  • Page 6: Introduction

    The FC 855 is capable of working alone or parallel with other machines. FC 855 has a high capacity compared with other corresponding products as it uses the “UPPER CUT” system. “UPPER CUT” gives a minimum loss of power when cutting the material and thus ensures maximum utilisation of the accessible tractor power.
  • Page 7 10 times higher than the power needed to drive the pick-up unit. Only the pick-up unit can be seen from the tractor and therefore it should be released first when there is a blockage. The experienced user will be able to adapt the driving - 7 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...
  • Page 8 The power requirements are also increased when the blades are worn and the shearbar adjustment thereby changes. It is necessary to sharpen the blades and adjust the shearbar during the season. - 8 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 9: Safety

    1. INTRODUCTION SAFETY The safety of persons and machines is an integral part of JF-STOLL’s development work. However, damage can occur as a consequence of misuse and insufficient instruction. We wish to ensure the safety of you and your family in the best possible way, but this also requires an effort on your part.

  • Page 10: General Safety Instructions

    14. Never allow anybody to be on the machine during work or transport. 15. Never use the machine for other purposes than what it has been constructed for. 16. Do not allow any children to be near when you are working with the machine. - 10 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 11: Locking Of Guards

    The tractor hydraulic system should deliver at least 170 bar and the adjustable relief valve should not allow more than 210 bar. The following hydraulic outlets are necessary depending on the equipment used: Single-acting Drawbar Double-acting Hitch, adjustable (option) - 11 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 12: Connection And Disconnection

    You should always protect the skin and the eyes against oil splashes (see fig. 1-5). If, by accident, hydraulic oil under pressure hits you, consult a doctor immediately. Fig. 1-5 - 12 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 13: Adjustment

    Limit the transport speed to maximum 30 km/h if the machine has not been marked with another maximum speed limit. Always check that mechanical transport safety devices are activated before transport with trailed implements. - 13 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 14: Working

    Remember to remove the hydraulic hoses before driving away with the tractor. GREASING When greasing or maintaining the machine never let more than one person work at the machine at a time. This reduces the risk of getting fingers caught because - 14 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 15: Grinding

    Hydraulic hoses must be checked by an expert before use, and after that minimum once a year. If necessary, they must be replaced. The working life of hydraulic hoses should not exceed 6 years, including maximum 2 years of storage. - 15 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 16: Replacement Of Wearing Parts

    This heat treatment provides especially hard and ductile material which is able to withstand extreme stress. Damaged blades, blade bolts or shearbars must be replaced by original JF-STOLL spare parts to ensure safe operation. Blades and blade bolts must be checked every day during the season.

  • Page 19: Safety Decals

    Always remember to check the transport lock before transporting the machine on public road. Errors in the locking system and unintended manoeuvres may cause the machine to move to working position during transport which may result in serious machine damage or personal injury. - 19 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 27: Connection And Disconnection Of Precision Chopper

    If the pawl cannot be released the length of the wire must be checked. When driving away make sure that the trailer goes clear of the precision chopper. Please note! The machine must be lowered to the ground before the locking pawl can be released. - 27 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...
  • Page 28 Thereby it becomes easier to “pick up” the trailer from the ground without the precision chopper touching the ground. The big movement at the rear is obtained by mounting the top link low on the tractor and high on the suspension. - 28 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 29: Mounting Of Equipment

    For disconnection the cord for the hitch lock is pulled and the 3-point linkage frame is lowered until the support of the hitch is resting on the ground. Drive forward with the tractor and the precision chopper. - 29 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 32 If the movements and the marking do not correspond the wires in the assembly box on the motor(s) in question must be exchanged to obtain opposite movements. - 32 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 33: Adjustments

    You should keep the pick-up at such a height that the tines do not hit the ground and leave earth in the crop and can pick up the grass without waste. JF-STOLL recommends a distance between the pick-up tines and the ground of 15 to 20 mm.
  • Page 34 If this clutch has often been in operation, the coating of the friction discs is worn and it cannot transfer sufficient transmission. It may therefore be necessary to replace the friction discs, but remember they have to be of the same number and quality. - 34 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 35: Rotor And Roller Section

    The spring B for the serrated roller must be loosened or dismounted to get enough space. If the shearbar has been worn it can be reversed for a new sharp edge. - 35 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 43: Reverse

    IMPORTANT: If the tightening of the belt drive is not correct it can be because the bracket B which transmits the correct power from the electric motor is too tight or stuck. Disassemble the parts, clean, and grease the rocking mechanism before reassembling the parts. - 43 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...

  • Page 44: Driving In The Field

    If it is possible to influence the swathing made before chopping it is important to emphasise that regular and even swaths are optimal for the subsequent chopping and will spare the tractor driver a lot of trouble. - 44 - PIGB-138X-02 FC 855 0410...
