    4.0 PTO. The PTO is a very important item. It drives the machine from the tractor and ensures the safe operations when correctly maintained and installed. The PTO shaft has its own CE certification. Read the PTO shaft manual, which is connected to the shaft itself L standard = 33 mm 1.300"...
  • Page 9: Use Of Pto

    4.2 USE OF PTO For the correct use of the PTO, the following items need to be checked: 1. During work the angle of the joints may never exceed 30 degrees 2. The joints have to be in line all the time 3.
  • Page 10: Working Depth Adjustment

    Fig.4. Fig.5. 5.0 WORKING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT. The working depth can be adjusted when the machine is lifted from the ground as follows, see fig. 4: Unscrew nuts 1 at each side of the machine one turn. Screw spindle 3 in or out. Every revolution is 4 mm (0.160").
  • Page 11: Ground Speed

    @ The angle of 90 degrees means that the tines penetrate perpendicular into the ground. This is only true if the machine is correctly set, see fig.1. If this isn't correct a push force F, see fig 5. is applied, which can seriously damage the machine.
  • Page 12: Starting Procedures

    Fig.7. 8.0 STARTING PROCEDURES The starting procedure is VERY important. If the start up is not done as described hereunder, serious damage to the machine may occur. Proceed as follows, see fig.7.: 1. Drive to the spot you want to start the operation. 2.

    15.2.2. REPLACEMENT OF A CRANK WITH BEARING Replacing a crank is necessary when it is cracked or when the big end nuts start to come loose on a regular base. Either the crank bearing, the crank bearing fitting or the big end pin holes in the crank are damaged.
  • Page 19: Options, Wheel Kit

    Fig.10. 16.0 OPTIONS, WHEEL KIT. The part number for a full transport kit for the 7316 is 9200100. This kit will be separately delivered and can be mounted to a standard 3-point linkage machine. Generally speaking, a machine with wheel kit will reduce the minimum horsepower required by 5 HP It also can be taken off quickly, so the machine can be used either way 16.0.1 MOUNTING THE WHEELKIT TO THE MACHINE On attached pages a detailed sketch is given from the assembly of the wheelkit of the 7316.

    hole at support AD. When the shaft is in place mount bolt S with washer R. Do not tighten the bolt. 6. Continue to do exactly the same at the other side of the machine. Since the wheel kit is symmetric, all parts are the same.
  • Page 21: Options, Core Collector

    Fig.11. 16.1 OPTIONS, CORE COLLECTOR. An easy mountable core collector is available for the 7316. The part number is 920080. ASSEMBLING INSTUCTIONS ( see Fig 11): Preparation of the Verti-Drain: Fit eye bolts 24 to the main frame 26 Assemble bushes 15 with the new longer bolts I to the rear roller supports. @ These bushes can stay on the machine all the time @ Use washers 16 to align the bushes to the rear roller scraper support.
  • Page 22 USER INSTRUCTIONS: When the core collector and the Verti-Drain are well prepared, the core collector supports 17 can be slided (X) onto the bushes 15. Secure it with R pins 19. The rear roller is of the ground, when the core collector is attached. It the clearance is not enough, do NOT remove the rear roller ( since the weight is needed) but turn the roller up by taking on bearing bolt out.
  • Page 23: Options, Turf Hold Down Kit

    Fig.12. 16.2 OPTIONS, TURF HOLD DOWN KIT. (Old set till serial number A00127) A Turf Hold Down Kit can be used when the turf is coming loose. Two kits are available for the 7316. One with fingers lining up with the 12 mm ( ½”) holes of the tine holder ( part # 9200045) and one with finger lining up with the 18 mm (3/4”) holes (part # 9200047).
  • Page 24: Options, Tines

    16.3 OPTIONS, TINES Tines are essential for the correct working of the machine. Several tines are available for this machine, see the spare part pages for a total overview. Generally speaking, tines can be divided into two categories: Solids and Hollows. We advise using genuine tines, since they are fully adapted to the machine.
  • Page 25: Hollow Tines

    Shorter (worn) tines can be used in case shallower penetration is required. The machine doesn’t need to be adjusted that much at that time. Note that the depth reading on the decal is only correct when using the full maximum length tine If oval holes are created, it means that we have a weak top layer and a hard pan underneath.
  • Page 26: Mini Needle Tines

    Fig.14. 16.4.2. MINI NEEDLE TINES. Mini Needle (solid) tines need another adapter block. The two studs D ( fig 14, right) fit a 12 mm ( ½”) hole C of the standard machine tine head. Per adapter block we have 3 rows with each 8 holes. So per block we can mount 24 mini needle tines. If a full mounted block damages the turf, reduce the number of tines, like is shown in I, II and III.
