THE SYSTEM "MULTITAST" Swather with „MULTITAST“ system Turning joint (1) The rotary units are not seated on rigid bearings, but in a turning joint (1). Feeler wheel (2) Using the feeler wheel enables the tines to attain optimum ground adaption (X°) even on extremely uneven surfaces. As the tines are located quite close to the feeler wheel they are able to follow the uneven ground optimumly.

OPERATION General guidelines for working with the machine Safety hints - All work in the immediate area of the rotors may only be carried out when the p.t.o. is switched off. 1. Turn p.t.o. on. Turn the p.t.o. on only when all safety devices (coverings, protective Caution! aprons, casings, etc.) are in proper condition and attached to the implement in the correct protective positions.

MAINTENANCE Tine arms • In normal operation the gap (A) should be approx. 1 • If the gap (A) is greater than 4 mm then change the mm. If shaft play (W) is greater then it can be corrected bushings (B) on the inner side of the tine arms. Otherwise Take Note! with washers consequent damage can occur to the machine.
