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

Please take into consideration the centre of gravity of the machine when moving as it is high (shown by the black spot on the diagram below). This makes the machine unstable and top heavy. Take care to ensure that there are no personnel in the vicinity during the lifting process and only trained personnel to perform lifting duties.

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 1760kg’s).

CENTRE OF GRAVITY FRONT VIEW END VIEW

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 so that the weight is evenly distributed over the trailer, this will provide extra stability during transport.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD A BODY 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 minimum of 2 ratchet straps. The baler comes equipped with tie down positions on the top four corners, pick the front tie position on one side and the rear one on the other.

When unloading the baler the same procedure applies as when loading.

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 5.) Do not attempt to move the machine by hand as this could cause injury to you or damage the machine, in part due to the machines high centre of gravity.

Fix your machine to a solid level surface to avoid toppling or movement while in operation. Brackets are provided with to the baler so it can be screwed into sound concrete ground. Use with proper fixings (M12 rawl bolts if fixing to concrete) and bolt down on either the 4 corners of the base as shown in below.

V50 Ram Installation Procedure

When you receive your V50 machine, the ram will be dropped into the machine’s chamber for

transport purposes (Fig 1). This procedure outlines the steps to be taken to re-fit the ram and

centreplate back into its operating position. It also outlines the steps to be taken to lower the ram

and centreplate if the machine has a requirement to be transported again for any reason.

To fit the ram back to its housing, carry out the following steps;

1) Plug in machine and turn on. (Check motor rotation is correct or machine will only run but not

develop pressure)

2) Make sure the doors are closed.

3) Before moving the centreplate, ensure the ram is orientated so that the hoses and fittings will

not get caught on the machine.

4) On the control panel press and hold the DOWN button (See page 27 for button location if

unsure.) This will move the centreplate ram up as it is resting on four steel brackets (fig 3).

Stop pressing the button every couple of seconds and open the top door to check ram position

(fig 2). Always keeping an eye on hydraulic pipes and making sure they do not become

trapped or get cut.

WARNING! IF THE UP BUTTON IS PRESSED THE

HYDRAULIC HOSES WILL GET DAMAGED OR CUT OFF.

5) Continue to press the DOWN button until the ram has reached the end of its travel and is

approximately 5mm away from the mounting bracket.

6) When the ram base plate has reached the end of its travel and is approximately 5mm away

from the mounting bracket, activate the emergency stop button. (See page 27 for button

location if unsure.)

7) Disconnect the power running to the machine.

Fit M20 bolts up from the bottom (nuts on top) and tighten (fig 2). You may need to adjust the ram

position to line up the bolt holes. Ensure when tightened that the ram plate is in contact with the

mounting bracket.

**Remove 4 steel brackets from machine chamber (fig 3) **

Keep brackets with machine for future use.

You are now ready to start baling. Enjoy!

Note: Engineer should not enter machine at any

stage unless machine E-stop button is pressed and

machine is completely isolated at control panel and

at the power source. (IE. Plug and switch board).

To lower centreplate and ram for transport, carry out the following steps;

1) Ensure machine is plugged in and turned on. Also ensure the machine chamber is empty.

2) Place the four steel brackets into the slots in machine chamber (fig 4).

3) Close machine doors.

4) On the control panel press and hold the DOWN button (See page 21 for button location if

unsure.) This will move the centreplate down. Let it down until it is fully extended and the

centreplate is approx. 5mm above the four resting brackets (fig 5).

5) Carefully loosen the four M20 bolts on the ram plate. Loosen each bolt by half a turn in

sequence so that the ram and centreplate are gradually lowered rather than dropped onto the

brackets below.

6) When the ram plate has been disconnected from the mounting plate and is resting on the

brackets below, press the UP button. This will cause the ram to lower into the machine (fig 6).

7) Periodically open the doors and check the ram’s position.

8) WHEN THE RAM IS LOWERED SUFFICIENTLY SO THAT

THE HOSES CANNOT REACH ANY FURTHER, STOP! BE

CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE OR CUT THE HYDRAULIC

HOSES!

9) Disconnect the power running to the machine.

10) Open the machine doors and re-fit the 20mm bolts to the ram plate for safe keeping.

**Remove 4 steel brackets from machine chamber**

Keep brackets with machine for future use.

You are now ready to transport your machine.

Note: Engineer should not enter machine at any

stage unless machine E-stop button is pressed and

machine is completely isolated at control panel and

at the power source. (IE. Plug and switch board).

Operating Instructions

The following chapter explains the method of operating your waste baler with particular reference to:

A. PREPARING THE BALER PRIOR TO LOADING

B. LOADING THE BALER

C. TYING AND REMOVING THE BALE

A1. Preparation prior to loading (WIRE STRAP)

1) Ensure the packing plate is in the fully up position. Open the main door. Lay the wire in the 4 channelson the floor of the baler, then run them up the back of the machine and pass them out through theslots provided. Go to the back of the machine and pass the wires through the small slots at the topof the baler. This will hold the wire in position until you are ready to tie the bale off. (Fig.8 pg30)Please note: To open bottom door you must use the wheel (turnbuckle locking system). Thisensures that the main door is released slowly.

2) Place a full size piece of cardboard on to the floor of the baler; this will be the base of the bale. Tiethe loop end of the wire onto the hooks at the end of the floor guides just beneath the bottom door.(See Fig 8 pg30)

3) Now close main door and lock with turnbuckle system

N.B. We advise putting lubrication on the inside walls of your new machine prior to use, as this will make it easier to remove the bails. (WD40 or washing liquid are both adequate)

A2. Preparation prior to loading (NYLON STRAP)

a. Ensure the packing plate is in the fully up position. Open the main door. Feed the strapping throughthe holes in the top of the machine. Lay the strapping into the channels provided in the back and thefloor of the machine and tie a loop in the end of the strapping. (Fig.9 pg 31)Please note: To open bottom door you must use the wheel (turnbuckle locking system). Thisensures that the main door is released slowly.

b. Place a full size piece of cardboard on to the floor of the baler; this will be the base of the bale. Fixthe loops in the end of the strapping to the hooks provided in the base at the end of the floor guidesjust beneath the bottom door. (See Fig 9 pg 31)

c. Now close main door and lock with turnbuckle system

N.B. We advise putting lubrication on the inside walls of your new machine prior to use, as this will make it easier to remove the bales. (WD40 or washing liquid are both adequate)

B1. Loading of Baler Swing Type Top Door

Open Door and load material evenly into Chamber. (Fig 10 pg33).

When the chamber is fully loaded close and latch top door then press the “AUTO” button.AUTO – This button will automatically push the ram down and up once. This button has AUTOwritten above it see fig. (Fig 7 pg27)

Repeat these steps until the bale is ready to be tied off. You will know this by watching the indicatorslots on the front of the top door and the bale tie light on the control panel. When the yellow marker inthe centreplate can be seen through the slots on the door and stays there until the centreplate returnsto the up position the bale is ready to be tied off also when the bale tie light on the control panel isilluminated the bale is ready to be tied.

B2. Loading of Baler Guillotine Type Top Door

The Guillotine door should already be open. If it is not, press the emergency stop button on the controlpanel. This will turn off the power to the machine and cause the door magnet to release and open thedoor. Load material evenly into Chamber. (Fig 10 pg33).

When the chamber is fully loaded, make sure the power is on to the machine and the emergency stopis not active. Pull the door down until it is fully closed, the magnet will hold the door in this position. An“AUTO” cycle will start automatically 2 seconds after the door has been closed. Or the “AUTO” buttoncan be pressed to begin the automatic cycle.AUTO – This button will automatically push the ram down and up once. On completion of thiscycle the door magnet will release and the guillotine door will open. This button has AUTOwritten above it see fig. (Fig 7 pg27)

Repeat these steps until the bale is ready to be tied off. You will know this by watching the indicatorslots on the front of the top door and the bale tie light on the control panel. When the yellow marker inthe centreplate can be seen through the slots on the door and stays there until the centreplate returnsto the up position the bale is ready to be tied off also when the bale tie light on the control panel isilluminated the bale is ready to be tied. (Fig 13 pg36)

IMPORTANT – Always load Baling Chamber evenly

C1. Tying and Removing the Bale (wire strapping)

1 When the bale is complete i.e. the yellow indicator is shown in the top door when the centreplate is fully down and when the bale full light has come on the control panel. (Fig 13 pg36) OPEN THE MAIN DOOR FULLY. The centreplate shall remain on top of the bale compressing it throughout the tying process. (Fig 14 pg37)

2 Go to the back of the machine and pull the wires out of the top slot on the machine and pass it back through the long slots in the back of the machine guiding it through the wire guides on the bottom of the centreplate.

3 Return to the front of the machine and pull the end of the wires that you have just guided through the centreplate to remove any slack and tie this end of the wire to the other end of the wire (looped end) at the bottom of the machine. (Fig 15 pg37)

4. Once the bale has been tied, check main door is completely open (the bale willnot eject unless the door is fully open), and place pallet in front of machine incorrect position. (Fig 16 pg38)Press the “bale ejector” buttons (Fig 11 pg 34) on thecontrol panel simultaneously, this will cause the centreplate to return to the upposition and the ejector ram to push the bale out of the machine ‘ejecting thebale’. (Fig17 pg38)

Once the bale is ejected the bale eject ram will automatically return to the startposition. Close the main door and you are now ready to start making anotherbale.

If for some reason the baling process has been stopped, leaving the ejectorleg activated in the eject position, a safety switch is fitted to the ejector ramthat will prevent normal usage of the machine. (Fig 12b pg 36) To overcome thisyou have to restart the machine and press the bale ejector buttons. This willcause the machine to go through the baling process again resetting the ejectorram & leg in the process.

NB: Always tie the bale with the centreplate in the fully down position.

Always wear the protective gloves and goggles supplied.

C2. Tying and Removing the Bale (nylon strapping)

1 When the bale is complete i.e. the yellow indicator is shown in the top door when the centreplate is fully down and when the bale full light has come on the control panel. (Fig 13 pg36) OPEN THE MAIN DOOR FULLY. The centreplate shall remain on top of the bale compressing it throughout the tying process. (Fig 14 pg37)

2 Feed the strap puller through the spaces provided in the centreplate and push it to the very back of the machine. Hook the strapping onto the end of the strap puller and pull the strapping back through the spaces in the centreplate across the top of the bale until you can pull the strapping with your hand.

3 Remove the strap puller, and guide the strapping you have just pulled across the top of the bale, down the front of the bale until it reaches the looped end of the strap (fixed to the base). Make the length of the strapping about 300mm longer than it takes to reach the looped end and cut it.

4 Remove the looped end of the strapping from the base, feed the other end of the strapping through the loop and tie off. (Fig 15 pg37)

Once the bale has been tied, check main door is completely open (the bale willnot eject unless the door is fully open), and place pallet in front of machine incorrect position. (Fig 16 pg38)Press the “bale ejector” buttons (Fig 12 pg 35) on thecontrol panel simultaneously, this will cause the centreplate to return to the upposition and the ejector ram to push the bale out of the machine ‘ejecting thebale’. (Fig17 pg38)

Once the bale is ejected the bale eject ram will automatically return to the startposition. Close the main door and you are now ready to start making anotherbale.

If for some reason the baling process has been stopped, leaving the ejector legactivated in the eject position, a safety switch is fitted to the ejector ram that willprevent normal usage of the machine. (Fig 12b pg 36) To overcome this you haveto restart the machine and press the bale ejector buttons. This will cause themachine to go through the baling process again resetting the ejector ram & legin the process.

personnel or their authorised dealers are allowed to adjust this

valve and will replace the seal if such work has to be done.

Tampering with this seal may void your warranty.

Note – Use only genuine LSM spare parts.
