1. INTRODUCTION
another person by accident turns the revolving parts while you are still working with
them.
Never try to clean, grease or adjust the machine before the PTO has been
disengaged, the tractor engine has stopped and the parking brake been activated.
GRINDING
When grinding always follow this procedure:
- Stop the tractor engine.
- Activate the parking brake.
- Wait until all moving parts have stopped.
Unfortunately it is necessary to remove some of the guards to change the direction of
rotation of the rotor when grinding the blades. As there are chain and belt
transmissions your hands may be injured if the revolving parts have not stopped
before the guards are removed.
Grinding is performed according to the following procedure:
1. Check if the grindstone is undamaged and if the device is able to move back
and forth easily.
2. Lower the guard behind the grinding device to give access to the blade cylinder.
3. Adjust the stone and guard the grinding device again.
4. Remove the guard above the blade cylinder transmission and change the
direction of rotation of the rotor.
5. Fasten the guard again and check that there are no persons near the machine.
6. Start the tractor again and keep the rpm close to idling.
7. Perform the grinding carefully.
Always use safety glasses when grinding as small particles from the grindstone might
hit you.
When grinding has finished, stop the tractor engine, change the direction of rotation
and fasten all guards.
REMEMBER:
Only grind with all guards closed!
MAINTENANCE
After approx.
2
days of operation all bolts must be re-tightened, especially the blade
bolts of the blade cylinder.
Always make sure that the used spare parts are tightened to the correct torque.
Hydraulic hoses must be checked by an expert before use, and after that minimum
once a year. If necessary, they must be replaced. The working life of hydraulic hoses
should not exceed 6 years, including maximum 2 years of storage.
