OPERATING WITHOUT ELECTRONICS

Your Twin-Flex merger is designed to operational without any electronics. In the event that an electrical
issue occurs simply unplug the main battery harness between the merger and the tractor. Both belts

will default to the right. The merger will still have flotation but it will not be active floatation with the Soft

shoe. To manually adjust the floatation without electronics:

With the PTO on and the heads in the working position remove the back left shield on the mergers
main frame to access the Soft shoe manifold block.

Pushing in on valve A will add pressure to the accumulator.
Using a key ring to pull on valve B will remove pressure from the accumulator.

Reinstall the shield before beginning
operation.
