No adjustments or similar action is necessary before starting to use the
Compact. The roller is drawn by the pickup-hitch of the tractor; which should
be about 40 cm above the ground.
Remember to secure the draw bolt with a split pin or similar device.
Connect the hydraulic hose (marked white) to a single-acting valve. Connect the
other two hoses (marked red) to a double-acting valve.
All the hoses are fitted with 1/2" connectors. If the tractor is not equipped for these,
your dealer can help. A maximum pump pressure of 160 bar is required.
Defective hoses must be repaired or replaced immediately. A broken hose can in bad
cases cause personal injury or mechanical damage to the roller.
All operation must take place from the driver's seat and there must be no-one else
in the vicinity of the machine. The change from transport to operational mode, and
vice versa, must be made while stationary on more or less level ground, with the
tractor almost idling. To unfold, operate first the single- acting valve, so that the
side sections are lifted clear oftheir transport bearings; use the double-acting
valve to unfold the side sections completely. Then lower the pressure from the
single-acting valve, so that the roller tilts down to the ground. It is advantageous to
to allow the valves to float freely during rolling, if possible.
To raise the roller, apply the pressure first with the double-acting valve, so that the
long cylinder across the roller is completely compressed. Then lift the roller
completely vertical with the single-acting valve. Fold the side sections in by means
of the double-acting valve. Lastly, lower them into their transport bearings using the
single-acting valve.
The roller must be raised only for transport. It is not necessary to raise it when
tuming. It can also run backwards in the operating.position.
Recommended speed of travel:
4-5 mph. Move slowly over stony ground. Tighten
all
the screws,
and also
buh nuts,
after the first working day.
Chassis - 3 lubrication points - lubricate daily.
Roller bearings - 6 units - lubricate every 50 operating hours. Lubricate the
wheel bearings once per season.
Adjust the wheel bearings once a year, following the instructions for replace- ment
of bearings, points 1, 2, 11, 12 and 13.
