OPERATION
• If an operator plugs in the 7-pin connector, but the
lights do not seem to work right, check the above
items to make sure there is a good connection with
the 7-pin connector.
Field Operation
The Transport Pulverizer is designed to be pulled behind
field cultivators and discs. It can also be used as an
individual unit with the tractor to prepare a seedbed or,
after seeding, to break down and pulverize large surface
clods. The long drawbar allows for easy, short turns when
pulled behind other equipment.
It maybe necessary to extend the cylinder rod slightly to
remove the Transport Lock Pin from the locked position to
the storage position. See Figure 3-1.
During field operation, it is not necessary to raise the
machine when making turns, but turns should be made
wide. Slow down when operating on rocky soil.

Transporting
To prepare the machine for transport, hitch pulverizer to
desired device, lower jack and pin it up out of the way.
Then raise the machine fully. Remove Transport Lock Pin
from storage position and install the Transport Lock Pin in
its locked position. See Figure 3-2.

IMPORTANT
It is the responsibility of the owner/operator to
comply with all applicable laws regarding slow
moving vehicle signs, warning lights, and reflectors.

Parking the Transport Pulverizer
The best way to park the pulverizer is to place the
machine in its desired location. Once there, remove the
Transport Lock Pin and place it in the rear-most hole.
Lower the machine to the ground. Place blocks in front
and behind the pulverizer to prevent it from rolling when
unhitched. Lower the jack and adjust height of drawbar to
allow for unhitching. Then unhitch the pulverizer.
If you must park the pulverizer with the wheels in
transport position, start by placing the jack in the
foremost position. Place the blocking in front and behind
the pulverizer wheels to prevent rolling. Finally, adjust the
jack height to allow for unhitching and disconnect of the
pulverizer.
