Adjusting tedding angle with wheel position adjustment
IMPORTANT:
In order to switch transport positions of trailed tedder's (middle) drive wheels
lift the machine up by means of a lifting device as well as ropes or chains
with load greater than the tedder's total weight provided on its data plate.
WARNING!
When performing adjustment works under the lifted machine, it must be
protected against falling, if ropes, chains are torn or the lifting device is
damaged.
In
Fig. 21
recommended (
a
) and not recommended (
b
) working positions are provided.
Setting drive wheel axis closer to the tine being near the ground (
Fig. 21a
) results in better ground
following and prevents it from being driven into the ground. Too far a setting of wheel axis from
the tine in operating position shall cause less effective following of any ground unevenness
(
Fig. 21b
) though results in reducing transport position.

5.6. Tedder clogging and jams
When operating the tedder pay attention to variable conditions on field, which may influence
the tedder clogging and jams, such as: terrain unevenness, height and density of grass as well as
other objects in the grass (stones, branches, piles of soil). In order to avoid clogging and jams,
operating speed should be adjusted to the mentioned conditions.
