OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT
Unfold the wings and lower the unit to the ground,
and relieve hydraulic pressure before attempting to
service any hydraulic component.
4. Transport locks are provided to hold the implement in
a raised position. Do not attempt to perform any
service work under the implement without first
installing the transport locks. Before servicing any
hydraulic component, unfold wings and lower the
implement to the ground to relieve all system
pressure. If a hydraulic component is disconnected,
repaired, or replaced, it will be necessary to purge
the system of air before operation. See "Hydraulic
Lift System" on page 4-3 and "Hydraulic Fold
System (2211-13 & -15 Models Only)" on page 4-4
on how to purge the hydraulic systems.
Unfold wings before doing any type of service or
repair to the fold cylinders or hydraulic lines
supplying oil to the fold cylinders. The wings will
naturally unfold if the oil pressure is relieved,
thus allowing wings to fall to the ground.

Transport

1. Check and follow all federal, state, and local
requirements before transporting the Disc Chisel.
2. The Disc Chisel should be transported only by a
tractor required for field operation. The implement
weight should not exceed more than 1.5 times the
tractor weight. Unless noted on the implement,
maximum transport speed is 20 mph for the
implement. Slow down when driving on rough roads.
Reduce speed when turning, or on curves and slopes
to avoid tipping.
3. A safety chain is provided with the implement to
insure safe transport.
a. The safety chain should have a tensile strength
equal to or greater than the gross weight of the
implement. The chain is attached to the lower
hitch clevis hole with two flat washers between
the clamp plates to assure a tight connection.
Always use a 1" diameter Grade 8 bolt for this
connection.
b. Attach the safety chain to the tractor drawbar
(See Figure 4-13.) Provide only enough slack in
the chain for turning. Do not use an intermediate
chain support as the attaching point for the chain
on the tractor. Do not pull the implement by the
safety chain.
c. When unhitching from the tractor attach the hook
end of the chain to a free link close to the hitch
clevis for storage. This will keep the hook off the
ground, reducing corrosion and keep the hook
functioning properly.
d. Regularly inspect the safety chain for worn,
stretched, or broken links and ends. Replace the
safety chain if it is damaged or deformed in any
way.
