SAFETY INFORMATION YOUR SAFETY ALERT! IS INVOLVED. THIS SYMBOL IS USED THROUGHOUT THIS BOOK WHENEVER YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY IS INVOLVED. TAKE TIME TO BE CAREFUL. REMEMBER: THE CAREFUL OPERATOR IS THE BEST OPERATOR. MOST ACCIDENTS ARE CAUSED BY HUMAN ERROR. CERTAIN PRECAUTIONS MUST BE OBSERVED TO PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF INJURY OR DAMAGE.
SAFETY INFORMATION Keep signs in good condition. Immediately replace any missing or damaged signs. RECOGNIZE SAFETY INFORMATION This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this symbol on your machine or in this manual, be alert to the potential for personal injury.
TRACTOR: This operator’s manual uses the term “Tractor” when identifying the power source. W A R N I N G TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THIS EQUIPMENT, READ AND STUDY THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION. IN ADDITION, MAKE SURE THAT EVERY INDIVIDUAL WHO OPERATES OR WORKS WITH THIS EQUIPMENT, WHETHER FAMILY MEMBER OR EMPLOYEE, IS FAMILIAR WITH THESE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
SET-UP & ASSEMBLY NOTE: Determine right or left side of the Rake by viewing it from the rear. If instructions or parts lists call for hardened bolts, refer to the Cap Screw Torque Values page to identify. Assemble the Rake or check the Rake for proper assembly and adjustment. Make sure that all bolts are tightened.
TRANSPORTING TRANSPORT LOCKS There are two hydraulic transport lock valves on the rake that must be turned to the closed position during transport in case of tractor valve leakage or hose breakage. TOWING ON HIGHWAY Follow state and local regulations when towing farm equipment on public highways.
PREPARING FOR OPERATION ADJUSTMENTS There are 5 sets of holes on the adjustable hitch. In addition, the hitch can also be flipped upside down to obtain 5 more positions, for a total of 10 positions to adjust for levelness. The hitch should be adjusted so the main rake beams are level, or parallel to the ground when in the raking position.
OPERATION & ADJUSTMENTS EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN Stop the tractor engine, remove ignition key, and allow all mechanisms to stop before cleaning or working on the machine. IMPORTANT: Retighten all bolts on the rake after 100 acres as bolts can loosen up on new machinery. Re-torque rake tooth bolts after first 100 acres.

OPERATION & ADJUSTMENTS HYDRAULIC SYSTEM The rake utilizes a 2-hose hook-up with a Master/Slave cylinder system. When the rake arms are lowered, the axles rotate forward, raising the main frame for more clearance. When the rake arms are raised, the axles rotate rearward, lowering the main frame for transport.

OPERATION & ADJUSTMENTS FLEXIBILITY Rake Arm The rake has been designed that when the rake is lower on level ground, the pins of the cylinder are centered in the bracket of the rake. This allows the rake beams to flex up and down without the hydraulic cylinder restricting its motion.
OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT CENTER KICKER WHEEL An optional center kicker wheel is available. If the hay is laying out flat, the extra wheel allows you to raise the hay laying in the center of the rake out of the stubble for easier pick-up.
LUBRICATION Become familiar with all lubrication points and establish a routine to ensure complete lubrication of the rake. GENERAL INFORMATION IMPORTANT: Catch and dispose of fluid per local waste disposal regulations whenever service is performed on hydraulic components, valves, cylinders, hoses, etc. WHEEL BEARING LUBRICATION, CLEAN &...
