8) Fitting tine arms and tines
Before fitting tine arms and tines fold the intermediate and the outer rotors in working
position.
Fit the tine arms (B) as shown in figure 7.
1 = self-locking screw M 12 x 30
2 = self-locking nut M 12 (tighten to a torque of 12 daNm (88 ft.lbs).
Fit the tines (F) on the tine arms (B) in such a way that the pressure from the tines closes the spiral (the tines are
facing in the direction of rotation of the rotors) (fig. 8).
Position the deflectors (D). Fit the screws (A), position washers (C), then tighten the self-locking nuts (E)
(fig. 8) to a torque of 16 daNm (120 ft.lbs).
During the first few hours of work, make frequent checks of tine nut and bolt tightness. If
necessary, retighten to 16 daNm (120 ft.lbs) to avoid the possibility of loss or breakage.
6) Fitting reflectors (fig. 5)
Attach reflector support (1) to central tubing (2) on each
side of the machine by means of 1 hexagon screw (3)
(M 12 x 40), 1 self-locking screw (5) (M 12 x 40) and
1 spacer (7), as shown in fig. 5.
Next stick red reflectors (8) and white reflectors (9) to
the end of supports (1).
7) Fitting rear shield (photo 6)
Attach rear shield (T) to reflector supports (1) using 4
hexagon screws (V) (M 8 x 20), 4 plain washers
(diameter 9 x 18 x 1,5) and 4 self-locking nuts (M 8).
Also attach to connecting frame (P) using 1 hexagon
screw (W) (M 8 x 12) and 1 lock washer (M 8).
