7.1 SETTING LIFTING / LOWERING ORDER
The Vibra-Sandmaster has a multi-tier lifting system (Fig.10).
The 1
st
part is located near the towing hook of the machine and makes it possible to lift the front of the
machine (the Verti-Quake).
The 2
nd
part is located at the rear of the machine and operates the wheel set which makes it possible
to lift the filling coulter/hopper section.
When starting machine operation, it is important that the Verti-Quake is lowered into the ground first
so that it can pre-cut the grooves, after which the vibrating filling coulters follow.
The lowering order and speed can be set by rotating the chokes 5 (rear) and 6 (front).
Clockwise = slower Anti-clockwise = faster.
By opening up the choke at the front 6 further than the rear 5, the front will lower / lift sooner.
The settings differ per circumstance and the right settings need to be found by trial and error.
Once the correct settings have been found, set the choke by means of the setscrew on the site of the
adjustment button.
!! WARNING! BE CAREFUL !!
IF THE CHOKES ARE OPENED TOO FAR, THE MACHINE CAN LOWER VERY QUICKLY,
CREATING AN UNSAFE SITUATION !!
