Optional Equipment Assembly
Linear Actuator
CAUTION
!
To avoid minor or moderate injury:
•
Make sure electrical wiring is supported in such a way that
it will not make contact with trash, lift mechanism, rotating
discs, pinch points, vehicle rotating components, vehicle hot
exhaust, etc.
•
Extending and retracting actuator creates pinch point
hazards. Keep fingers, hands, and all extremities clear of all
moving parts when operating toggle switch (G).
1.
Remove one of two hair pin clips (#2) from both hitch
pins (#3). Remove hitch pins.
2. Attach lower end of linear actuator (#3) to the front
mounting lug (B) with hitch pin (#2). Secure in place
with hair pin clip (#1).
3. Install hand controller as follows:
a. Plug connector (E) into connector (F).
b. Wrap electrical wiring around one of the tie down
straps and along the hitch frame as shown in
Figure 1-5 on page 11.
c. Attach black wire alligator clip (C) to the negative
(-) battery post.
d. Attach white wire alligator clip (D) to the positive
(+) battery post.
Refer to Figure 1-5 on page 11:
4. Operate toggle switch (G) to move upper clevis end
of actuator until it aligns with the rear axle adjusting
lug hole (A).
5. Attach upper end of Linear Actuator (#3) to the rear
axle adjusting lug hole with hitch pin (#2) and secure
with hair pin clip (#1).
6. Remove hand controller (#4) and store in a dry
location until ready to use.
Rear Packer
1.
Attach rear packer frame (#2) to disc frame (#1) as
shown with 1/2"-13 x 1 GR5 cap screws (#3) and hex
flange locknut (#4). Draw locknut up snug and then
back-off 1/4 turn. Roller frame should pivot about the
1/2" bolts freely.
2. Lower disc harrow to the ground and by lifting at the
handle, rotate rear packer (#2) up over the disc frame
until it rest on its supports (#A).
NOTE:
Ties (#5) may be used to secure electrical
wiring. If ties are used, attach them loosely or out of
material that can be removed easily to allow easy
removal of electrical components for dry storage.
