The two available goose-neck options have shock-absorbers to guaranty an uniform job,
minimizing the impact force transference to the machine structure and the tractor (see figure 10).
IMPORTANT! Do not use the Adjustable Goose-neck for product loads above
5,000Kg.
Fixed Goose-neck
: firstly, mount the gear drive system and then the tractor power
transmission (PTO) both onto the tractor power hook-up.
Adjustable Goose-neck
: here the gear drive system is mounted onto the tractor power
hook-up and the PTO onto the machine (figure 11).
ATTENTION!
It is critical that the dimensions of “A” and “B” (figure 12) be equivalent, being
that :
A
= the distance between the goose-neck pivot point and the machine wheel axle;
B
=
center of the tractor rear wheel axle.
the distance between the goose-neck pivot point and the
6.3 - Goose-neck mounting
The Hércules 10000/Stainless offers two goose-neck options, allowing for the needs of job
diversities.
The
Fixed Goose-neck
, shown on figure 10, is used in the
distribution of limestone,
in
irregular terrain.
In the application of products the
Adjustable Goose-neck
is used, allowing for the
implement to follow the tractor in its course around curves, thus avoiding product built-up. This
option should be used on leveled terrain.
