    Vibration during work Machine not stable on the ground Drop machine fully on the ground. Reduce working depth Use other thinner tines Machine out of balance Check crankshaft timing Rear wheels slip During work Too wet Too undulated Not enough weight on machine. Use spring force from second rod alongside hydraulic cylinder.

  • Page 19: Disassembling The Engine

    13.7 Disassembling the engine. For several reasons, the engine may need to be removed, like changing V-belts and checking the main clutch inside. Hereunder a detailed description is made for doing it the right way. 13.7.1 Preparation. To prepare for disassembling the engine, or having a closer view at some of the inside items, it is important to understand the right setup of the construction.
  • Page 21 lot 8 in the drive shaft end connects the drive shaft with the hydraulic pump. Be sure they line up with each other when assembling. The stud with slotted hole can be replaced. The hydraulic tank 10 has the hydraulic pump inside. Contents should be app. 7 ltr (2 gallon). The tank assembly does not have to be removed, other than when the bearing 4 or the hydraulic components inside tank 10 needs to be checked.
  • Page 24: Main Clutch Details

    13.7.3 Main clutch details When the engine with main shaft is removed (see chapter 13.7.2), we have full access to the drive shaft. Some notes, see Fig.15.: The main shaft 6 has to be fully pushed on the crankshaft of the engine. When it lays against the collar of the crankshaft, the shaft is locked with clamp 1 and 14.
  • Page 26: Main Clutch Pedal Adjustment

    Fig.17 13.9 Main clutch pedal adjustment. The main clutch can be operated by the foot pedal 8 when sitting on the unit, or with lever 6 when walking in front of the unit, see Fig 17. Don’t use the lever 6 for activating the clutch when sitting on the unit. Lever 6 can be locked in gap 7.
  • Page 27 When tines are new, they may disrupt the turf, specially when the root system is weak. Clean the tines first by hand or use the machine for 10 minutes at another rough area. If the rootsystem is weak, don’t try to break the soil much deeper than the root system. Adjust the working depth till the penetration is about 75 mm (3”) more than the root system depth.
  • Page 28: Hollow Tines

    14.0.2 Hollow tines. With hollow tines, the soil can be exchanged. Different sizes are available, see the spare part manual. The side outlet should face to the rear of the machine. It is important that the tine angle is set a 90 degrees with hollow coring tines. The tine motion in the ground is minimum and we create a nice clean hole.
  • Page 29: Core Collector

    14.3 Core collector. For the 7007 Verti-Drain an identical core collector is available as for some other Verti-Drain models, see figure 20. The partnumber for the full kit is 211.700.006. It only fits when the rear roller is on (chapter 14.2), because we need the supports and the weight of the rear roller. The fine clean blade springs 3 can be mounted with bolts and nuts 2 to the main support 1.
