(picture 2). Mounting on the tractor The Swath Wilter SV-2500 is mounted on the tractors 3- point hitch and the PTO is mounted after this. It is very important to check the length of the PTO in both...
Picture 3 Starting the machine The machine is lowered on the wheels (picture 3) which is adjusted to the needed raking height. Fine adjustment of raking height is done on the top link. The support leg is raised. The swath deflectors are adjusted to proper swath width.
Fitting the belt drive The pulleys must be flush, and the shafts must be parallel. Correct in-correct After approx. 10 – 20 min. driving, the V-belt must be retightened, the belts must max. could be pressed 15mm per meter in span. If the belt is defective it must be replaced. If the belt is new, you must retighten sometimes, this can contribute to the belt lasting longer and you avoid downtime.
Power transfer Poor power transfer may be due to: a. Fitting the belt drive incorrectly. b. Dirt, oil, grease, paint and rust on belts and pulleys. Oil and grease on the discs can be washed off with mineral spirits, benzene, trichlorethylene, tetra chlorocarbon and the like. Oil and grease on ordinary V-belts will eventually dissolve the rubber.
Picture 6 Storage Before the machine is stocked for the winter, the machine must be cleaned and greased properly. V-belts must be loosened, and swath deflectors must be dismounted (take less space). The machines are equipped with a lifting eye (picture 6) in each side for lifting and storage.
