Clamping sleeves
which serve to accommodate M16 screws (shearing screw and attachment screws of the
clamps) are located in the bottom series of holes. If attachment clamps are used, clamping sleeves must also be
inserted in the top holes. It must be ensured that the slit in the clamping sleeve always points upwards.
If you work with
Bison tines
, always mount them on the base frame, never on the sliding parts!
In order to be also able to work broad rows,
extensions
with hexagon profile, like the basic frame, can be
attached. They have a length of 200 mm (CL729.240000, approx. 8”) resp. 400 mm (CL729.140000, approx. 16“)
and allow the mounting of 2 additional chisel bodies on each side. CLEMENS points out that only
one
of these
extensions is allowed on each side.
For the
undervine care
, RADIUS or Rotary Brush/MULTICLEAN can be attached at both sides. In place of a land
roller a rotary cultivator, rotary harrow or sowing machine, for example, are possible. If the additional machine is
driven by a PTO shaft, for this purpose the attachment bracket for the central tool must be dismantled so that the
propeller shaft can be passed through.
If a
two-sided CLEMENS RADIUS
is used, please observe the connection instructions for mounting in the
operating manual of the RADIUS. The fastening for RADIUS has to be mounted on the outside (see Figure 3).

If you have acquired a HEXAGON without
hydraulic
width adjustment,
retrofitting
is possible at any time. You
can also carry out the assembly yourself. First push the left-hand side sliding unit into the frame and tighten the
appropriate adjusting screws slightly. Then push the right-hand side sliding unit into the frame. Secure the
master/slave cylinder, push the sliding parts right together and then evenly tighten the clamping levers at the top
and bottom.
