BRACE SYSTEM & ADJUSTMENT
Brace System
In order to
‘brace’ the machine in both transport and work position, a fixed lug on the main beam
is designed to locate with receiver brackets positioned on the roller frame and on the axle bridge
assembly respectively; when correctly engaged, in either position, it acts as a locking
mechanism for the main beam to reduce stress on the main pivot position.
It is important that the machine always fully engages in both the positions; if the machine fails to
engage correctly the folding mechanism will require adjusting, this is performed by altering the
length of the adjustable link between the main beam and the rocker assembly.
Brace Adjustment
Adjustment must only be made with the machine in the work position; tighten or loosen the link
to bring the beam into a position where the fixed lug
‘just’ fully locates with its receiving bracket,
adjustment of the link is only required in the work position as the machines geometry dictates
that the transport position will then automatically be correct.
The adjustable link should be inspected on a regular basis for signs of wear on the end joints;
these should be replaced when signs of wear are detected as this will alter the geometry
resulting in the machine not ‘bracing’ correctly.
