In case the machine is connected to the tractor during repair and maintenance you
should make sure that:
The PTO is disconnected
The tractor engine is stopped
The ignition key is removed
The tractor cannot move
and
When the machine is raised, the link arms must always be secured by support
chains.
Be careful when using high pressure cleaners, particularly near bearings and seals.
MACHINE SAFETY
At Kongskilde Industries A/S all revolving parts are balanced by means of a special
machine with electronic sensors. If it turns out that a part still has an unbalance,
small counterweights should be mounted.
As the discs run at up to 3000 RPM, even the slightest unbalance will cause
vibrations which may lead to fatigue fractures.
If the vibrations and/or the noise of the machine increase considerably during the
operation, stop working immediately. Do not continue the work until the fault has
been corrected.
When replacing blades, both blades on the disc in question must be replaced as not
to create an unbalance.
During the season check daily that no blades, carriers or bolts are missing. If any of
these are missing, mount new parts immediately.
Clean caps of earth and grass regularly.
You should also check and “air” the friction clutch regularly to ensure it does not rust.
