If possible lower wings to field position if the inner wing lift
must be removed for repair or replacement.
This machine uses a hydraulic lock up valve as a safety devise to
lock wings in transport position. Removing wing lift
leaves machine without a safety lock. If inner wing
lift
be removed with wings in folded position, install a safety
chain between each wing frame and main frame to prevent wings
from falling down. Always install a safety chain on both wings
even if only one cylinder is removed.
CAUTION IF WING LIFT
REMOVED WHEN WINGS ARE FOLDED INTO TRANSPORT POSITION, ALWAYS INSTALL A
SAFETY CHAIN BETWEEN EACH
FRAME AND
FRAME TO PREVENT WINGS FROM FALLING. IF WINGS FELL
SERIOUS INJURY OR
COULD OCCUR
TO
NEARBY AND MACHINE WOULD BE DAMAGED SEVERLY.
