    4.0 PTO. The PTO is a very important item. It drives the machine from the tractor and ensures the safe operations when correctly maintained and installed. The PTO shaft has its own CE certification. Read the PTO shaft manual, which is connected to the shaft itself 4.1 PTO LENGTH.

  • Page 9: Use Of Pto

    4.2 USE OF PTO For the correct use of the PTO, the following items need to be checked: 1. During work the angle of the joints may never exceed 30 degrees 2. The joints have to be in line all the time 3.

  • Page 10: Working Depth Adjustment

    5.0 WORKING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT The working depth can be adjusted when the machine is lifted from the ground as follows, see fig. 4: Unscrew nuts 1 at each side of the machine one turn. Screw spindle 3 in or out. Every revolution is 4 mm (0.160").

  • Page 11: Groundspeed

    @ From 90 to 75 degrees means more "kick action". This is advised for solid tines, depending on ground conditions, tine size and customer requirements. @ The angle of 90 degrees means that the tines penetrate perpendicular into the ground. This is only true if the machine is correctly set, see fig.1.

  • Page 12: Starting Procedures

    8.0 STARTING PROCEDURES The starting procedure is VERY important. If the start up is not done as described hereunder, serious damage to the machine may occur. Proceed as follows, see fig.7.: 1. Drive to the spot you want to start the operation. 2.

  • Page 13: General Usage Of Verti-Drain

    @ NEVER drive backwards, when the lowest tines are less than 120 mm (5") above the ground. If the tines get caught, serious damage will appear on the machine. @ Do not use a hydraulic top link. 9.0 GENERAL USAGE OF VERTI-DRAIN The VERTI-DRAIN can only be used when the circumstances are right.

  • Page 14: Problem Analysis

    12.0 PROBLEM ANALYSIS Machine vibrates Crankshaft rotates irregular Machine not at 90 degrees. PTO joint angles different. PTO joints not in line. Tough circumstances Adjust working depth. Use thinner/ shorter tines. If dry, irrigate first. Solid/ hollow tines Wrong tine Change tine, use shorter one.

  • Page 20: Options, Tines

    Never disconnect the hoses from tractor when machine is raised from the ground. Always ensure that machine is tight on the ground with locked rear roller supports and relieved oil pressure, before disconnecting the hoses. (see also par.11.0) When the working depth is adjusted, always reset the machine at 90 degrees with toplinks. Check bolts/nuts regularly.

  • Page 21: Hollow Tines

    If the root system is weak, don’t try to break the soil much deeper than the root system. Adjust the working depth till the penetration is about 75 mm (3”) more than the root system depth. This allows the roots to grow deeper. Next time penetrate deeper. Using this method will safe you from damaging the turf and will establish a healthy root system.

  • Page 23: Auxiliary Spring Kit

    If the area isn’t clean, check the gap between the rubber seal strip N and the blade spring tension T. Extra weight on top of the core collector may help as well. 16.1.4 AUXILIARY SPRING KIT In some cases, people want more pre tension on the draw rod springs. A complete spring kit per draw rod has the part number 211.752.004..

  • Page 24: Rear Roller Extension Kit

    When we apply too much spring force on the tines ( especially in combination with the 12 mm ( ½”)), we may destroy the hole edge, since the spring is pulling hard at the moment the tines are leaving the ground. Extra spring force is not advised for such applications. 16.1.5 Rear roller extension kit The kit 211.752.002 can be mounted at the standard rear roller supports and moves the roller further away from the moving parts inside the machine.
