Dear Farmer You have just made an excellent choice. Naturally we are very happy and wish to congratulate you for having chosen Pöttinger. As your agricultural partner, we offer you quality and efficiency combined with reliable servicing. In order to assess the spare-parts demand for our agricultural machines and to take these demands into consideration when developing new machines, we would ask you to provide us with some details.

ATTACHING TO THE TRACTOR Hydraulic connection There must be at least one double action and one single action hydraulic connection available on the tractor. Connecting hydraulic system to the tractor - Only connect hydraulic system to the tractor when stopcock is closed (position A).
ATTACHING TO THE TRACTOR Initial attachment to tractor Safety hints: see supplement-A1 points 7.) 8a. - 8h.) Procedure: 1. Attach shaft to tractor´s linkage drawbar Important! The tractor linkage drawbar must be movable (A-B) - Left and right lifting struts (4) must be of equal length. 2.
ATTACHING TO THE TRACTOR Preparations for initial operation Important! 1. The working position means that implement is lowe- red and rotor tines are lightly touching the ground (A1) 2. The distance (X) between drive shaft and linkage drawbar should be at least 120 mm when in working position (standard).
ATTACHING TO THE TRACTOR Distance (X) adjustment (from 2004 model) 1. Attach machine to tractor and bring to working position (see above). 2. Swing lever (H) up (90°) 3. Turn threaded spindle accordingly. MULTITAST system (Optional extra) - see chapter ”THE ”MULTITAST” SYSTEM” also For machines without ”MULTITAST”...
TRANSPORT POSITION Driving on public roads (M) • Observe the official regulations of your country. • Travelling on open roads may only be carried out as described in chapter "Transport position". • Swing machine to central position (M). • Close all hydraulic circuits (A). •...
TRANSPORT POSITION Changing to Transport position Safety hints: Pos. 1 see supplement-A1 points 7.), 8a. - 8h.) • Changing from working position to transport position is only to be carried out on even, firm ground. • For safety reasons, turn off drive shaft and wait for rotor to stop completely.
WORKING POSITION Working position Stand clear of implement's swivel range. Conversion from transport to working position Changing from working position to transport position is only to be carried out on even, fi rm ground. 1. Stopcock opened (position E). 2. Make sure that swivel area is free and that nobody is standing in the danger area.
WORKING POSITION Preparing for operation Caution! 1. Install all tine arms onto both rotors. Do not enter rotor area while driving motor is • Place tine bearers onto rotor arms and secure with linch pin. running. 4. The tine height is adjusted using the crank handle Tines should lightly touch the ground.
WORKING POSITION Two single swaths or one side swath 1. Setting for two single swaths A second trap sheet can be used in this operating position (optional extra). • Swing the rear rotor to the correct position (R2). 159-02-16 2. Setting for a large side swath. In this operating position only one large swath is formed on the left side of the implement.
OPERATION Important points befor starting work General guidelines for working with the Safety hints! machine (see 1. Turn p.t.o. on. All work in the immediate area of the rotors supplement-A1 Turn the p.t.o. on only when all safety devices (coverings, may only be carried out when the p.t.o.

THE SYSTEM "MULTITAST" Swather with „MULTITAST“ system Important! General Converting to Machines with the ”MULTITAST” system have feeler wheels installed. The rotor units are therefore not rigidly fixed, but the relative can be swung up and down (approx. 4°) through hinges. operation is described on the next page.

THE SYSTEM "MULTITAST" Converting to operation Converting to operation without feeler wheel with feeler wheel 1. Remove axle (Pos. 4b) 1. Fit feeler wheel (2) 2. Remove 6 (M14 x 35) screws 3. Swivel the axle bearer around 180° to the rear (4a) and refit 2.
MAINTENANCE Safety point Parking in the ope Safety points! • Turn engine off when adjustment, service and repair When parking in the open for work is to be done. long periods of time, clean • Turn engine off piston rods and then coat when adjustment, with grease.
MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Lubrication points Symbols have been stuck on the machine at various points. FETT These indicate one or more lubrication points. • Remove cover (90) • Grease lubrication points according to lubrication chart. Gear - Change oil after the first 50 operating hours. Under normal operating conditions, oil is to be changed annually.
Page 19
MAINTENANCE Tine arms • In normal operation the gap (A) should be approx. 1 • If the gap (A) is greater than 4 mm then change the mm. If shaft play (W) is greater then it can be corrected bushings (B) on the inner side of the tine arms. Otherwise Take Note! with washers consequent damage can occur to the machine.
