Folding requires the driver to see the realization of one stage to the end before the next stage
can be started. This is a safety factor. The driver follows the movements taking place when
the folding is not fully automatic.
Stage 1 is complete when cultivators are up and locking devices closed. Rear harrows have also
been lifted up. Fold front levelling board completely back, picture 39.
Stage 2 is complete when the side sections wheels rise up about 20 cm and the movement
ends. Side sections have been released from their locking, picture 40.
Stage 3 is complete, when side sections have folded 180 degrees to the front and their locks have
been fixed in place, picture 41.
Picture 39. Stage 1 complete . Picture 40. Stage 2 complete. Picture 40. Stage 3 complete.
Now the machine is ready for road transport. Start menu can be accessed from folding menu by
pressing the arrow on the bottom left, picture 35.
11.3 Changing the machine from transport position to sowing position
Folding menu is accessed from start menu by pressing button 1, picture 34. Folding the 4 meter
Draco from road transport position to sowing position happens in three stages. Turning takes place
using the machine's 2-phase hydraulic valve.
When folding is performed, the machine's coulters and front cultivator must be raised up. Unfolding
has three stages, picture 35.
Moving from one stage to another takes place manually by pressing
the control unit. When the selected stage is activated, its button turns to red, pictures 36, 37 and 38.
Note! Unfolding from sowing position to road transport position must be strictly performed
in the order stipulated in this manual. If this is not adhered to, the machine's structures may
be damaged causing a great possibility of additional risks.
Note! Unfolding takes place in the reverse order to changing into transport position. This is
why unfolding starts at stage 3.
First stage 3: Side sections of coulters are turned from the front to working width, rear harrow unfolds.
Then stage 2: Locking the coulters' side sections to working width
Finally stage 1: Turning the front cultivator down to its working width
