OPTIONS, TURF HOLD DOWN KIT.
(Old set till serial number A00127)
A Turf Hold Down Kit can be used when the turf is coming loose. Two kits are available for the
7316. One with fingers lining up with the 12 mm ( ½”) holes of the tine holder ( part # 9200045) and
one with finger lining up with the 18 mm (3/4”) holes (part # 9200047).
ASSEMBLING THE TURF HOLD DOWN KIT ( see fig.12):
-
Mount an extra bush 2 on new longer bolts 1 and 4 at the inner side of both front roller supports.
Tighten the bolts. The bushes can stay on forever.
-
Assemble square nut 8 on the main beam 7. The nut should face vertical in the end. Tighten the
nut, since it can stay all the time.
-
The main beam can be hooked onto the machine. The cut outs on the plate at each side of the
main beam 7, should fit the mounted bushes 2.
-
When the main beam is hooked up, fit bolt 9 and square nut 13. When assembled and tightened,
the main beam is in place.
-
The ordered kit comes with fingers 10 or 14. Assemble the fingers with bolt 11 and nut 12. Use
the slotted hole in the fingers to align the fingers to the tines.
-
The whole assembly can be taken of by removing the bolt 9 and nut 13.
-
If the finger are bent in one direction after a long while, mount them the opposite way.
SOME OTHER NOTES:
-
When the tines are not centred to the machine anymore, the tines may hit the side of the slots.
Realign the tine holders.
-
If the tines hit the front of the hole ( during work), check the draw rod length.
* Never creep under the machine. Have the machine well blocked.
