Page 10: Operating And Driving Instructions
Frontflex 2000 Operating and Driving Instructions The Frontflex 2000 is constructed so that the implement’s centre of gravity is close to the tractor, reducing the weight of the implement on the tractor as much as possible and easing operation. Even when the Frontflex is mounted in the front lift, the implement is drawn across the field, making it easier to pass over minor obstacles. -
Page 11: Maintenance
Frontflex 2000 Maintenance Proper maintenance ensures a long lifetime for the Frontflex 2000 and also optimum performance from the implement. To facilitate maintenance, grease fittings (A) have been mounted on those locations where wear on the equip- ment is the greatest. Fig. -
Page 12: Backlash In The Rings
Frontflex 2000 Backlash in the rings Due to normal tolerances of the castings, washers may have been added be- tween the bearings and the roller rings and also between the lock washer (A) at the end of the shaft and the outermost ring (Fig. 7). To reduce and minimize backlash, insert a washer of suitable size between the ring and the lock washer (see page 18 ”Replacing bearings/shafts/rings”). -
Page 13: Options
Frontflex 2000 Options Crackerboard The Crackerboard is mounted in front of the packer roller rings and can be set to perform tillage actions of crumbling, levelling and packing as needed. Only the 150 and 300 cm models can be equipped with a Crackerboard. Operation The Crackerboard is a versatile piece of equipment, with several application possibilities in one unit. - Page 14 Frontflex 2000 If the tines are set deeper into the soil, pressure on the soil will be created and the tines will more easily be able to overcome obstructions (Fig. 9). This set- ting is recommended for levelling the field. At the same time, an effect similar to the clod crushing action of a levelling bar will be achieved.
