5.2. Preparing rake for transport

DUO 680 In-line Rake can be quickly switched to transport position, which results in
obtaining width of 3 m, and upon dismounting raking arms and installing safety guards reducing it
down to 2.4 m.
In order to prepare the rake lifted on the tractor for transport - the following - should be done:
Set rear rotor so it is perfectly aligned with the front by means of turn cylinder (Fig. 7),
Upon switching the cylinder drive the tractor until the rear rotor is aligned with the front one,
If need be, adjust the cylinder by driving the tractor forward,
