Final assembly Routing electrical Ensure that there is sufficient free space when routing electric cables: cables • Between the rear and front deflector frames, and • when routing along on the centre device. The electric lines are connected to the lighting equipment ex works. Cable loop When switching from transport to work position, check whether the loops are protected against pulling and shearing.
Final assembly PTO shaft Check the length of the PTO shaft on each tractor prior to first use. The length of the PTO shaft was selected at the factory to suit almost all types of tractor. It is only necessary to correct the length of the PTO shaft in exceptional cases.
Page 49
Final assembly Shortening the PTO shaft Precisely determine the correct length of the shaft. Shorten the guard tube. Shorten the forming tubes for the drive. The length of the two cut-off ends must be the same. Deburr and clean the cut edges of the guard tubes and forming tubes to ensure that they are smooth and clean.
Final assembly Setting up work Adjusting the working depth The clearance of the tines from the ground is adjusted in the work position via the crank. Use the tractor's hydraulic control unit to fold the machine into its Crank work position.
Page 51
Final assembly Setting the trailing If the running wheel locking mechanism is released, the wheel swings around the wheel axle. This swinging movement can be controlled by characteristic setting the wheel swing brake. To ensure smooth running of the wheels, all wheel swing brakes must be set to the same braking force before delivery of the machine.
Page 52
Final assembly Measuring the braking The braking force of the wheel swing brakes is measured using a force using the spring spring balance. The wheels must not be in contact with the ground during measuring. balance Fold the machine into its transport position. ...
Accessories Accessories Optional additional equipment does not form part of the standard Accessories scope of delivery, and, in this manual, is indicated by a plus symbol [+]. Additional equipment is available to order from your dealer. Tine saver If the tines are broken, the tine savers prevent the loose, broken part from being lost.
Page 54
Accessories Swathing gear The swathing gear reduces the speed of the PTO shaft. The crop is not spread but deposited between two rotors as a swath. Remove the existing protective pot on the central transmission. Slide the swathing gear with the protective pot onto the central transmission shaft and secure it with a circlip.
Hydraulic border tedding system The hydraulic border tedding system is not included in the standard Hydraulic border tedding system scope of delivery. Fitting can only be carried out when the machine is fully assembled. Fold the machine into its work position. ...
