8.3 Assembly of the lattice wheels
Figure 8.3
For the subsequent installation of the lattice wheel set, the hitch hubs (Fig.8.3, item 5) must first be
mounted on both sides of the self-propelled implement.
•
Raise the rear part of the self-propelled implement with appropriate tools until the drive wheels
are unloaded and free to move. The lifted machine is supported by a hard base - e.g. Squared
timbers - to be secured in such a way that unintentional falling is prevented.
•
Loosen the wheel nuts on both sides, remove the drive wheels and remove the existing wheel
bolts from the wheel hubs. These are replaced by the supplied wheel bolts M12 x 50.
•
First insert the drive wheel and then the supplied attachment hub of the mesh wheel onto the
existing wheel hub. Between the drive wheel and the attachment hub, the Limes rings (conical
washers) must be inserted so that the drive wheel is firmly centered on the wheel hub. The drive
hub and the attachment wheel are firmly screwed in using the stoppers provided. Here, the stop
nut is inserted into the 19`er nut and guided by means of a long extension through the mounting
hub to the wheel bolt.
•
The lattice wheels are mounted on soft ground immediately before use. Since the grids are larger
in diameter than the drive wheels, the machine or the drive wheels must be on a solid surface,
for. stand a wooden block.
•
The sprocket wheel is put on the hub and fixed by the driving plate (Fig.8.3; Pos.3).
•
Finally, secure the mesh wheel and drive plate with the thumbscrew (Fig.8.3; In order to avoid
unintentional loosening of the thumbscrew, there should be a spring washer (Fig.8.3; Pos.2) in
front of the thumbscrew.
