MAXIROLL Safety The safety alert symbol is used throughout this manual to identify important safety warning messages concerning your safety, the safety of other users or the func- tional safety of the implement. Observe all safety instructions and make them readily accessible to all users of the equipment.
MAXIROLL Hydraulic System • Before performing maintenance or repairs on the hydraulic system, lower the implement to the ground, relieve pressure in the system, turn off the engine and remove the ignition key. • Clean the hydraulic fittings thoroughly before connection. Ensure that the pres- sure is relieved in the hydraulic system before connecting the hydraulic hoses to the tractor’s hydraulic services.
MAXIROLL • All safety and warning signs and devices required by law must be displayed, mounted and tested for public road use. The driver is responsible for the correct use of lights and markings in compliance with the present Traffic Act and High- way Code of the local traffic legislation.
MAXIROLL How to Use This Manual If the order of points described under the main subject areas of the manual seems confusing or illogical, refer to the Table of Contents where all subject headings can be found. The main points of the operator’s manual are placed into five main categories: •...
MAXIROLL Application The MAXIROLL is an extra rugged roller with a special construction enabling the easy attachment of additional tillage equipment. Fig. 1 The MAXIROLL is a three-section roller in which the sections move independently of each other. Hydraulic weight transfer is standard on all models.
MAXIROLL Hitching and Unhitching Hitching Fig.2 Attach the MAXIROLL to the fixed drawbar of the tractor, positioning the drawbar eye of the MAXIROLL (A) be- tween the yoke end of the tractor drawbar. Insert the hitch pin and remove the drawbar jack stand.
MAXIROLL Adjustments and Settings The MAXIROLL is preset in the factory, but it will always be necessary to make some fine adjustments before use. Numerous adjustment possibilities make your MAXI- ROLL more versatile and allow you to obtain optimum performance from the imple- ment.
MAXIROLL Adjusting the middle section Fig. 4 With MAXIROLL in an unfolded position (see “Operating and Driving Instruc- tions”), check if the bolts (A) is touch- ing the tube (B). This control must be made with the MAXIROLL attached to the tractor. And after the drawbar end bracket hitch is adjusted for the towing tractor.
MAXIROLL Operating and Driving Instructions Proper operation is essential for optimum performance of your MAXIROLL. Proper operation concerns both the carrying out of tillage operations in the field as well as the following of safety precautions. Make sure that you have a thorough under- standing of all safety precautions.
MAXIROLL Folding If the Crackerboard is mounted, it must be fully raised to the top position before folding (see ”Options, Crackerboard, Operating and driving instructions”). Fig. 10 1. Activate wing fold cylinders (marked: red) to the fully extended position, so that the outermost ends of the wing sections (A) are raised.
MAXIROLL 1. With the roller in an unfolded position, relieve the pressure in the wing fold cylinders (marked: red). Activate the lever for the wing fold cylinders in the opposite direction. Fig. 13 2 After a moment, a reading will be displayed on the manometer.
MAXIROLL Travel speed A working speed between 6-10 km/hour is recommended, but always drive accord- ing to conditions. When travel speed is increased, wear on the implement is increased, especially un- der dry soil conditions. Damage to the discs may also result from driving too fast under unfavourable conditions.
MAXIROLL Troubleshooting Problem Cause Action Too much pressure • Insufficient weight • Activate the lever of the hydraulic on middle section transferred wing fold, so that more pressure is wing sections transferred to the wings (see ”Oper- ating and Driving Instructions”). •...
MAXIROLL Options Your MAXIROLL can be equipped with optional equipment, depending on individual needs. • Crackerboard Crackerboard The greatest advantage of the Crackerboard lies in the fact that the tines can move independently and thus flex individually in response to counter pressure from land contours.
MAXIROLL The working depth of the Crackerboard is hydraulically adjustable. The tine angle is adjusted manually by means of the spindles (A). The sides of the spindles are marked with numbers to facilitate uniform angle adjustment. The tine angle will remain set regard- less of the depth, since the tines are mounted in a parallelogram formation.
MAXIROLL The Crackerboard can be mounted at the factory, but it can also be delivered at a later time if needed. A crane or similar equipment is required for mounting. Fig. 17 1 Unfold MAXIROLL. 2 First mount the middle section to the flanges (A) of the drawbar.

MAXIROLL Mounting Mount the locking kit to the backside of the tines with wearing points, using longer bolts. The tines are fastened together with a fastening plate (A), that is held together with pins (B). Side 24...
MAXIROLL Maintenance Proper maintenance ensures a long life for the MAXIROLL and also optimum perfor- mance from the implement. To facilitate maintenance, grease fittings have been mounted on those locations where wear on the equipment is the greatest. Tighten all nuts, bolts, hydraulic fittings or any other fastened assemblies after the first workday.
MAXIROLL Adjustment Adjusting the rings After the first season, the rings will have worked themselves loose on the axle. By moving the collars on the axle the rings can be pushed together, eliminating the slack. The easiest way to adjust the rings is with the MAXIROLL in a folded position. Fig.
MAXIROLL Hydraulic System Inspect all hydraulic hoses for chafing or leaks. Check hoses for pinching. To avoid rust, any projecting piston rods should be coated with oil or grease if the MAXIROLL is to be parked for a long period of time. Remember to remove the oil or grease prior to operation.
MAXIROLL Replacements and Repairs Safety is important in connection with all repair work on the MAXIROLL. The follow- ing safety precautions and the precautions listed in the beginning of this manual must be observed. Before performing any adjustments, maintenance or repairs on the machinery, always unfold the MAXIROLL and lower the implement to the ground or secure in transport position, set the tractor brakes, turn off the engine and remove the igni- tion key to avoid unintentional operation.
MAXIROLL After mounting the cylinder, activate the wing fold cylinders until the piston rods begin to move in the cylinders. Next, activate the cylinders in the opposite direction until the cylinder is back in the starting position. Move the cylinders several times in this way.
MAXIROLL Assembly 1. Assemble the new seals (pos. 5+6+7+8+9) into the gland and the sleeve. Make sure the seals are facing in the correct direction. 2. Lubricate the screw threads on the gland (pos. 3) and the cylinder casing with oil.
MAXIROLL Replacing tilting cylinder seals Fig. 27 1. Empty the oil from the cylinder by carefully moving the cylinder back and forth. 2. Move the piston to the middle position. Unscrew the gland (pos. 3) from the cyl- inder casing (pos. 1). (A special tool is needed to remove the gland). If the gland is stuck, it may help to warm up the very front of the socket.
MAXIROLL Changing Crackerboard depth adjustment cylinder Fig. 28 1. The MAXIROLL must be unfolded and rest- ing on the ground. 2. Lower the Crackerboard and relieve the pressure in the hydraulic system. 3. Disconnect the hoses from the cylinders. 4. Remove the bolts, split cotter pins and the pins (B).
MAXIROLL Assembly 1 Assemble the new seals into the gland and the sleeve. 2 Lubricate the screw threads on the gland (pos. 3) and the cylinder casing (pos. 1) with oil. 3 Mount the gland (pos. 3) onto the piston rod. 4 Mount the sleeve (pos.
MAXIROLL Assembly 1. Mount the outer rings of the bearings (pos. 17+18) into the hub (pos. 22). 2. Position the seal (pos. 16). 3. Place the inner ring of the bearing (pos. 18) onto the axle (pos. 2) and mount the axle into the hub. 4.
MAXIROLL Mounting of axle with roller rings. 1. Place the axles with roller rings and bearings in a position that is similar to that of the MAXIROLL when it is unfolded and resting on the ground. 2. Unfold the MAXIROLL and carefully tilt down to the axle. 3.

MAXIROLL When mounting the axle with bearings, make sure to position the bearings with the grease fittings facing towards the back, enabling easier access for lubrication and protecting them from stones. Make sure that the roller rings are positioned tightly against each other and check the direction of rotation of the Crosskill rings.
MAXIROLL Scrapping The MAXIROLL must be unfolded. It is important to remove the pressure in all cylin- ders. When dismounting/mounting components, always pay attention to the weight of the part that you are about to handle. It is important to support or secure the part so that it cannot fall.
