5.7 Feeler
wheels
(depending on equipment provided)
The fixed feeler wheels prevent the
Centaur
from shaking during unfavourable working
conditions.
CAUTION
Set the
Centaur
's depth guidance
so that the lower links of the tractor
keep the machine at the required
height and bear the load.
The feeler wheels can touch the
ground but must not carry the weight
of the machine. They are not intended
to be load-bearing elements.
Fig. 21
CAUTION
If the feeler wheels are overloaded, the guarantee is
invalidated.
When cornering and on headlands, the machine is to be
lifted
using the tractor's lower links.
5.8 Support
wheels
The front steerable support wheels guide the
Centaur
at the set working depth. The
steerable design enables light cornering. The
support wheels are designed for a load that has
the mass of the machine so that the lower links
of the tractor can be moved in the float position.
Fig. 22
If the slippage on the tractor rear wheels is too high, we recommend
that you transfer some of the weight from the
Centaur
to the
tractor by slightly raising the lower links.
