Hopper Full Switch
Purpose
The hopper fill switch is used to sound a buzzer when
the hopper is at or near full capacity.
Location
The hopper full switch is located inside the hopper
asm., above the switch motor (Figure 191).
How It Works
With the key ON and PTO switch ON, the hopper full
switch receives battery voltage from the PTO switch.
When the hopper is at or near capacity, the hopper full
switch paddle will contact hopper contents and close
the buzzer circuit.
Testing
1. Disconnect the harness connection from the hopper
tilt switch (Figure 192).
2. Use a multi-meter, set to the Ohm or Continuity
setting, check the continuity between the two
terminals:
Paddle Straight Out – The two terminals should NOT
have continuity, OPEN
Paddle Pushed to Either Side – The two terminals
should have continuity, CLOSED
