Crate packaging Fitting the contact roller Fit the contact roller. Fit the contact roller in the support on the main frame and secure. Quantity Part Contact roller Make sure when installing the contact roller that the spring is correctly positioned. Couple the machine to the tractor and secure.
Crate packaging Coupling the hitch To couple the machine with the tractor, proceed as follows: Secure the machine against rolling away (use wheel chocks). Move the tractor into position. Secure the tractor against rolling away, shut off the engine and remove the ignition key.
Crate packaging Connecting the The hydraulic system is pre-fitted. hydraulic system Close the ball valve. Set the tractor hydraulics to “free float”. open Connect the implement's hydraulic coupling to two connections of the double-acting control device. After fitting, extend and retract the hydraulic cylinders from the end position at least 10 times in order to bleed the cylinders.
Crate packaging Fitting the running The machine is coupled to the tractor and the hydraulics are correctly connected. Observe the instructions and warnings in the tractor man- wheels ufacturer's operating manual.
