Abbriata M50 Quick Start Guide

Figure 20 pickup in down position

Gauge wheel

The baler uses a steel gauge wheel to keep the tines from going too low. It rides along the ground and causes the

pickup and gathering wheels to raise up and then go back down as you pass over a hump in the ground.

It is stored for transport on top of the baler and the moved to the bale position as shown.

Now that the gathering wheels and the gauge wheel are installed, attach the PTO and run the machine with the

tractor at an idle. Keeping well clear of the machine, verify that the pickup tines are turning so that they clear

the floor by about 1" to 1-1/2". If this is not the case make an adjustment to the angle of the draw bar on the

baler at one of the 2 places. Be sure the machine is supported during adjustment. Use the jack stand or a lift

point to keep the baler from falling forward during adjustment of the hitch angles.

Note that the gauge wheel will not allow the pickup tines closer than 20 mm (3/4") once it contacts the floor.
