General guidelines for working
with the machine
All work in the immediate area of the rotors may only be carried
out when the p.t.o. is switched off.
Caution!
Do not enter rotor area while driving motor is
running.
- Choose the speed of travel so that all crops are picked up
thoroughly.
- In cases of overloading, shift down one gear.
Three-point slewing headstock "type N"
- Lift three point follower machine before going around sharp bends
and when reversing.
Beware!
machine swings automatically back to central position
when lifted and is locked into position.
Take care that the swinging machine does not endanger
anybody and does not hit solid obstacles.
when lowering the machine the locking devise is
automatically lifted.
Operating on slopes
Take note! machine with three-point slewing headstock
"type N"
If the implement is being raised by the lifting gear whilst travelling in
a curve, the implement swings automatically into the central position.
If working on slopes this can lead to dangerous situations, partly due
to the balance weight of the implement (tipping, slipping, material
breakage etc.).
The function of the shock absorbtion struts is to allow the swinging
procedure to be executed slowly and continuously, not in jerks and
jolts.
Shock absorbtion struts
(Optional extra)
Shock absorbtion struts (D) are
recommended for work on slopes
as they increase travel safety.
Adjustment
By turning the hexagonal nut (SK) the initial
tension of the disk spring and, with that, the
pressure on the friction elements (R) on the
rod can be altered.
Variation
(standard equipment)
Adjustment
- Adjust length of upper
link (9) so that rotors
are inclined forward
and spring tines lightly
touch the ground (see
chapter "Adjustment
of rotor inclination"
also). Check upper link
(9) adjustment regularly
during work operation.
Setting lower link:
- Tractor's lower link (U)
must be set so that there
is no sideways play in order
to prevent tedder from
swinging back and forth.
Tractor control
device (ST)
- Put tractor control device (ST) into
"free gear" (floating position or
"lower").
In this way the rotors adapt to uneven
ground.
