Abstract
An agricultural baler includes a hydraulic circuit with a first hydraulic cylinder connected between the first end of the first axle and the chassis, and a second hydraulic cylinder connected between the second end of the first axle and the chassis. At least one sensor senses a position of the chassis relative to the first axle. An electrical processing circuit is coupled with the hydraulic circuit and the at least one sensor. The electrical processing circuit controls operation of the hydraulic circuit, and includes an operator input device for selectively: 1) raising the chassis of the baler relative to the first axle, 2) lowering the chassis of the baler relative to the first axle, or 3) automatically returning the chassis of the baler to a predetermined operating height relative to the first axle, dependent upon an output signal from the at least one sensor.
