General description and intended use
CLEMENS RADIUS SL PLUS
mainly consists of the following assemblies:
Basic body with hose guide
Mounting for shaft unit or driven tool
Control valve
Control unit
Swivel cylinder
Spring unit
The RADIUS is attached with clamping straps to a standard spar of the corresponding mounting bracket, lifter,
mounting frame, etc.
The operating principle of the RADIUS is based on a control valve supplied by the tractor hydraulics providing oil
to the swivel cylinder. The blade share is turned outwards while driving up towards the vine. When the sensor rod
touches the vine, the control valve is actuated and the oil flow to the swivel cylinder is interrupted. The blade share
pivots inwards supported by spring force and thus avoids the vine. Once the pressure on the sensor rod has been
relieved, the swivel cylinder is again supplied with oil and the blade share swivels back to its initial position.
