The cutterbar must always be in contact
with the ground and all safety guards and
covers in place before starting to
operate the bar. It is advised that new
machines are run for 30 minutes before
being put into work to allow the parts
to run in gradually.
After a short operation at low revs, stop
the machine, turn off the tractor engine
and inspect the complete machine to see
that all nuts and bolts are still tight,
that non of the bearings are overheating
and that all parts are operating
correctly.
Before starting to cut, lower the
cutterbar to the ground and check that
all safety guards and covers are in place
and that the protection covers are
correctly secured and fastened together
with straps (L) (photo 3, page 11) and
strap (E) (photo 27 and fig. 28).
Before putting the machine into the
crop, engage the PTO of the tractor and
progressively increase its speed
(rotational frequency). Do not start
cutting until the machine has reached
full operating speed
(rotational
frequency) [540-620 rpm (min
-1
)]. For
safety measures, take care to keep all
persons well clear of the machine. Do not
be disturbed by the high pitched whine
of the discs and conditioning fingers,
this will be considerably reduced when
cutting.
Ensure that the knives are sharp, especially when cutting dry, fine or sparse grass.
Should soil build up in the front of the cutterbar, reduce the downward pressure of
the cutterbar by increasing the tension of the compensating springs (O & O’) (photo
18, page 14).
II. PARKING POSITION
- Put the stand (D) in parking and
attachment position using the spring
cotter pin (A), as shown in photo 26.
- Lower the machine to the ground and
remove from tractor.
When the primary PTO shaft is disconnected
from the tractor, it should not rest
on the ground but be held by the hook
(Z) (photo 5, page 10).
Removal of the machine from tractor must only be undertaken when the machine
is in the transport position otherwise damage will be caused to the mower
conditioner.
