Page 46
4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 11. Install all the support wheels in the working position. 12. Reinstall all the dismounted tine carrier arms to the rotor discs. 13. Install the two foldable tine bars to the outer rotors so that the two foldable tine bars face outward. NOTICE: Before you pass through low-height door- ways, fold in the foldable tine bars and the outer safety frames.
4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Installation of the rotor arms 1. Use the bolts M12 x 45 (5) to install the pre-assembled rotor arm (2) on the hub (1). Use the hexagonal head bolts M12 x 35 (3) and the locknuts M12 (4) for each arm.
4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Starting the unit Connection to the tractor WARNING Crushing hazard! Use care when you connect and disconnect the machines. Never stand between the trac- tor and the implement when you connect the link arms. Failure to comply could result in death or se- rious injury.
Page 49
4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Before you connect the implement to the tractor three-point linkage on soft ground, swing out the implement to the working position. 1. Connect the hydraulic piping of the implement to the tractor quick-action coupling. Couple the electro plug of the implement to the tractor.
4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Power Take-Off (PTO) shaft – Shorten Power Take-Off (PTO) shaft length NOTE: Do not shorten your new Power Take-Off (PTO) shaft until you are certain that it is necessary. From the factory the distance from PTO to Power Input Connection (PIC) is standard on most tractor brands.
Page 51
4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Shortening the PTO shaft To shorten the PTO shaft proceed as follows. 1. Fasten the PTO shaft half parts to the PTO (on the tractor) and the PIC (on the implement). The PTO shaft half parts must be at the same horizontal level, opposite each other at the shortest distance from the tractor.
4 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Parking the unit Disconnection and parking Park the implement on a firm and even ground. To park the implement: 1. Place the implement on a firm and level ground. 2. Disconnect all the hydraulic couplers. 3. Disconnect the electrical connection. 4.
5 - TRANSPORT OPERATIONS 5 - TRANSPORT OPERATIONS###_5_### Preparing for road transport Conversion of the tedder from working to transport position NOTICE: Adhere to the maximum permissible axle loads, total weights. NOTICE: Adhere to the permissible transport measure- ments. NOTICE: Fit and check transport gear, traffic lights, warn- ing and safety signalization and safety guards.
5 - TRANSPORT OPERATIONS Shipping transport Transport on pallet The implement is completely assembled and submitted to a run test before the implement leave the factory. Before the implement is palletized for shipment, the sup- port wheels, the warning panels and the tine carrier arms are however dismounted.
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS 6 - WORKING OPERATIONS###_6_### General information Description of operation The tedder is a haymaking implement designed for the following operations: • Tedding. • Turning. • Clearing of field boundaries. • Spreading of windrows or small night swaths. The implement is equipped with six rotors rotating by pairs in opposite directions.
Page 56
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS Turning To prevent leaf damage losses when you turn the crop already spread, select a low PTO speed while at the same time you increase the forward speed. To make sure the ratio between travel and PTO speed is correct, check the scatter pattern achieved.
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS Double PTO joints The double Power Take-Off (PTO) joints (1) are located in the driveline of the main frame. The position of the PTO permit to turn and fold the rotors without damage the driveline. The double PTO joints (1) are maintenance free. ZEIL18HT00382AA Adjustable tine position to the arm The tine (1) can be set in two positions: (X) 8°...
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS Basic adjustment NOTICE: Always stop the implement before you perform any adjustments. Tine adjustment It is possible to change the tine angle from the standard angle of 8° to 2°. Stepper position of tines give more grip on the forage crop.
Page 59
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS Implement for practical operation adjust- ment 1. Adjust the tilting angle of the implement with of the top link. The double spring tines must tap the ground. 2. With the implement set with too low position, you will damage the crop, the grass stubble and risk to dam- age the double spring tines.
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS Working speed and number of revolutions NOTE: Adapt the working speed to the conditions of ground. Avoid abrupt turning on sloped terrain. Never exceed 25 km/h (16 mph) on the road. NOTE: When you drive round bends be careful for width of the tractor and the change of the center of gravity of the implement.
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS Conversion of the tedder from transport to working position 1. Raise the implement in the headstock. 2. Swing out the jib arms. 3. Unlock the headstock and lower the implement. ZEIL17HT00126AA Working position 1. Move the lever (1) to the front. 2.
6 - WORKING OPERATIONS Adjustment of the support wheels NOTICE: You can set the support wheels to different spread angles. NOTICE: The spreading angle depends on and changes with the working conditions. 1. Lift the implement to adjust the spreading angle. 2.

7 - MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE###_7_### General information Maintenance General information WARNING Avoid injury! Follow ALL of the precautions listed below. Failure to comply could result in death or se- rious injury. W1091A NOTICE: Do the maintenance, the service, the cleaning, and the repair with the Power Take-Off (PTO) shaft and the engine OFF.
7 - MAINTENANCE Torque Minimum hardware tightening torques (in N m or lb in /lb ft) for normal assembly applica- tions unless otherwise stated The minimum hardware tightening torque on drawings, in specifications, etcetera have priority. In the following tables, torque specifications are shown following the standard ENS7001, applicable for material class 8.8 and material class 10.9.
7 - MAINTENANCE Torque for class 12.9 Bolts of quality 12.9 are used on the implements. Make sure to use the same type of bolts and nuts to replace bolts and nuts of quality 12.9. It is easier to torque bolts and nuts to correct value of torque if you lubricate bolts and nuts with oil.

7 - MAINTENANCE As required Tire pressure NOTICE: Before do the maintenance on the tires you must stable the implement. Put a wood blocks on the tires to prevent movement of the implement. NOTICE: Mounting of wheels requires sufficient knowl- edge and correct mounting tools.
7 - MAINTENANCE Storage Pressure washing Before you use pressure washing, clean the implement with compressed air. NOTE: Legislation in certain countries and good practice requires special treatment of waste water through sed- imentation and oil separation and controlled removal of residues.
7 - MAINTENANCE End of season service When the season is over, prepare the implement for the storage immediately. To prepare the implement for winter storage: 1. Clean the implement thoroughly. Dust and dirt absorb moisture and moisture increases the formation of rust. 2.
Order and install the spare parts and/or accessories at once before the next season. When you order spare parts, always make sure to give your KONGSKILDE dealer the model number and the Product Identification Number (PIN) of your implement. See “Product identification” in Chapter 1 of this opera- tor’s manual.
