  • Page 2 Kongskilde product. These instruction booklets have been developed to assist you in assembling, adjusting and maintaining your new Kongskilde Product. To obtain optimal performance over the lifetime of the product read and follow these instructions carefully. A copy of the Spare Parts List has also been provided in order to identify the components and hardware needed for each step of the assembly and to help you identify and obtain replacement parts in the future.
  • Page 3 Pre Assembly Instructions: Assembly of Kongskilde products should only be undertaken by authorized Kongskilde Dealers or an approved service provider who has the necessary tools, equipment and training for safe handling and proper assembly of the unit. Proper handling and assembly of the components is critical in order to validate the warranty policy.
  • Page 4 FRAME ASSMEBLY Sort out the frame sections for the size of cultivator you are assembling. Note that there are 2 different centre frame configurations as shown below: 1) 10' (3m) narrow transport model or 2) 13' (4m) wide transport model. The main wing frames are the same for both the 3m and 4m models however, some compnents are different such as the folding hinges, assembly hardware and hydraulic hose kits.
  • Page 5 To ensure the stability of the frames and safety of the workers during assembly, place the cultivator frames on surdy steel shop stands. Do not use construction blocks, tiles or supports constructed of wood or other materials that could crush under continuous load. Position the stands so they do not interfere with the mounting of frame components and tines.
  • Page 6 Carefully unpack and lay out all of the fasteners and hardware. (The empty shipping crate and cardboard makes an excellent temporary work bench.) Assembling the cultivator is more efficient if you take a few minutes to sort and organize the hardware by type and size instead of dumping the bag or box in a pile on the floor.
  • Page 7 Frame assembly can be done while the frames are sitting on the assembly stands, or the stands may be removed once the tines are mounted. Use a fork lift or overhead hoist to move the heavy frame components into position for assembly.
  • Page 8 Although the 10' (3M) and 13' (4M) centre sections and self levelling wheel lift linkages have some different components, they both have the same basic function and use the same order of assembly as shown by the numbers below and opposite. Sort out the pieces for the centre section self levelling linkages and wheel arms according to the parts list and the diagram below for 10' (3m) or opposite on page 9 for the 13' (4m).
  • Page 9 After the wheel arm assemblies are installed, the self levelling linkages can be attached starting with the wheel connection link at the back and work forward to the hitch. The numbers below show the proper order of assembly. Refer to the detailed instructions beginning on page 10 for proper assembly of the wheel arms and self levelling lift linkages.
  • Page 10 Carefully insert the wheel axle pivot bushings into the ends of the wheel arm tubes. Tap the bushings into the ends of the tubes with a block of wood or rubberized hammer. Before mounting the tires, install the wheel spindle bolts as shown. The front spindle must be in the 1st hole or wide position for all centre machines.
  • Page 11 Using a lift truck or overhead hoist equipped with an approved lifting chain or strap, lift the wheel arm assemblies one at a time into the centre frame as shown below before installing the Self Levelling Wheel Arm Pivot Linkages. The wheel arm pivots must be aligned with the holes in the frame and then secured with the axle pin as shown in the detail below.
  • Page 12 For the 10' (3m) centre, attach the short Wheel Link Connector to the Wheel Arm Pivot Links and A-Frame Wheel Links with the bolts provided. Remember to install the spacer bushings so the upper pivot point will not bind when the bolts are tightened. 10' (3m) Self levelling Pivot Links A-Frame Wheel Links...
  • Page 13 For the 13' (4m) centre, the assembly is the same only the Wheel Link Connector is longer. Attach the Wheel Link Connector to the Wheel Arm Pivot Links and A-Frame Wheel Links with the bolts provided. Once again, remember to install the spacer bushings so the upper pivot point will not bind when the bolts are tightened.
  • Page 14 Install the 10' (3m) main pivot link with the long pin provided. When the main link is in place install the 4.5" x 8" master cylinder as shown in the detail below. Do not install the other linkages until both the main pivot link and cylinder are in place. Install Main Pivot Link and Master Cylinder Attach the master cylinder with the pins...
  • Page 15 The 13' (4m) main pivot installs in much the same way as the 10' (3m) except that the 13' main pivot is larger and requires a central pivot pin and additional mounting bolts to be installed in the outside pivot mounts. The pivot bolts should not be tightened fully so that the pivot link can move freely when the cylinder is extended or retracted.
  • Page 16 Install the A-frame wheel links on the 10' (3m) centre as shown below. The wheel links are identical so it does not matter which way you turn them. Attach the front of the wheel linkages to the main pivot with the 1" (25mm) ID bushings and insert the pins from the outside to secure both linkages to the main pivot link.
  • Page 17 The A-Frame wheel links are the same for both the 10' and 13' centres, and are installed the same way as shown below. The only difference is that the links are spaced wider apart on the 13' centre due to the wider frame and wheel spacing. Attach the front of the wheel linkages to the main pivot with the 1"...
  • Page 18 To complete the assembly of the self levelling wheel link system, install the front pivot link to the lug in the centre of the front frame. Attach the wide end of the large triangular self levelling link to the main pivot with the long pin provided and attach the narrow end to the front pivot link with the shorter pin provided.
  • Page 19 The diagram below shows the completed 13' (4m) centre frame and self levelling wheel lift linkage assembly. Take care to go over the assembly of the centre section and linkage system to make sure that all nuts and bolts are installed and tighened. Check all pin connections and make sure the roll pins or clip pins are installed and locked.
  • Page 20: Hitch Assembly

    HITCH ASSEMBLY The draw hitch components are identical for both the 10' and 13' centre sections and follow the same order of assembly as shown on the numbered diagram below. Gather the components and begin assembling the hitch with the hardware described in the spare parts list.
  • Page 21 After connecting the hitch adjuster at position 1, attach the hitch side members with the 1-1/2" pins with washers and roll pins at position 2 and 3. The side tubes are both the same and can be flipped either way to make the left and right side member. As shown in step 4 below, place the large eye of the saftey chain over the bushing at the front.
  • Page 22: Wing Assembly

    WING ASSEMBLY Gather the components for the wing frames and assemble using the hardware described in the parts list booklet.The wing frame sections are basically the same for both 10' (3m) - shown below, and 13'(4m) centre machine - shown opposite. The main difference between the wing assembly of these 2 models is in the folding hinges and stub toolbars.
  • Page 23 The assembly diagram below shows the different folding hinges and front bolt on stub toolbar used on the cultivator model with 13' (4m) centre section. Also, Note how the front stub toolbar has a hinge pin that connects to the 13' centre front frame and there is no rear stub toolbar on this model.
  • Page 24 Install the front and rear folding hinges to the frames at the same time as you assemble the wing frames.The hinge pins and fold cylinder pins are installed later when connecting the wings to the centre section. Take care to leave the nuts and bolts loose at the hinges as it makes it easier to align the holes when attaching the wings to the centre section.
  • Page 25 When the wing frame is fully assembled and lowered to the ground resting on the tines, gather the components for the wing tandem wheel and wheel adjustment linkages. Before mounting the wheels on the hubs, install the wheel spindle bolts as shown. The front spindle must be in the wide position 1.
  • Page 26 Mount the wing wheel tower and wheel lift cylinder with the pins, bolts and nuts described in the parts list. The wheel cylinder upright attaches to the upper hole in the wheelarm tube with the pin and clip pin supplied. Note that the wing wheel lift cylinders are different sizes.
  • Page 27 Install the wing wheel adjustment linkage with the pins, locking clip pins and U-bolts supplied. The wheel linkage tube should be mounted with the hose brackets on the inside as shown in the detail photo below. Take care to keep the linkages straight when tightening the U-Bolts so the adjustment slider does not bind when adjusted in and out.
  • Page 28 The adjustment linkage is used to adjust the wings so they are level with the centre section when working in the field. To adjust the linkage, remove the clip pin and turn the adjustment casting clockwise or counter clockwise to lengthen or shorten the linkage. This in turn will raise or lower the wing wheel arm position so the wings will run level at the same depth as the centre section.
  • Page 29 Mechanical Adjust Wheels on 3'3" (1.0m) Wings: The mechanical adjusting wheel is used as the wing depth wheel on the 16' (5m) model cultivator with 1m wings. It is also available as an accessory wing gauge wheel on all other models.
  • Page 30 Mechanical Adjust Wheel used as Front Gauge Wheel: When used as a front gauge wheel the gauge wheel mounting bracket is attached to the front toolbar with the U-bolts provided. Again, the tire is usually mounted to the outside and positioned near the front corner of the machine.
  • Page 31 Final Assembly of the 10' (3m) Centre Section and Wings: Move the wing assemblies into position beside the centre section. Install the wing hinge pins according to step 1 & 2 in the diagram below. The hinge plate bolts should be loose to allow easier alignment and insertion of the hinge pins. The main hinge pins are designed to lock in position and must be turned so that when they are inserted thru the hinge plates and centre frame, the pin stub locks into the second hole in the hinge plate before the roll pin can be installed.
  • Page 32 Folding Cylinders for 10' (3m) Centres: When the wings are attached to the centre section the wing fold cylinders with hydraulic hose lines and fittings can be installed. The hydraulic assemblies are different for the 10' (3M) and 13' (4m) centre machines so make sure you have the correct diagram for the machine model you are assembling.
  • Page 33 Detail Pictures of the 10' (3m) Fold Cylinders Installed: Be sure to place four (4) 1" washers at rod end of cylinder. The inside two (2) keep the clevis centered. Shown: Cylinders in extended position. Fold lock pin goes in storage hole when not being used.
  • Page 34 Final Assembly of the 13' (4m) Centre Section and Wings: Move the wing assemblies into position beside the centre section. Install the wing hinge pins according to step 1, 2 & 3 in the diagram below. The hinge plate bolts should be loose to allow easier alignment and insertion of the hinge pins.The main hinge pins are designed to lock in position and must be turned so that when they are inserted thru the hinge plates and centre frame, the pin stub locks into the second hole in the hinge plate before the roll pin can be installed.
  • Page 35 Folding Cylinders 13' (4m) Centres: When the wings are attached to the centre section the wing fold cylinders with hydraulic hose lines and fittings can be installed. The hydraulic assembly is different for the 13' (4m) centre machines so make sure you have the correct hose layout diagram for the machine model you are assembling.
  • Page 36 Detail Pictures of the 13' (4m) Fold Cylinders Installed: Cylinders in extended Position. Place fold lock pin in storage hole when not being used. With cylinders in folded position, adjust fold lock plate so that the fold locking holes lineup. Insert fold lock pin as shown.
  • Page 37 Hydraulic Diagrams and Assembly Information: For proper installation of the hose lines and fittings refer to the hose layout diagram provided later in the booklet. The hydraulic hose lines and fittings are provided in the hose kit. Secure the hoses to the frames with the hose clamps, carriage bolts and locknuts provided. IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT PLACE HOSE LINES ALONG FRAME IN FRONT OF TOP FRAME MOUNTING PLATES AS SHOWN BELOW.
  • Page 38 NOTE: On a 3m Center machine, fasten the hoses to the wing frame and feed the cylinders from there. Also, tie hoses to the rod port as shown above NOTE: On a 3m Center machine, route the fold hoses in front of top frame leg Charge the wheel lift hydraulics by fully extending and retracting the wheel lift hydraulic cylinders several times.
  • Page 39 The wing fold cylinders must be charged with oil before attempting to fold the cultivator. Disconnect the cylinder rod clevis from the fold bracket and place a block under the cylinders as shown. Connect the hoses to the tractor or portable hydraulic unit and stroke the wing fold cylinders in and out several times holding the lever at the end of the stroke to remove the...
