    This is a standard roller, designed for rolling and levelling ploughed and sown areas. Rolling is intended on farming areas where better soil compaction is needed and to avoid the soil to dry out by extreme dry conditions. Rollers equipped with crackerboard is able to level ploughed areas with a perfect re- sult.

  • Page 18: Settings

    Settings The drum is factory set at delivery, but fine tuning will always be necessary before use. Many different adjustment options make your drums more versatile and enable optimal use of the machine. In order to achieve uniform pressure on the ground, the draw-bar must be adjusted correctly for the tractor concerned.
  • Page 19: Driving And Operation

    Driving and operation Proper operation is important in order to get optimal performance from your drum. This applies to both work in the field and in terms of safety. It is therefore crucial that you have thoroughly read the safety precautions that cover the machine. Unfolding and folding Unfolding and folding are conducted with the tractor in parked position Unfolding...

    Folding Fig. 10 1. The foldable and unfoldable cylin- ders (A) (marked: Red) are acti- vated so that it is as short as pos- sible. Fig. 11 2. The tilt cylinders (marked: White) are activated to full length and the drum is tilted away from the ground.
  • Page 21: Driving Speed

    Driving speed It is recommended that the machine is driven at 6-10 km/h, and always in compliance with weather conditions. If speed is increased, wear will also increase, especially under dry conditions. There is also a risk of damaging the rings by driving at excessively high speeds under ad- verse conditions.

  • Page 26 Fig. 19 7 Mount the hoses according to the diagram shown in the “Hy- draulic diagram” section. 8 The hoses are fastened to the hose holders (arrow) (not all hose holders can be seen in the figure). It is important to ventilate the system thoroughly in order to prevent personal injury. For this reason, the cylinders should be moved straight out into the outer positions a couple of times.
  • Page 27: Connection With Towing Eye

    Connection with towing eye Fig. 20 The drum is connected to the tractor’s fixed drawbar, where the towing eye (A) should be be- tween the tractor’s drawbar. Insert a cotter key or bolt; raise the support leg and set in working position (B).
  • Page 28: Maintenance

    Maintenance Good maintenance ensures a long life for the drum and therefore optimal use of the machine. Which is why grease fittings have been installed in places where wear is greatest.  All screw connections must be tightened after the first day of work. Cotter pins and bolts should be checked to avoid breakdowns.
  • Page 29: Adjustment

    Some lubrication points most easily accessible with the machine unfolded. We recommend that the machine is placed (folded-in/folded-out) so that the lubri- cation nipples can be reached without having to go up onto the drum. Adjustment Adjustment of fittings After the first season, the fittings will have worked themselves loose on the shaft. By moving the stop rings on the shaft, the fittings can be clamped together to remove any dirt and wear can be minimized.

  • Page 31: Worn Out Parts

    Worn out parts Fig. 23 The wear parts are factory-fitted in the upper holes on the tooth. The wear slides must be moved to the lower holes (A) before wear starts to appear on the teeth. After the wear parts are worn out. Positioned in the lower holes, replace the slides so that no wear occurs on the cracker board.
  • Page 32: Replacements And Repairs

    Replacements and repairs  Safety is crucial in regard to all repair work on the drum. The following items must therefore be observed at all times, as well as all items under safety at the beginning of the instruction manual. When replacing the cylinders, always fill the cylinder with oil before subjecting it to ...
  • Page 33 After mounting, the cylinders are activated for unfolding and folding until a small amount of movement can be felt in the cylinders. The cylinders are then activated in the opposite direction until the cylinders are back in the starting position. The cylin- ders are moved in this way a few times.
  • Page 34 Replacement of the gaskets DISMANTLING: 1. Empty the cylinder of oil, (if necessary, use compressed air to move the piston back and forth to push the oil out). 2. Drive the piston to the centre position. The cap (pos. 3) is unscrewed 30 mm. If the cap is really stuck, it may help to warm up the front of the upper cap.
  • Page 35: Changing The Tilt Cylinder

    Changing the tilt cylinder Fig. 26 The drum is unfolded and lowered onto the base (working position). The pressure is removed from the tilting cylinder (A). 1. The hoses are disconnected from the cylinder. 2. The cylinder is supported. 3. The cotter pins in the rivets are disconnected while the rivets are uninstalled. 4.

  • Page 39: Removing/Mounting Wheels On The Road

    Removing/mounting wheels on the road To remove a wheel on the road, hoist the drum with a strap and crane (A), or car jack (B) as shown in the pictures below. Make sure, that the car jack has a secure stand and the implement is connected with the tractor.
  • Page 40: Replacing The Bearings

    Replacing the bearings Fig. 31 1. The hub cap pos. 21 is removed. 2. The cotter pos. 20 is removed. 3. The castellated nut pos. 19 is re- moved. 4. The axle pos. 2 can now be removed. 5. The bearings pos. 17+18 are re- moved.
  • Page 41: Dismantling The Drum Body

    Dismantling the drum body Perform repairs on a flat surface with the drum connected to a tractor and unfolded with the rings resting on the ground. It would be very helpful to have a crane or some- thing similar available for both the dismantling and assembly. Replacement of the drum body on the side sections If no crane is available, both axles on the side sections must be removed to prevent the drum from overturning.
  • Page 42: Replacement Of The Centre Drum Body

    Replacement of the centre drum body Fig. 33 1. Loosen the bolts (A). 2. The tilt cylinder is activated, the drum is tilted towards the wheels, the drum rings support the base and the bolts are loose. 3. Remove the bolts. 4.
  • Page 43: Disposal

    Disposal The drum must be unfolded. It is crucial to release the pressure from all the cylin- ders. With disassembly/dismounting, attention should be directed towards the load on the part in question. It is therefore important that this part be supported or lifted, to avoid risk of collapse or overturning.
