERAL LAYOUT OF THE SYSTEM
The system is made up of:
- a control unit in the tractor’s cabin,
- a computer with relay board on the bale wrapper,
- sensors placed in various positions of the round baler and of the bale wrapper,
- a proportional hydraulic valve block on the bale wrapper.
8.11.3_SHORT DESCRIPTION OF MACHINE FUNCTIONS
Two operation modes are provided:
Fully mode mode
8.11.3.1_COMPLETELY AUTOMATIC MODE
When the bale wrapper is working in completely automatic mode, the program is automatically activated by the net wrapper of the round baler. The process takes place as shown below.
On the display of the control unit of the bale wrapper the following message will appear: READY
TO LOAD THE BALE.
As soon as the net is bound around the bale and cut, the rear tailgate of the round baler is raised by the bale wrapper control unit.
The bale enters the load arm activating the “bale on load arm” sensor. The arm then loads the bale onto the platform.
At this point the rear tailgate of the round baler closes. The load arm lowers and the platform assumes a horizontal position.
The wrap arms start to rotate slowly, making approximately one turn to fix the film to the bale.
The film cutting devices rise slightly to release the end of the film and wrapping proceeds at normal wrapping speed.
The wrap arm makes the number of wraps requested, slows down and stops approximately in a position parallel to the structure.
The cutting device opens, the wrap arm rotates towards the cutting position, the film cutting device then closes, cutting the film and holding the end of the film.
At this point the following message appears on the display: READY TO OFFLOAD THE BALE.
If the machine is located in a suitable place, press the AUTO switch once. The platform will incline backwards; wait for the bale to be ejected and incline the platform completely forwards to the loading position ready to receive the next bale. The following message will appear on the display of the bale wrapper control unit: READY TO LOAD THE BALE.
If the answer to the question WAIT FOR START SIGNAL BEFORE OFFLOADING displayed in the program was NO then the bale will be offloaded as soon as the bale wrapper has terminated the wrap cycle. In most cases this function is not advisable.
108
DUETTO 125
8.11.3.2_SEMIAUTOMATIC MODE
In the semiautomatic mode, use the switch AUTO START to activate the wrapper program.
The process takes place as shown below.
On the display of the control unit of the bale wrapper the following message will appear: READY
TO LOAD THE BALE.
As soon as the net is wrapped around the bale and the round baler is ready to eject the bale, the driver presses the AUTO START switch on the bale wrapper control unit. The rear tailgate of the round baler will be raised at this point by the hydraulic system of the bale wrapper to eject the bale.
The bale enters the load arm activating the “bale on load arm” sensor. The arm then loads the bale onto the platform. At this point the rear tailgate of the round baler closes. The load arm lowers and the platform assumes a horizontal position.
The wrap arms start to rotate slowly, making approximately one turn to fix the film to the bale.
The film cutting devices rise slightly to release the end of the film and wrapping proceeds at normal wrapping speed.
The wrap arm makes the number of wraps requested, slows down and stops approximately in a position parallel to the structure.
The cutting device opens, the wrap arm rotates towards the cutting position, the film cutting device then closes, cutting the film and holding the end of the film.
At this point the following message appears on the display: READY TO OFFLOAD THE BALE.
If the machine is located in a suitable place, press the AUTO switch once. The platform will incline backwards; wait for the bale to be ejected and incline the platform completely forwards to the loading position ready to receive the next bale. The following message will appear on the display of the bale wrapper control unit: READY TO LOAD THE BALE.
If the answer to the question WAIT FOR START SIGNAL BEFORE OFFLOADING displayed in the program was NO then the bale will be offloaded as soon as the bale wrapper has terminated the wrap cycle. In most cases this function is not advisable.
8.11.4_FAULT FINDING
8.11.4.1_ ERROR MESSAGES ON THE DISPLAY
The machine may monitor the state of each moving part of the machine by means of the sensors. If the position or state required of a sensor or device does not conform to the safety requirements specified in the software then the system will stop the machine cycle at the point the error occurred or if the operator has tried to send commands that are not authorised or dangerous. The operative error will then appear on the display.
Example:
A bale has been wrapped in manual mode.
The operator interrupts the wrap cycle with the wrap arm at a distance from the wrap arm sensor.
If an offload command is then given, the system will communicate on the display that this command cannot be executed and is unsuitable with the following message: “WRAP ARM NOT IN POSI-
TION”.
To return the machine to a correct operating condition, the operator must now send a command to the system regarding the position of the wrap arm using the MANUAL POSITIONING SWITCH (= switch number 2 down); in this way the wrap arm will look for its rest position (unload position).
Similarly, if a manual wrap cycle is requested and the platform is not positioned horizontally, the system will not authorise this operation and the reasons for this refusal will appear on the display.

TEST PROGRAM
Press the MENU button until “HARDWARE TEST” appears on the display.
At this point press the SET button in order to access the test program and then press the MENU button again until the test program requested appears on the display.
The HARDWARE TEST PROGRAM of the system is a test program accessible by the operator and is used as an instrument of assistance which, in combination with messages on the display, makes problem solving less complicated.
It includes the following:
BUILT-IN VOLTMETER
This checks the battery feed voltage from the battery of the tractor. At the same time the voltmeter also displays:
current feed level
feed level the last time the hydraulic system was ac-
tivated.

DUETTO 125
STATE OF SENSORS
This program enables the operator to determine whether the system is capable of “detecting” the individual sensors. An inactive sensor will give a “0” indication while an active sensor will give a “1” indication.
Therefore, if it is required to test the machine inclination sensor for example, use the MENU buttons to find the display that will visualise what is shown below and then proceed manually or activate the sensor with a magnet. The sensor state will then change at this point from 0 to 1.
The tailgate sensor (Nr 1) is active
The “bale on load arm” sensor (Nr 2) is inactive.
All the sensors can be checked in the same way.
8.11.4.3_SENSOR NAME AND FUNCTION
TAILGATE sensor INSTALLED: yes
This sensor determines whether the rear tailgate of the round baler is closed so that the wrap cycle can start.
BALE LOCATED ON LOAD ARM sensor: yes
This sensor determines when the bale is correctly positioned on the load arm. The system requires a constant signal from this sensor before the bale is loaded onto the platform.
LOAD ARM UP sensor INSTALLED: yes
When this signal is received the system assumes that the bale is on the platform and moves the platform back to the horizontal position and the load arm to a low position.
HORIZONTAL TABLE sensor INSTALLED: yes
This sensor checks the correct position of the platform for the loading, unloading and wrap cycle.
FILM BREAK sensors INSTALLED: yes
This sensor stops the wrap cycle if both the rolls of film are empty or if the film coming from the roll breaks. If a roll is empty or the film breaks, the cycle will continue but will reduce the count of layers to 1 for each turn (assuming a single wrap arm).
Note that the sensor is not active and is set by default in this state in the factory.
MULTI-PULSE ROTATION sensor: yes
This sensor monitors the rotation speed of the wrap arm and determines the point at which to reduce the speed and to activate the cutting device at the start and end of the cycle.
ROTATION sensor (1 PULSE/REV.) INSTALLED: YES
This sensor counts the layers of film applied and determines the stop/rest position of the wrap arm.
WARNING!:
All the sensors installed on the machine should, under normal working conditions, be engaged.
The sensor engage / disengage facility is only intended as an aid for the operator in case of a defective sensor as it provides for access to operate manually the machine in those steps where a sensor is defective, provided that it has been disengaged.

STOP
Supplementary film layers.
When the machine is in operation, each time this button is pressed increases programmed number of film layers by one for the cycle in question.
At the end of a cycle, pushing this button and giving an AUTO START command always restarts the wrap cycle with a minimum number of turns equal to the number of the film release. If the system has been reset and a bale has been positioned on the platform but without the BALE ON SYMBOL (0), a symbol at the top right corner of the display, pressing this button for six seconds will bring back this symbol and the control unit will acknowledge that a bale has been placed on the machine and that the cycle can now be started.
Increase in wrapping speed.
Whenever this button is pressed the wrapping speed is increased. The maximum obtainable is specified in the service level not accessible to the user. The minimum speed is about 12 rpm. The speed required will appear on the display and also the actual speed when the operator uses the speed increase or decrease keys. The system will then lock the speed at this value.
Decrease in wrapping speed.
Whenever this button is pressed the wrapping speed is decreased. The maximum obtainable is specified in the service level not accessible to the user. The minimum speed is about 12 rpm. The speed required will appear on the display and also the actual speed when the operator uses the speed increase or decrease keys. The system will then lock the speed at this value.
With the START switch the AUTOMATIC cycle is started.
This may also be used to reduce the wrap cycle. Example: the wrap cycle has been set to
30 layers of film. The operator wishes to stop the cycle and offload the bale using only the automatic accessories of the system since the machine is positioned behind the round baler and therefore not operated in manual mode. If the START button is pressed during an automatic cycle the control unit considers the bale as completed and the machine will position the wrap arm when ready. The display will now communicate that the bale is ready for offloading. When the wrap arm is positioned, giving a START command causes the bale to be offloaded.
Pressing the STOP button, all the communications between the monitor and the computer of the bale wrapper are disconnected. All movements will be stopped. In combination with Drawbar in switch, the beacon will be activated.

A YES indication will cause non standard variables that must be recovered on the basis of
the specific settings of the factory.
The system has two single timer tables that allow the machine to function correctly between two sets of minimum and maximum oil flow rate values. For example (H) a high level could produce a flow rate that in turn produces a wrapping speed lying between 25 and 30 rpm and (L) a low level produces a speed between 20 and 25 rpm. In order to run the machine in the best possible way the most suitable table should be used.

CAUTION!:
- Remove children and non authorised persons from the machine during the test. The wrap arm could suddenly rotate possibly at high speed during the test.
- Remove the rolls of film from the pre-tensioners.
Press the MENU↓ key repeatedly until TEST HARDWARE TEST is reached.
Then press SET → and MENU↓ until screen n. 39 is reached:
Press switch n. 2 at the top (for a normal wrap arm speed) and keep it activated.
The wrap arm will start to rotate very slowly (~ 0 – 3 RPM).
Repeat MENU↑ to increase the value of PWM% (and the speed of the wrap arm).
The PWM% shows the quantity of current absorbed by the proportional valve. As soon as the PWM% reaches the value of about 25.00 the wrap arm will begin to accelerate.
The higher the PWM% produced using the MENU↑ button, the faster the wrap arm rotates.
When increasing the wrap arm speed it is important to increase the PWM% value constantly without sudden jumps.
Likewise when the PWM% value is decreased using MENU↓, the wrap arm speed must follow the decreasing value of the PWM% gradually.
If this does not happen, the cartridge of the proportional valve must be cleaned or replaced.
Press the MENU↓ key repeatedly until TEST HARDWARE TEST is reached.

12_DISPOSAL
Do not dump the machine at the end of its working life. Contact a specialist disposal firm or get in touch with
FERABOLI S.p.A.
direct for instructions on the matter.
WARNING!:
Before beginning dismantling operations all staff should have read and understood fully the safety instructions (at the beginning of this manual) and wear Personal Protection Equipment (safety gloves, heavy-duty work boots, overalls, safety goggles, etc.).
DO NOT DUMP POLLUTANTS SUCH AS OIL, LUBRICANTS,
ETC.
CAUTION!:
Before dismantling the machine carry out the following instructions:
Stop the machine and make sure that all the moving parts of the ma-
chine have stopped.
Disengage the PTO.
Disconnect all the electronic functions and cut off the current to the con-
trol units.
Lay the machine on ground on a stable position.
Engage the parking device.
Disconnect the tractor’s parts that need to be disconnected.
Move the tractor away from the machine.
Switch off the tractor engine and remove the keys from the dashboard.
Engage the hand brake.
Read the operating and maintenance manual.
Wear suitable personal protective equipment (PPE).
During machine dismantling, separate the various types of material: steel, aluminium, plastic materials.
Dispose of the materials following the provisions set forth by the legislation in force in the country where the machine will be used.
To dismantle the machine, follow the procedure given below and pay THE GREATEST ATTENTION.
THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM IS UNDER HEAVY PRESSURE.
Connect properly cleaned hydraulic couplings and make sure the hydraulic circuits of tractor and machine are pressure-free. To prevent hydraulic couplings from getting dirty or damaged always fit - after use - the original plastic protection caps supplied. Check and, if necessary, replace damaged hoses and unions. As a general rule, every hose must be replaced after 5 years from the date printed on the hose. High-pressure hydraulic oil can penetrate your skin and cause serious injuries, hence we recommend that you always release pressure before disconnecting hoses and carrying out any controls. Before resuming pressure inside the system check that hoses and connections are tight.
We advise you to use a sheet of blotting paper or cardboard to detect leaks (if any).
CAUTION!:
If high-pressure hydraulic oil penetrates your skin immediately apply to a first-aid medical centre or hospital otherwise the risk of serious infections could be run.
Disconnect the connections of the service systems: hydraulic connections and any electrical connections.
Secure all moving parts (if any).
Proceed with the dismantling of cardan shafts, guards and structures.
CAUTION!:
ENSURE SUITABLE PROTECTION OF ANY PARTS WHICH MAY CAUSE INJURY.
BEFORE DISMANTLING THE HYDRAULIC CYLINDERS MAKE SURE THAT THE PARTS ARE
MOVED IN SUCH A WAY AS TO PREVENT THEIR FALL OR ANY SUDDEN MOVEMENT
THAT MAY RESULT IN COLLISION OR CRUSHING.
