Operating speed
An operating speed of 6-10 km/h is recommended, but always operate accord-
ing to conditions.
Increased speed will increase wear, particularly in dry conditions. The rings
can also be damaged if operating at excessive speeds in unfavourable condi-
tions.
Adjustment of hydraulic suspension of pendulum frames
Hydraulic weight transfer distributes the weight evenly between all roller sec-
tions. Pressure on the pendulum frames must therefore also be uniform!

Failure to do so is incorrect use and can cause the frame to break
in the worst scenario.
1 Once the roller is unfolded and adjusted for the correct pressure and
flow setting, adjust the suspension pressure.
2 Cylinder
(A)
on all 5 pendulum frames, to
absorb impact from large
stones.
3 Manometer
(B)
on top of the machine for the
operator to monitor pressure.
Cock (C) is fitted for easy ad-
justment of pressure. Adjust
cock until the correct pressure
is achieved with the tractor
hydraulics in flow setting. We
recommend 70 bar. If addi-
tional pressure is required,
keep the cock open and use
the tractor hydraulics to in-
crease pressure.
