9.2 Tine arms operation
Prior to work commencement the all six folding tine arms should be unfolded and locked in
working position. As the first, free the arm inserted in a locking socket (transport lock)
located on the frame near the rotor.
Follow the steps below to prepare the raking assembly to work:
a)
Remove the protective sleeves from the raking tines. The protective sleeves are made
of bright warning yellow tarpaulin. Their function is to minimalize stabbing risk by
preventing direct contact of a person standing nearby with sharp tines of the raking
arms. Take special care when folding and unfolding of the arms and stay clear of the
movement zone of the arm. Be especially cautious when near the tines in the upper,
transport position. Put the tarpaulin over the tines pointing upwards immediately after
folding the arms into the transport position.
b)
Free the arm inserted in the transport lock to enable movement of the rotor. In order
to do that, pull the safety linch pin out and remove the pin from the socket of the
transport lock. Then unfold that arm and reuse the same pin and the linch pin to lock
the folding part of the arm in the working position.
Do not power up the machine if any of the arms remains folded or if the safety
barriers are not lowered into the working possition. Serious damage will occur
when not applying to this guideline. Carry out the safety check up to ensure
that the machine can be started safely.
