DANGER
Risk of cutting and severing - Sharp edges and severing
points on work tools.
Beware of the sharp blades and risk
of crushing especially during maintenance or when removing
blockages. Always stop the attachment by following the safe
stopping procedure. To make sure that the attachment will
not rotate, disconnect the multiconnector (or hydraulic quick
couplings) before going near it. Note that the loader boom
moves down and may be tilted even if the engine has been
stopped. Never go under a raised boom or any component of
the attachment. Keep away from the moving linkage.
6.5
Direction of rotation
Check the rotating direction of the blades. The
blades should rotate clockwise when seen from the
right side of the machine, in other words, the hoe
should rotate to the opposite direction as the wheels
when reversing with the loader. If the hoe rotates the
wrong way, contact Avant service, or interchange the
hydraulic pressure hoses' places when using
conventional quick couplings.
6.6
Adjusting cultivation depth and dozer blade height
The cultivation depth can be adjusted steplessly by
setting the field roller height and by tilting the loader
boom. After the tilting and height is set correctly, lift
the hoe by using only the boom lifting movement,
without tilting the attachment. This way the hoe can
be lowered quickly to the correct operating position
and cultivation depth.
The dozer blade is adjusted vertically, and its height
can be adjusted by setting the blade to one of the six
possible options parallel on both sides.
6.7
Adjusting the scraper
The Rotary hoe is equipped with a scraper for
keeping the field roller clean during operation.
The scraper (1) is adjusted by loosening the fixing
screws (2) parallel on both sides and moving the
scraper (1) horizontally.
