1. Fold the wings and fit pins.
To fold the wings for transport, follow these
instructions:
1. Raise the plough off the ground with the
lift circuit.
2. Fold the wings up until they rest in the
wing cradles. Make sure every body is
well clear of the machine when folding the
wings up.
3. Lock both wings into their cradles with the
pins provided.
2. Ensure the pitch lock pins
are fitted.
The plough's lock-up bar (located under the
pitch control) must be pinned to provide a rigid
hitch for transport. This involves inserting two
pins into the transport lock-up bar.
To do this:
1. Fully raise the plough on the wheel lift
circuit.
2. Using the Pitch Control cyclinder, level the
machine by eye from the tractor.
3. Remove both lower and upper pins from
lock-up slides and pin either slide, which
allows machine to be at the closest level.
4. Adjust the cylinder so that the second
slide can be fitted and pinned. Ensure the
pin is locked.

2. Fit the travel pins to the
wheel lift assembly.
Before the plough is transported, it is essential
that the travel pins are placed on the wheel lift
cylinders.
1. Fully raise the plough off the ground.
2. Next fit and secure the travel pins (stored
in the plough toolbox) to the wheel lift
cylinders. When both travel pins are fitted,
keep the pressure in the lines so weight is
on the cyllinders not on the travel pins.
