Safety Any operator, service man and owner must be familiar with the warning instructions for the machine in this manual, before operations commence. Always work carefully with agricultural machinery. Read through and observe the safety instructions in this manual. Safety is your responsibility. Pay particular attention to this symbol.
Page 13
Drive safely. Beware of your responsibility, - carelessness or slovenliness can cause serious injury or death. When the machine is in operation: Pay attention to the fact that models 4024 - 4028 in hilly ground conditions can be unstable in raised position. This can be abated by fitting a balancing weight in the left hand side (optional equipment, - see page 43).
Page 15
Supplemental safety instructions 1 - 2 The machine is equipped with WARNING decalls. If the decalls are damaged they must be replaced, - order number for a complete set of decalls is 68.886.000. In the following the placing of the warning decalls are shown and details of the danger. Warnings for swivel hitch WARNING.

"Swivel Hitch Version" Height of drawbar Adjust the machine's drawbar height by means of the tractor's link arms. Set the drawbar as horizontally as possible, taking the following into consideration: Check that the difference in height between the tractor's and machine's P.T.O. shafts is not excessive, - the P.T.O.

Operation - adjustment Cutting height - spring suspension The cutting height is adjusted by changing the cutting angle of the cutterbar A. Adjustment is from 4 to 8 inclination angle which corresponds to a stubble height of 25 mm to 40 mm (variable without pre-set steps).
Page 37
Checking / Adjusting, if necessary, the spring suspension area Check that the spring suspension area upwards is in the area 140 - 160 mm, as shown. Adjust, if necessary, the spindles A of the lifting cylinders in the left hand and the right hand side, as shown.
Page 39
Adjustable conditioning The distance of the conditioning plate from the rotor can be adjusted in three positions I, II and III by means of a single lever A. Adjustment should be made according to the kind of crop: Pos. I Pos.
Page 41
Take care that no persons are in the machine swinging area. • Models 4024 - 4028 - 4032 - 4036: The safety chain A must be fitted. • Fit safety devices S on the lifting cylinders in the right and left hand sides.
Page 43
Models 4024 - 4028 - 4028 C - 4032 C: Counterbalance weight G is used in hilly terrain to stabilise the machine. On models 4024 - 4028 only one weight is used on the left hand side. On models 4028 C and 4032 C, weights are used on both sides of the machine.
Page 45
Throwing wings (optional equipment) Normally the machine is used without throwing wings on the cutting discs. If striping problems occur in spring crops, caused by grass blocking on the discs, throwing wings A may be fitted in order to limit these problems. Note that the throwing wings are different for right-turning and left- turning cutting discs.
Page 47
Swath deflectors (not model 4036 and 4036 C) The models 4024, 4028, 4028 C, 4032 and 4032 C can be equipped with hydraulic swath deflectors as a factory fitted option. With this equipment 2 swaths can be placed along side each other. Both swaths can be picked up at the same time by f.ex.
Page 49
Maintenance During all service operations involving knives and cutting discs the tractor engine must be stopped, the hand brake activated. If the machine has been raised, the safety devices S must be fitted to the lifting cylinders on the left and right hand sides. Re-tighten the bolts of the cutting discs and knife holders on your new machine before starting and again after about 1 hour of operation.

Models 4024 - 4028 - 4032 - 4036: The machine friction clutch A is located under the drawbar. Models 4028 C - 4032 C - 4036 C: The friction clutch is located at G. Ensure that the friction clutch, which has a built-in freewheel function, is in good operating condition.
Page 53
The conditioning rotor's Y-fingers Bolts for Y-fingers must not be over-tightened. The fingers and rubber dampers must be able to move freely. Worn or bent Y-fingers must be replaced immediately. Worn and hardened rubber blocks A must also be replaced. Lacking Y-fingers will produce vibrations in the machine with fracture as a consequence.

Lubrication (Lubricants, - see page 77) Before starting up new machine: Check the oil level of the gearbox and cutterbar, - see pages 59 and 61. Lubricate the whole machine and P.T.O. shafts. PTO shaft: tractor - swivel hitch PTO shaft: tractor - wide angle shaft PTO shaft below drawbar Mounting frame Chain coupling or universal joint...

Connection arms Wheel bracket, lifting cylinder Rotor Splined pin below gearbox Universal joint Tension roller Spring guide Movable mechanical joints should be lubricated as required and the wheel hubs should be refilled with grease once per season. During idle periods (one week or more): Wash and lubricate the machine, spray it with a thin layer of rust protecting oil - this is especially important for cutting discs, rotor and all shining surfaces.

Cutterbar Take care that worn bearings and gear wheels must be replaced in time. Otherwise a single damaged bearing might cause damage to the whole cutterbar. Use the correct back-stop when pressing new bearings into the gear wheel/bearing housing. Only press the bearing ring which is pressed into the gear wheel/bearing, - otherwise new bearings might be damaged when fitting.
Page 71
Transmission "gearbox - cutterbar" Check that the opening B between the tightening ring of the shaft and the cone does not exceed 1 mm. If the distance is larger knock down the flange of the cone a little. Keep the cones clean, clen them inside 2 - 3 times per season. If the cones are unbalanced, vibrations could occur causing damage to the cutterbar.

Winter storage When the season is finished, preparation for winter storage should take place immediately. Start by thoroughly cleaning the machine, - then grease the machine thoroughly so that any remaining water is pressed out of the bearings. Change the oil in cutterbar and gearbox and let the machine rotate for a few minutes.
