Cardan shaft drive
The pickup is driven by a cardan shaft.
It is essential to protect the drive shaft with a chain
(K) secure against turning.
If the combine is equipped with a swivel blade,
check the overlap when it is swung out.
Remove and read the special instructions for car-
dan shafts before commissioning!
Grease the shaft profile of the cardan shaft connec-
tion once a year.
Check protective devices (S) before commissioning.
Do not open or remove these during operation.
Switch off the diesel engine for all work
on the machine!
Secure the cardan shaft guards against
turning! Replace damaged protection im-
mediately!

Multicoupling
If the combine harvester is equipped with a multi-
coupling, the pickup should also be equipped in
the same way.
The correct coupling is included in the scope of de-
livery.
Operation is performed in accordance with the reg-
ulations and instructions of the manufacturer of the
combine harvester.
Connection via the control valve coupling
Some brands of combine harvesters require a con-
trol valve coupling to connect a header.
The corresponding pickers are fitted with the requi-
site technology on a serial basis.
Operation is performed in accordance with the reg-
ulations and instructions of the manufacturer of the
combine harvester.
Avoid the danger area when performing
a functional check. Check for leaks.
Should you find a leak, comply with all
the requirements of environmental pro-
tection. Wear the corresponding protec-
tive clothing.
