SAFETY INSTRUCTION Maintenance and replacement of pick-up spring may be carried out only when the tractor engine is stopped and the rotors have stopped rotating. Always keep a good distance from the rotors when the machine is working. Power transmission shaft with slipping clutch must always be used. INTRODUKTION The Fransgård rotary turner is one of the fastest and most efficient hay-turners on the world market today.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE Fastening of rotary turner to tractor : Always use stabilizer or tighten the chains in order to prevent the lifting arms from moving sideways during raking and transport, in order to protect the power transmission shaft. The length of the power transmission shaft must be checked in wor- king position as well as in transport position, and if necessary it shall be shortened.
ADJUSTMENT FOR RAKING AND LAYING IN SWATHS All pick-up springs are placed in raking position Pos 1 as shown in the illustration. (Check that all are in the same position). The wheel are placed in the upper or middle position Pos 1. The machine will then be in its lowest position.
TRANSPORT POSITION During transport, the locking device Pos 1 must be engaged so in fact that the machine will move directly behind the tractor. This way the machine will be prevented from moving to the side. WORKING POSITION The rotary turner is built to move on the left side with no problems. When moving on the right side, the machine must be raised.
POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS LUBRICATION AND MAINTANCE After each 5 hours of work, the lubricator nipples in the interior tube of the power transmission shaft must be lubricated. After each 10 hours of work, the 2 lubricator nipples of the gearbox must be lubricated. When the season is over, the machine must be cleaned and made ready for the next season.
