Operating and Driving Instructions

Proper operation is essential for optimum performance of your MaxiDisc. Proper
operation concerns both the carrying out of tillage operations in the field as well as
the following of safety precautions. Make sure that you have a thorough understand-
ing of all safety precautions.


Unfolding and Folding


Always fold and unfold the wings of the MaxiDisc while the equipment is
stationary and the tractor is parked.
The mechanical transport locks become engaged and disengaged when the side
wings are folded and unfolded between the transport and the working position. Upon
arrival to the working area, activate the lever for the folding/unfolding of the side
wings. Make sure that the side sections are fully raised. Release the transport lock by
activating the lever to the wheel cylinder so that the cylinder is pressed out to the
fully extended position. The transport locks will be released, and the side wings to-
gether with the packer roller can then be unfolded.

Folding

Move the wheel cylinders to the fully extended position before folding up the side
sections into the transport position. This ensures that the mechanical transport lock
of the wheel frame is able to fall down and lock the wheel frame into place.
After the side wings and the packer roller have been folded up, lower the MaxiDisc
so that the transport lock of the wheel suspension locks firmly and securely.

Make sure that all transport locks are securely fastened before transporting the
implement on public roads.

Hydraulic Weight Transfer

The hydraulic weight transfer system of the MaxiDisc ensures an even distri-
bution of weight across all sections of the roller and an even field finish on all
types of terrain. The MaxiDisc is divided into two sections (3m or 2.5m)
which can move independently of each other.

It is very important to adjust the hydraulic weight transfer system correctly
and set the lever in the floating position.
MaxiDisc
 Every day before operating the MaxiDisc, inspect all pins, nuts, bolts
and connections to be sure that all are tightened and securely in place.
 The MaxiDisc must be in the fully raised position on both liftarms
and wheel frame when moving in reverseor turning around.
