FOLDING AND UNFOLDING OF THE MACHINE
The hydraulics for the folding and unfolding must be connected to the double-action control unit.
The operator must ensure that during folding and unfolding of the side frames, no person or animal is
within their reach (i.e. at the place of their impact) or vicinity.
Perform folding and unfolding on flat and solid surfaces or laterally to the slope with the fully open
control unit.
Execute the folding or unfolding only with a machine that is raised on the axle with the side rollers in the
recessed position, i.e. their piston-rods should be drawn in.
Remove stuck soil from folding points, soil may impair function and cause damage to the mechanics.
During folding or unfolding, check the side frames and have them continuously fold into the end position
to the stoppers.
CAUTION!!! The machine must be lifted on the axle, when the machine is folded and
unfolded. Otherwise, the machine may get damaged.
