  • Page 5 Safety precautions DO NOT allow anyone to stand between the tractor and the implement during coupling or uncoupling. Note that this includes stepping between the tractor and implement to operate the external hydraulic con- trols (risk of injury). Set the tractor’s hydraulic lifting system to ”position control”...
  • Page 6 Set-up Check both parts of the coupling for compatibility (cat.: tractor/ rotary harrow). Raise the tractor’s lower link to the same height and, after attachment, check for slight lateral play (secure against lateral play entirely when transporting by road). To reduce the friction on the lower link arm quick cou- plers and to prevent demage it is recommended to use bolls (5.1/1) with catching profiles (5,1/2).
  • Page 7 Operation The ”Corvus PKE/Corvex P” rotary harrows are oper- ated with a 1000-type power take-off shaft (with corre- sponding gear-change assembly - see Rotor speeds). Engage and disengage the power take-off shaft with the knife tines a few cm above ground level.

  • Page 9: Residual Risks

    PTO through drive / front-mounting The PTO through drive runs at the same speed as the tractor itself and follows all its fluctuations. Keep the safety guard in place over the implement end of the PTO drive shaft at all times. In the front-mounted position, the rotary harrow is driven via the PTO drive shaft –...
  • Page 10 Three-point linkage for secondary equipment In order to allow installation of a secondary implement in the shortest possible position, the attachment arms are adjustable (11/1). Fit the chains (11/2) and perforated rail (11/3) in such a way that the catch hooks are low enough to allow coupling - and to allow the implement to be raised sufficiently.
  • Page 11 Drill-Lift restrictor: Operation is made easier if a power shaft-driven implement can only be raised to a limited extent. Attach the chain at (14/1) in the corresponding posi- tion. Allow the chain to sag in order to advance the at- tached implement after removal of the drive shaft.
  • Page 12 Oversized outfits should be transported on a suitable low-loader. In the case of the Corvus PKE/Corvex P 3000 (road- transport width of 3 m), fold the side sections inwards. To do so, remove the nut from its bolt (20/3), then use a long-handled 17 mm ring spanner to turn the bolt- head (20/2) clockwise to remove the bolt (20/3).
  • Page 13 Maintenance Before working on the attached implement, disengage the power take-off shaft, switch off the engine and remove the ignition key. DO NOT work under a raised implement. If this is unavoid- able, secure the implement to prevent it dropping by ac- cident.
  • Page 14 Oil changes Change the oil in the oil-bath transmission after about 50 hours of initial operation; then change every 500 operating hours or every two years. Drain oil at the outlet (25/2) when warm and with the implement tilted slightly. To refill with oil, remove the rear transmission cover to access the filler opening (8/1).
