7 FOLDING-IN AND -OUT
7.1 Folding-in and -out the lateral sections
7.1.1 Folding-in the lateral sections
For transport the lateral sections must be folded-in. The lateral sections may
be folded-in and -out only, when the implement is fitted to the tractor.
The hydraulic rams (K1) of the folding device must be connected to a sepa-
rate double acting tractor spool valve.
The implement will be folded-in as follows:
-
Before folding-in, lift the implement completely.
- By means of setting the spool valve to „folding position“ = 1st pressure po-
sition, the lateral sections will be folded-in until their end stops. Now the
folding device (K2) locks automatically.
- Check, whether the hooks (K3) and (K4) of the folding device are locked
correctly and whether the hydraulic ram (K5) is opened completely.
- Lock tractor spool valve to avoid an unintentional folding-out of the lateral
sections.
- For driving on public roads, the lighting equipment with warning boards
must be fitted. See section „ Driving on public roads“!
