Picture 3. Crossbar mounted to the tractor’s lower links.
Mount all the ropes and cables coming to the cab. The top link is fastened to the lug. The length of
the top link is adjusted by keeping the lid of the machine in a horizontal position when using the
machine.
The hose of the marker changer is connected to the single acting hydraulic take off of the tractor’s
hydraulic system. The control valve must then be in the ‘lowering’ position.
During transport the side limiters of the tractor’s lower links are adjusted to a fixed position in order
to prevent lateral swing. In working position the side limiters must be slack.
During the first lifts make sure that the mudguards or other parts of the tractor do not damage the
drill.
5. MARKERS
5.1 General description
Hydraulic middle markers considerably facilitate the sowing. The main components of the marker
equipment are a changer and markers. The changer is operated hydraulically. Normally the changer
cylinder is to be connected to the tractor’s single acting outlet. The changer is operated
semiautomatically. It is possible to connect the changer cylinder in parallel with the tractor’s own
lifting cylinder. Then the hydraulic changer can be operated automatically and the changer operates
every time the machine is lifted.
The changer lifts the markers by means of bars. The markers can be locked in transport position.
During transport the markers can be locked to vertical position (picture 4).
