3.1. Proper hitching and unhitching of the harrow with/from the tractor • Hitch the implement with the tractor according to the recommendations, use pins and protect the suspension pins with cotter pins. • When hitching the disc harrow, do not stay between the tractor and the attached implement. - Page 12 Fig. 3 Pneumatic diagram of BTH harrow with BTH-D drawbar: 1 – spiral wire connector (red), 2 – spiral wire connector (yellow), 3 – 40L air tank, 4 – agricultural trailer control valve, 6 – 24” diaphragm actuator, 7-8 – rubber airline, 12 – adapter, 16 – M22 tee, 19 – tank plug.

- Page 17 Fig. 11 Standard position of the activation spool in the travel position. Mode 2 – Emergency mode: When the trailer is disconnected from the tractor, an automatic brake valve connects the spring brake section of the SAHR cylinders to the tank. The oil holding the springs under tension is discharged into the tank, the spring action activates the emergency brake function.
- Page 18 Fig. 12 Port of dummy connection of the remaining coupling joints. Mode 3 – Removal of the automatic brake function: To remove the automatic brake function (if towing a trailer by a non-double-line tractor or other type of vehicle): • Press the activation spool (as in the image on the right) until it is fully extended.
- Page 19 pressure in the secondary line (SL) increases to its normal value. The valve’s normal function mode is engaged each time the operator connects the dual- line connector, turns on the tractor engine and releases the parking brake. In this situation, all emergency functions are switched on. Place the signalling device back to its travel position before turning on the tractor engine and before releasing the tractor’s parking brake.

Page 24: Preparation Of The Disc Harrow
4.1. Preparation of the disc harrow The disc harrow is usually supplied for sale in a ready-to-operate condition. Due to the limitations of the means of transport, it is also possible to deliver it in a partially disassembled condition – usually by disconnecting the roller. When preparing the unit for operation for the first time, its components (roller) must be assembled. -

Fig. 19 Main frame with automatic side extension locking mechanism. 4.4.2 Implement opening sequence Before unfolding the folding side the extensions of the machine, learn the opening sequence to perform this operation correctly. 1. First, raise the implement as much as possible to be able to fold it correctly, avoiding the risk of the folding arms snagging on the ground during movement (Fig. - Page 28 Fig. 20 Implement opening sequence: 1- raise the implement up to the maximum, 2- fold the side extensions into the “closed” position. 3. Then, after making sure that the hook of the hydraulic side extension lock mechanism allows the machine side extensions to be unlocked, proceed to open them fully (Fig.

In order to maintain a constant stable position of the roller (working depth) during operation, latches are fitted on the cylinder piston (Fig. 24). Initially, set the roller and the wheels above the lower disc edge at the height corresponding to the approximate working depth, and adjust the position during operation, after taking into account the roller recess.
- Page 31 Fig. 26 Correct way to place the first (1) latch on the cylinder piston rod to adjust the implement working depth. Fig. 27 Latches fitted incorrectly on the cylinder piston rod. If the latches are partially omitted from the cylinder, the forces acting on the piston rod are not evenly distributed and may cause the piston rod to buckle, resulting in damage to the entire piston assembly.

Page 32: Rules For Transporting The Harrow On Public Roads And Lighting The Implement
4.5. Rules for transporting the harrow on public roads and lighting the implement According to the road traffic safety regulations (Regulation of the Minister of Infrastructure of 31 December 2002, Journal of Laws No. 32 of 2002, item 262) – a unit consisting of an agricultural tractor and an agricultural implement hitched with the same must meet the requirements identical to those applying to the tractor itself. - Page 33 Fig. 28 Front and rear light systems and their position. Clean the implement from soil residues and check the lights before transporting it. After lifting the machine, check the ground clearance under the lowest working elements, which should be at least 25 cm. The permissible transport speed of the tractor and implement is 15 km/h.

However, if this is not possible, check the condition of the protection from time to time and supplement the grease washed away by the rain, if necessary. Operation of the driving system of the BTH with drawbar BTH-D Regular checks of tyre pressure. If air leakage in the tyres is considerable, check tightness of the air valve. - Page 37 Hydraulic system maintenance Maintenance of the hydraulic system consists in visual inspections for leak tightness. Remember to insert pins into quick-fit connectors. If there is an oil leakage from connections of hydraulic hoses, the connector must be tightened. If the oil leakage is not remedied, replace the component or the hose with a new one.

Page 39: Storage Of The Disc Harrow
CAUTION Disconnect the unit from the tractor before performing any disassembly activities. CAUTION! During repairs and maintenance, the implement must be lowered on the ground and be resting on supports ensuring full stability. The tractor engine must be stopped. During repairs and maintenance, use proper spanners and safety gloves. -
