5. Is there danger of flying objects (e.g., golf balls) that distract the attention of the driver? If so,
the Verti-Drain
®
2519 CANNOT be used.
6. Is there danger of sinking / sliding away? If so, postpone using the Verti-Drain
®
2519.
7. If the soil is frozen or very wet, postpone the activities until conditions improve.
8. If the soil is very compressed, use shorter pins or adjust the working depth.
9. Do NOT make sharp curves when the machine touches the ground.
9.2 Working speed
The maximum safe working speed of the machine is approx. 4.53 km/h (2.81 mph). However, the user
should check which speed is optimal to achieve the required result per individual situation and soil
treatment.
The driving speed and the rpm of the PTO determine the distance between the holes in the driving
direction. If the client requires a small distance between the holes, you have to drive slower which
depends on the possibility to reduce the tractor speed.
Table 1 shows the appropriate driving speed to obtain the required distance between the holes at
maximum 540 rpm of the PTO.
If you expect hard objects, you must reduce the speed.
The pin holders can start floating in case of using heavier pins, other applications or
maximum pin angle. Reduce the rpm
before
the pin holders are forced upwards and
damage the machine.
If the Verti-Drain is incorrectly attached to the tractor, the different PTO angles can
cause vibrations in the driveline of the machine. These vibrations can damage the
machine and distort the holes in the ground. See Chapters 6 and 7 for the correct
settings.
If the PTO is shortened incorrectly or if another tractor is used, the gearbox may be
overloaded and cause damage.
