Operation

Swathing

Requirements

After setting the machine as described in chapter »Preparations on
the field« page 54, you can start swathing.

The machine is set correctly as follows:

•

Swath former adjusted.

•

Tine supports are attached and secured.

•

Rotor securing device on the rotor released.

•

Tractor's lower links are set to floating position.

•

Machine in work position.

Start work as follows:

Switch on the tractor.

Open the ball valve.

Check that there is nobody in the working area of the machine.

Switch on the PTO shaft at a low engine speed.

Slowly increase the speed. Do not exceed the maximum speed of
540 rpm.

Select a driving speed at which the crop is picked up cleanly and
completely.

Start swathing at the edge of the field and at headlands to avoid
subsequently driving over the crop.

The optimal speed of the PTO shaft is around 350 - 450 rpm.

No persons in the working area

Ensure that no persons are present in the slewing and working
area of the machine. Persons could be caught by the machine
within this area. This could result in fatal injury.
