To adjust bogie axle height, proceed as follows :
- Raise the rotors with the tractor hydraulics until axles (Y) are butting against the pawls (R) (photo 6, page 12).
- Remove linch pin (8) and pull wheel axles (9) away from the machine to free pins (5) (fig. 46)
- Position wheel axles (9) at the desired height and fully engage pins (5) in the corresponding vertical sector (12)
hole (fig. 46).
- Secure wheel axles (9) by reinserting linch pins (8) in place (fig. 46).
Always ensure that both bogie axles (right and left side) are adjusted to the same height.
1. BOGIE AXLE KIT (2 x No 113 6180) ) (standard equipment on GA 7301 USA)
This equipment is recommended for improved floatation when operating on irregular grounds. It helps stabilising
the machine at high speed thereby reducing the load placed on structural components.
To attach bogie axle, proceed as follows :
- First remove both wheels (F) then both vertical
sectors (A) both levers (B) and both pins (E) from
the standard wheel column support (10) (photo
45).
- Fit new pins (5) supplied with the kit onto the
machine's vertical sector supports (3) using plain
washers (2) (diameter 13 x 30 x 4) and self-locking
nuts (1) (M 12) (fig. 46).
- Replace standard grease zerks (G) (photo 45) by
2 curved grease zerks (4) (fig. 46).
- Install pre-assembled left and right (9) wheel axles
onto vertical sector supports (3) and secure with
cotter pins (6) (diameter 8 x 63) (fig. 46).
- Install linch pin (8) (diameter 10 x 60) and attach to
cotter pins (6) with PVC cords (7) (fig. 46).
- To finish the job, fit both standard wheels (F) (photo
45) onto axle spindles (11) (fig. 46) respecting their
original position. Do not forget to pack wheel caps
and the space between both bearings located inside
the rims with grease.
