Driving and operating 

Proper operation is important in order to get optimal performance from your 
drum. This applies not only to working in the field but also in terms of safety. 
It  is  therefore  crucial  that  you  have  thoroughly read the  safety precautions 
that cover the machine. 
 

Unfolding and folding 

 

Unfolding and folding are conducted with the tractor in park. 
 

 

 
 

Unfolding 

 

Fig. 9

The side section is lifted up by 
the carriers (A) with the tilt 
cylinder (marked: White). 

 
 

 

 

 

Fig. 10

The  cylinders  for  unfolding 
and  folding  (marked:  Red)  are 
activated and the side sections 
are completely folded. 

3

 

The tilt cylinders are activated 
and  the  drum  is  lowered  to 
the ground. 

4

 

The  cylinders  for  unfolding 
and  folding  (marked:  Red)  are 
set in the float position. 

 

 
 

 

Before the drum is started, the weight transfer must be adjusted correctly (see “Hy-
draulic Weight Transmission Adjustment”).
