SECTION 3 - MACHINE SETTINGS & ADJUSTMENTS
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
The Kverneland 600 series transmission is
protected by a P.T.O shaft shear bolt
flange. Use only shear bolt size: M8 x 60
grade 8,8 unplated.
NOTE!
Always fully investigate the reason
for any shearbolt failure. Disengage and
remove the P.T.O shaft, stop the tractor
engine and remove key. Inspect the
machine to establish cause of failure; if
possible, remove the obstruction.
Replace broken shearbolt. (see Section 4)
DRAIN PLUGS
Drain plug are accessed at the front of the machine on the
under side of the auger troughs. The drain plugs allow
liquid to drain from the mixing chamber (figure 18). To
ensure complete drainage the machine will need to be
parked with the drawbar down.
TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL
1. Using a 6mm ‘Allen Key’ open the left and right hand front transmission panels to gain access to the
transmission.
2. It is IMPORTANT for chain lubrication that the transmission case is filled with the correct grade of oil (see
lubrication chart) and to the correct level, figure 19
