Page 9: Tine Height Adjustment
FIELD SET UP To lower the tedder into tedding position engage the hydraulics for the tilt cylinder first to raise the wings off of the chassis then engage the main hydraulics to unfold the wings. Be sure that nobody is around the tedder or the tractor as the wings are lowering. The tines and arms can cause serious injury to anybody that it comes into contact with. -
Page 10: Adjustments
ADJUSTMENTS Tine Pitch Adjustments Figure 8 Figure 7 The tine pitch (the angle of the tine in relation to the tine arm) can be adjust- ed by reversing the eccentric spacer washer. The spacer position in Figure 7 will give the tine a less aggressive position as shown in Figure 8. The spacer position shown in Figure 9 will give the tine a more aggressive position as shown in Figure 10. -
Page 11: General Operation
ADJUSTMENTS Axle Adjustments The angle of the axles can be adjusted to raise or lower the whole machine. This will allow you to tilt the tedder forward more and get a more aggres- sive tedding action. The tedders are set at the fac- tory to run in the less aggressive position (shown at right). -
Page 12: Folding For Transport
Folding for Transport Do not fold for transport unless the tedder is on even ground. Folding on uneven ground can cause the tedder to tip over. When tedding, the transport wheels can swivel and are spring loaded to support the weight of the chassis. -
Page 13: Gearbox Lubrication
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE NEVER PERFORM ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS OR INSPECTIONS ON ANY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT UNLESS THE TRACTOR IS SHUT OFF AND DISCONNECTED FROM THE MACHINE. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO WORK WITH ANOTHER PERSON WHEN MAINTAINING OR SERVICING A PIECE OF EQUIPMENT. ACCIDENTS CAN BE PREVENTED AND HELP CAN BE ATTAINED EASIER WHEN ANOTHER PERSON IS AVAILABLE TO HELP. -
Page 14: General Lubrication
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE The rotor gearboxes (Figure 16) have been packed with grease at the factory and should not need to be maintained. However, they should be checked before each season to make sure the gears are still coated with a film of grease. If additional grease is needed, use several ounces of NLGI #2 gear grease. -
Page 15: Pto Lubrication
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE PTO Shaft Lubrication The radial pin clutch and the center cross in the PTO yokes should be greased every 8 hours. The plastic PTO shielding should be lubricated at all times. If the shield feels tight when it is extended and re- tracted then lubricate as necessary. - Page 16 Shown below is the wiring diagram for the 7-pin connector plug and the color code used for all Pequea equipment and trailers. The drawing is shown looking at the back side of the plug insert. NOTE: this is showing the full wiring schematic for this type of plug.

TECHNICAL Replacing the Flotation Springs The flotation springs are located inside the mounting stem of the transport wheels. (The large wheels on the chassis). These wheels are also designed to carry the weight of the chassis when the tedder is in the working mode. -
Page 18: Timing The Rotors
Timing the rotors The rotor gears are set at the factory and should not need to be serviced or retimed. However, when replacing a hexagonal drive shaft or gearbox it is necessary to time the rotors. The figures below show correctly timed rotors and incorrectly timed rotors. Figure 23: Rotors Timed Correctly Figure 23: Rotors Not Timed Correctly If something does happen that causes the gears to come out of time you can follow the steps below to... - Page 19 Use the prybar to slowly push the hex shaft down towards the outer end of the wing. The hex shaft only needs to be moved about 1.25” in order to retime the rotor. While pushing the hex shaft down, continuously turn the rotor back and forth.
- Page 20 Before re-inserting the hex shaft back through, the following two conditions must be met: 1) The spacing between the tines must be equal so that the tin from the outer wings fits in the center of the tines from the inner wing. 2) The profile of the outer hex shaft must be flat, so that it will fit back through the finger joint.
