TRAILED ROTARY TEDDER
OPERATOR’S MANUAL
❑
tilt the tedder with the tilt cylinder until the tilt cylinder is locked,
❑
if necessary, adjust the angle with the height of the H beam (
) so that the distance between
the fingers and the ground is approximately 10 mm.
The tedder is equipped with a tilt cylinder with a tilt limiting mechanism. The mechanism is integrated
with the driving systems of the machine allowing to set the appropriate working angle of the machine.
Two basic tedder angles are available I -
17°
and II -
20°
. Angle adjustment must
be carried out by performing the following actions:
a. unscrew the locking bolt,
b. unlock the cotter pin and loosen the absorber leg axle bolt,
c. rotate the eccentric bolt to the selected position (I or II),
d. insert the locking bolt into the hole corresponding to the selected tedder tilt position and
tighten.
e. tighten and secure the absorber leg axle bolt using the cotter pin.

Adjusting the working angle of the tedder wheel systems
WARNING!
After loosening the absorber leg bolt and removing the locking bolt, the entire
weight of the machine is transferred to the eccentric bolt. Special care must be
taken when adjusting the angle of the wheel system, as there is a risk of the key
being torn out and the machine falling down. A particular danger can occur when
adjusting the central drive systems underneath the main frame of the tedder,
which bear the heaviest loads.
