20 Operators Manual
The scraper is intended to clear
dirt from blocking between
adjacent DD rings. If adjustment
to the scrapers is required ensure that the
scraper cannot contact the spacer even
under load. Regularly inspect the spacers for
signs of wear and adjust any scrapers to
ensure no contact can be made.
5.4 Aqueel Rolls
Maintenance of Aqueel rollers is limited to
seasonal greasing of the bearings to ensure
grease is present, and regular inspection to
ensure the assemblies are tight, and any
stones trapping between wheel elements are
removed. Do not over-grease sealed
bearings otherwise seal damage will occur.
Additionally, regularly check roll elements for
abrasion, wear and cutting. Replace as
necessary. If in doubt about replacing wheels,
consult TILLSO or your local TILLSO dealer
for guidance.
5.5 Pitch Control Circuit - Purging & re-setting
If at any time the circuit needs to be purged of
air, or reset, use the following procedure.
Ensure the machine is in working position,
unfolded in full ground contact (not tilted
rearwards).
Set the system taps as the following
illustration, remembering to initially turn any
taps off which need to remain off.
In this setting, work the tilt circuit pressuring
either side in turn, holding for a few seconds
under pressure. Alternately pressure either
side at least 3 times.
NOTE:
when lowering back into ground
contact
drive forwards slowly
to minimise
damage to the tines.
Finally finish this cycling with the machine
fully pressured rearwards, tilted back, then
set taps to the fold configuration:
In this setting the pitch control is disabled.
The machine can be operated without the
pitch control, manually adjusting for pitch
according to conditions. It can also be folded
and unfolded.
5.6 Preparation for Storage
If you need to store the machine for a longer
period, observe the following points:
• Park the machine undercover if possible.
• Protect the roll / other elements against rust.
If you need to spray the implements with oil,
use light biologically degradable oils, e.g.
rape oil.
Cover any rubber or p/u sections
before using oil sprays. These
sections must not be oiled.
Remove any traces of oil with a suitable
cleaning agent.
5.6 Operator Support

dealer, or TILLSO. In order to enable your
dealer to deal with problems as quickly as
possible, it helps if you can provide them with
the following data. Always state the:
• Customer Number
