2740T TRASHCUTTER OPERATOR & SAFETY MANUAL
IN FIELD SETUP FOR 15M(50FT) 18M(60FT)
1. Set machine in working position.
2. Extend tilt rams until rear section sits slightly down at rear
i.e. tilt rams not fully extended.
3. In hard soils increase hydraulic disc down pressure to
bring outer wing wheels 50-100mm above ground.
4. Operate machine with accumulator indicator between
5-8.
(figure 28)
*NB in soft soils it is not necessary to raise outer wheels
above ground level
5. Adjust the front of the lay flat bars to sit between
50-100mm above ground level.
(see figure 29)
6. Adjust rear of lay flat bars to on or just above ground
surface..
(see figure 29)
*NB On these models front height or lay flat bars may be
fine-tuned using tilt hydraulics on the go.
ANGLE ADJUSTMENT FOR INCREASED SOIL
DISTURBANCE
1. Cutting ability in increased by a slight disc angle.
2. To increase wing disc angle lengthen wing connecting
arm.
(see figure 30)
3. Change angle by inserting pin in one of four angle
asdjustment holes.
4. The four angle settings are:
Pin hole setting 1=0
Pin hole setting 2=2.5
Pin hole setting 3=5
Pin hole setting 4=7.5
Figure 29
For better ground following down pressure
rams should be extended approx. half stroke
i.e. extended 100mm
