Overview Pilotbox Protect electrical parts against moisture The electronic control system, pilotbox and electrical plug connec- tions must be protected against damp and penetrating moisture. Dampness in electronic devices can lead to leakage current, which results in malfunction. Using the electro-hydraulic operator control device, the pilotbox, the following functions can be selected and controlled using a single-act- ing hydraulic control device: Component overview...

Quick Set assembly Requirements • Suitable flat surface approx. 10 x 10 m as assembly space. Quick Set assembly • Lifting gear with lifting accessories for at least 1,500 kg • Floor conveyor (pallet truck or fork lift) with a fork length of at least 1,800 mm.
Quick Set assembly Coupling the lower link Follow the instructions for the quick-release coupling Follow the instructions below for tractors with quick-release couplings. Also note the instructions and warnings in the operating manual of the tractor manufacturer. If this requirement is ignored, the consequence may be damage to the machine and even life-threatening injuries.
Quick Set assembly Connections Electrical connections Inspect the electrical cables Check the electrical cables. The electrical cables must not chafe or hang loose. Electrical cables that have been torn away or worn through must be replaced. Otherwise, damage to the machine may be caused as a result.

Final assembly Hydraulics The hydraulic system is connected as far as the lift arms ex-factory. The hydraulic lines for the working depth of the rotors are only to be connected after the rotor chassis have been connected to the lift arms. ...
Final assembly Fitting the PTO The main drive PTO shaft is preassembled ex-factory. shaft Install one side of the PTO shaft for the rotor to the gear box. Connect the PTO shaft to the rotor. Secure the PTO shaft's guard tube with chains. ...
Adjustment work Length of the PTO The length of the PTO shaft was selected at the factory to suit almost Adjustment work all types of tractor. Only in exceptional cases is a correction of the PTO shaft shaft length required on individual tractors. Check the length of the PTO shaft on each tractor prior to first use.

Adjustment work Shortening the PTO shaft Pull the PTO shaft apart and connect one half to the tractor PTO stub shaft drive and the other half to the machine and secure them. Place the two shaft halves next to each other and: •...
Adjustment work Steering The steering is preset at the factory. If the factory setting needs to be modified, the lock nut must be used to secure the steering rod from being twisted. Checking the track If the machine rolls at an offset angle to the tractor when driving a straight line, the directional stability is set incorrectly.
Adjustment work Rotor pitch The rotors are inclined transversely to the chassis. The rotor is already inclined transversely ex-factory. If the crop is not picked up cleanly, the raking quality can be improved by adjusting the rotor pitch. Optimum raking quality is achieved when the tines in the front working area and in front of the crop discharge have the lowest possible ground clearance (see illustration).
Adjustment work Tine lifting The time for lifting the tines can be adapted to the crop (early or late Early Late lifting). The control cam (cam disc) can be infinitely adjusted. To do lifting lifting this, the following steps are required. ...
Adjustment work Working depth Adjust the working depth as follows: Using the tractor's hydraulic control device, fully move the machine into the work position and advance approximately 2 metres. Switch off the tractor and secure it. Check the working depth to the ground. Parking stand Working depth Rotor tines...
