be released automatically in the low position! • Never leave the driver's cab while driving! • Driving behaviour, steering and braking ability are influenced by mounted or trailed machines and ballast weights. Therefore, ensure sufficient steering and braking ability! • When cornering, take into account the wide overhang and/or the flywheel mass of the machine! •...

Hydraulic system • The hydraulic system is under high pressure! • When connecting hydraulic rams and - motors, make sure that the hydraulic hoses are connected in the prescribed manner! • When connecting the hydraulic hoses to the tractor's hydraulics, make sure the hydraulics on both the tractor and the machine are depressurised! •...
WARNING STICKERS General information LEMKEN VarioPack 110 Plus features all the equipment that is necessary to ensure safe operation. If hazardous areas could not be completely secured with respect to operational safety of the machine, warning symbols are affixed which indicate these residual risks.

NOTICE! Risk of crushing! NOTICE! Do not remain in the working and swivel range of the machine! NOTICE! Do not remain in the folding range of the machine!
+/- 10 ° in the catch hook. If the catch hooks are not straight, the swivelling ability is reduced accordingly. Lifting gear control If VarioPack 110 Plus is used directly mounted to the tractor, the tractor's hydraulics must be switched to "float position" for field work! Control units A double acting control unit is required on the tractor for the hydraulic folding device.
Lower and top links The category of the three-point linkage must be the same on the machine and the tractor. If the category does not correspond, either the three-point linkage of the tractor must be adjusted or the cross shaft and, if necessary, the top link pin must be replaced with category-compliant versions.
How the minimum front ballasting and the increase in the back axle load are determined is described in detail below: = weight of front ballast (front machine) = front axle load of the tractor without mounted machine T = tare weight of the tractor = back axle load of the tractor without mounted machine G = machine weight...
ATTACHING AND DETACHING Attaching - Switch the hydraulic system of the tractor to position control for attaching the machine, which is always folded out and parked! - Connect the lower link (A3) of the tractor to the cross shaft (A0) and secure it! - Connect the top link (A4) ensuring the connection point on the machine is higher than...
FOLDING IN AND OUT Folding in The lateral sections (K0) of the machine must be folded in prior to transport. The lateral sections may be folded in and out only when the machine is mounted on the tractor. The hydraulic rams (K1) of the folding device must be connected to a separate double acting control unit.
Folding out The machine may only be parked when folded out. - Before folding out the lateral sections (K0), the shut-off valves (K2) must be opened and the machine lifted fully. Unlock the control unit of the tractor and switch to the pressure position = fold- out position.
SETTINGS Pressure load on the roller By turning the top link (A4) longer or shorter, the pressure load on the roller (W0) can be increased or reduced. Turn the top link longer = greater pressure load. Turn the top link shorter = less pressure load.
Levelling type harrow The working depth of the levelling type harrow (S2) can be adjusted with the aid of the pins (S1). The pins (S3) are used to adjust the angle of the levelling type harrow to the ground. The pins (S4) prevent the levelling type harrow from...
USE IN COMBINATION WITH A LEMKEN SOIL CULTIVATION MACHINE When the VarioPack 110 Plus is mounted on a semi-mounted soil cultivation machine, the hydraulic three-point linkage of the soil cultivation machine must be switched to float position. To further increase reconsolidation of the soil, the weight of the trailer can be transferred to VarioPack.
Grease piston rods with an acid-free grease * Inspect the hydraulic hoses at regular intervals. Replace the hydraulic hoses with genuine LEMKEN hoses at the latest six years after the date of manufacture. Replace porous or defective high-pressure hoses immediately! * Check whether the screws are fitted correctly after 10 operating hours and then after every 20 operating hours and re-tighten them, if necessary.

Checking the fluid grease of the bearings − Pay attention to cleanliness when changing the fluid grease. − Properly dispose of drained fluid grease. − Do not mix fluid grease with other oils, water or greases. Note: The fluid grease is a long-life grease. Check the level and condition of the fluid grease annually at each bearing: •...

• Remove the filler screw (2) and the sealing ring (1) from the filler opening (3). • Carefully rotate the bearing until some fluid grease escapes. If normal looking fluid grease escapes, it does not have to be changed: • Insert the sealing ring (1) and tighten the filler screw (2) to 75 Nm.
INFORMATION FOR DRIVING ON PUBLIC ROADS Equip the machine with warning boards with lighting equipment when mounted to a tractor or a soil cultivation machine and being driven on public roads. The harrow tines must be covered when driving on public roads or if the harrow tines can endanger persons during transportation.
