A warning for those attaching tines A number of different tines patterns are available from Kongskilde, each of which has been design for different soil conditions. Chose an appropriate pattern for the conditions expected and then attach the tines where indicated by the pattern. The actual attachment is shown in the picture in the upper right.
Assembly Information for the VFM Tine: The VTM tines are larger than most other tines. For this reason this the stem of the tine will interfer with attachment of the tine to the toolbar. Hence, the tine can not be assembled prior to being attached to the toolbar. To avoid this problem assemble the tines in the following order.
Assembling the Center Frame: The picture below shows how to assemble the center frame. The front frame attaches to the rear frame as shown above. Use the bolts listed in the "parts book". Be sure to bolt both top and bottom holes in the front and back. Remember to tighten them well.
Wheel Installation : The next step in the assembly is attaching the wheels to the rear part of the center frame. The top picture shows the wheel assembly and the lower picture shows the exploded view of the wheel assembly. Wheel mounting with one wheel removed to show the assembly.

Wing Installation & Hinge Pins: The wing installation requires the moving of the two wing frames into contact with the centre frame. The contact points should be the hinges where the wings fold. Wide Center This picture shows the two parts of the center frame and the two components of the one wing.
Mechanical Adjust Wheels on 1.0m Wings: (Only used on the 16' - 5.0m Res-Till) The 1.0m wing uses the mechanical adjust wheels as the main gauge wheels. These wheel attaches work the same on each wing because they are symmetric. The wheels are attaced as shown below.
Wing Cylinder Assembly: Start by mounting the wheel-lift cylinder in the location shown on the following page, with the pins described in the "Spare Parts List". The wing-lift cylinders should be attached as shown below. The ports on both wing cylinders should face to the outside of the machine.
Wing Cylinder Pins Install the wing cylinder pin such that it keeps the cylinder away from the frame as shown. Wing Cylinder Pin shown with roll pin Place wing cylinder pin in these locations The roll pin fits inside the clevis keeping the clevis away from the walking tandem arm.
Adjustment Point Attachment: Attach the adjustment arm as shown below. Extending the adjustment arm raises the wheels and lowers the body. For more information on adjustments refer to the "Owners Manual". Adjustment Slider: Make sure the wing adjustment slider is cranked out to 7 - 8” before raising the machine with the cylinder.
