Got a Vermeer 605 K, got a monitor and checked out the tie system and monitor seems ok.

I am trying to hook up a backup system for the tying system. I found where the connection is for the tying motor, but I guess I am not wiring it right. I got a switch that has 3 prongs on it. The middle prong is power coming in from the battery, the upper prong is hot when turn switch up and bottom prong is hot when switch is turn down and when switch is in the middle position nothing is hot. But I can not get it to work the tie motor on the baler

Shouldn�t the wires (2) going to the tie motor just have one hot at a time one be hot to make arms extend then the other wire be hot when arms are being retracted?

I checked ground from tractor to baler etc and everything seems good, even ran another wire from the tie motor to the tractor to make sure it was grounded ok.
Like I said it works with the monitor just want a backup system in case monitor goes out or someone wants to borrow my baler, I figure it be easier hooking up a small switch then mounting the whole monitor in some else�s tractor for them to borrow it a day or so.
Thanks
JM

The DPDT switch also needs to be center-off, and should be momentary contact (spring-loaded) for the 2 on positions.

I think you need a double pole, double throw switch. It has 6 prongs. Three on each side. The middle prong should be positive. The center prong on the other side should be the ground. By moving the handle, you connect both the ground and the positive for each direction.

You are correct it takes a double pull, double throw switch. You can get the manual tie switch from your Vermeer dealer and it will work. You need to make a cross over with the wires. Connect poles 1 and 6 to one side of the motor, connect 3 and 4 to the other motor wire. Hot and ground will go to poles 2 and 5.

I have a Hesston 5800 with electric tie. I just got it and haven't tried it out yet, but the guy I got it from told me that both wires had to switch. In other words when one is hot, the other needs to be ground. Then the wires reverse for the other direction. So (in my case) one direction the red is hot and the white is ground, other direction the red is ground and the white is hot. Both wires need to be switched. Hope that helps you out.
