Unfolding the Drill
Negative Tongue Weight Hazard:
This drill has a negative tongue weight when unfolded and
raised. Be certain that the drill is hitched securely to your
tractor drawbar and be certain the hitch safety chain is
securely attached to the drill hitch and tractor before raising
or unfolding the drill!
1.
Unfolding the drill is best achieved on level ground
with the tractor transmission in neutral.
2.
Be aware of the clearance requirements of the
unfolding drill. Allow plenty of room to unfold and DO
NOT allow anyone in the area of the drill when
unfolding.
Refer to Figure 20 and Figure 21.
3.
Remove pin from pull-bar transport lock.
4.
Slowly unfold the drill using the hydraulic cylinders.
For the first time, watch to be sure the hydraulic
hoses do not get pinched or kinked. Serious damage
could occur if the drill is unfolded carelessly.
5.
Apply hydraulic pressure to the raising and lowering
system. Lowering the drill may be required to free up
the transport lock pins in the vertical tubes for
removal. Place pins into storage position.
