AXR-H

Folding
Move the wheel cylinders to the fully extended position before folding up the side
sections into the transport position. This ensures that the mechanical transport
lock of the wheel frame is able to fall down and lock the wheel frame into place.
Secure to disengage the locks on the discgang before folding up the
implement.
After the side wings and the packer roller have been folded up, lower the AXR-H so
that the transport lock of the wheel suspension locks firmly and securely.

Make sure that all transport locks are securely fastened before transporting the
implement on public roads.
Levelling Position
In the standard levelling position, the AXR-H must be adjusted to operate in a per-
fectly level and horizontal position, both side-to-side and front-to-rear. The AXR-H
must lie straight across, i.e., perpendicular (90
) to the line of travel of the tractor.
It must also be level front-to-rear or in a parallel direction, i.e., the lift arms on the
tractor hitch should be parallel to the ground. It is important to maintain this level-
ling position to obtain level and uniform field finishing.
The discs can be angled according to need. For heavy work, set the disc gangs at a
larger angle, so that deeper cut and penetration is achieved throughout the full ex-
tent of the cutting width.
In the levelling position, adjust the gangs in the very front and in the very back to
have the same angle. There are four notches on the gang pivots which indicate the
angle of the disc gangs. Count the notches moving from (A) towards (B), and set
the pivots at the same notch position in order to set the same angle on the gangs.

nut on the turnbuckle.
