PREPARATION AND SETUP
NOTE:
Right and left as illustrated above and referenced from this point on, is determined by facing the same direction the toolbar will travel while in
use.
1. CENTER SECTION.
A solid, heavy-duty center section provides a robust toolbar foundation.
2. WINGS.
Provide the toolbar with versatility for easier maneuverability around objects and travel.
3. THREE POINT HITCH.
Securely welded to the 5” x 7” hitch bar, the three point hitch comes in two options: “CAT 3” (shown above) accommo-
dates ASAE category 3 and 3N quick couplers. The “CAT 4” option will accommodate ASAE category 4 and 4N quick couplers.
4. WING RESTS.
180 degree fold, welded on wing rests for most toolbars. Longer 170 degree fold, welded on rests for toolbars used in certain
larger applications. For 115 ° and 135 °, adjustable wing rests are available as a toolbar accessory.
5. BAR STANDS.
Support the frontal weight of the toolbar for storage and maintenance.
6. INTERNAL CYLINDER ASSEMBLY.
Orthman developed the internal fold cylinder many years ago and it continues to be a trademark
feature of our toolbars.
7. WING LEVEL BOLT.
This bolt serves as the down-stop for the wing and can be fine-tuned to accurately level the bar when unfolded.
8. SAFETY LIGHTS AND SMV.
The safety light and SMV package are boxed up and will need to be assembled prior to use of the toolbar.
9. MANUAL STORAGE TUBE.
A place to safely store this manual, and will also house the manual for any row unit that is on the toolbar if you
purchased a full machine.
10. RIGID WING LOCK PIN.
Use this pin to lock down the toolbar to a rigid machine. When not in use, storage for these pins are at the end of
the center section near the hinge pin.
11. TOOLBAR WING HINGE.
Orthman’s own wing hinge design is built to allow the center section to couple with the wings while not giving
up strength and versatility.
12. 5” x 7” HITCH.
The 5” x 7” hitch bar is utilized on the
Vertical Fold Tillage Toolbar
to allow for row unit mounting across the center section of the
toolbar.
13. HITCH CLAMP.
Securely connects the the 5” x 7” hitch bar to the 7” x 7” toolbar.
