Figure 9.12: Transport System 9.2.1 Converting from Field to Transport Mode – with Transport In transport mode, the pull-type is rotated into its narrowest position to comply with road width restrictions.
  • Page 178 TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 1. If tightened, loosen bolts (B) on transport latch (A). NOTE: This step only needs to be completed the first time the machine is converted from field to transport. Figure 9.13: Transport Latch 2. Clear bystanders from the area and start tractor. Do NOT operate the rotary disc pull-type.
  • Page 179 TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 4. While the light is illuminated, raise the rotary disc pull- type fully by extending the field wheel cylinders. Figure 9.15: Raising Rotary Disc Pull-Type 5. Operate the hitch swing control lever to rotate the rotary disc pull-type to the right until the cam bearing nut is aligned with the green section of the transport alignment gauge decal.
  • Page 180 TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 7. Operate the hitch swing control lever to lower transport wheels (A) and hold the lever until the rotary disc pull-type is lifted off the ground. 8. Continue to hold the hitch swing control lever so that rotary disc pull-type (B) rotates to the left and under the hitch.

Figure 9.21: Steering Lock-Out Valve Lift cylinder lock-out: Close the valve by turning handle (A) to the closed position (90° to the hose). Repeat on opposite side.
  • Page 182 TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 13. Activate hazard lights (A) on the rotary disc pull-type. Ensure all lights are working. 14. Ensure that slow moving vehicle sign (B) is visible from behind the rotary disc pull-type. Figure 9.24: Transport Mode 15.
  • Page 183: Converting From Transport To Field Mode - With Transport

    TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 9.2.2 Converting from Transport to Field Mode – with Transport In field mode, the pull-type is rotated from the narrow road position to full width field position. Steering and lift functions are operational. DANGER To prevent serious injury or death, do NOT convert the machine into, or from transport mode until all people, animals, and objects are clear of the unit’s rotational range.
  • Page 184 TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 3. Open the steering lock-out valve and the two lift cylinder lock-out valves by turning the handles to the open position. Figure 9.27: Hydraulic Lockout Steering lock-out: Open the valve by turning handle (A) to the open position (in line with the hose).
  • Page 185 TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 4. While the light is NOT illuminated, operate the lift control lever (as if raising the rotary disc pull-type) to fully extend the lift cylinders and raise the cutterbar off the transport assembly support. The carrier frame latch will automatically open.

    TRANSPORTING THE ROTARY DISC PULL-TYPE 9.3 Transport Lighting Light assemblies provide position, hazard, turning direction, and braking information. 9.3.1 Lighting – With Transport Option When the optional transport system is installed, the lights mount to the left side of the machine. The rotary disc pull-type is equipped with two bidirectional amber lights (A) that function as flashing hazard lights and turn signals.
