Adjusting lower links

• The drive shaft (GW) position should be approximately horizontal

when mowing.

- Set the tractor's lifting gear accordingly (H1)

- Set the tractor hydraulics (ST) using the bit stop.

This height allows optimal evenness when working on uneven ground

and need not be changed for swinging cutter bar up.

- Connect hydraulic snap coupling for swivel cylinder.

Important recommendation!

A transfer, which is located near the gear, advises which p.t.o. speed

your mower unit is equipped for.

Standard: Gear for power take-off 1000 rpm.

Optional exra: Gear for power take-off 500 rpm.

Order number: spare part book

Fitting drive shaft

- Before operating for the first time, drive shaft is to be checked and

adapted if necessary. See alse chapter "Drive Shaft" in supplement

Attention!

Take care with transport positions 1, 2, 3.

Before swivelling the cutter bar up, turn

off the drive and wait for the mower discs

to come to a complete standstill.

NOTE:

The implement has been so designed that the mower

unit is positioned as close as possible to the tractor.

This has important advantages for both mowing and

transporting operations.

• The implements´s centre of gravity lies close to the

tractor and through this

- less supporting structure load

- less load alleviation of the steering axle when

transporting

- better cutter bar ground adaption when mowing

• The mower bar can be swivelled into 3 different positions

for transportation.

Safety Precaution!

see supplement-

A1 points 7.), 8c.

- 8h.)

Changing from

working position

to transport

position is only

to be carried out

on even, firm

ground.

Never let mowing

mechanism run

with the mower

raised.

Swinging cutter bar down

- Make sure that

swivel area is free

and that nobody

is standing in the

danger area.

Conversion from working to transport position

Conversion from transport to working position

- Gently raise cutter bar with swivel cylinder so that hook

(13) can be released.

- Release hook (13) by pulling on the rope (S2).

Note: Only short trips at low speed may be carried

out in this position

Variant 1:

Without hydraulic slewing mechanism

- Lower cutter bar to ground.

- Release bolt (40) by pulling

on the rope (S1) and move

forwards with the tractor.

In doing so, the cutter bar

swivels back so far until

the bolt (40) is locked into

position.

- Raise the implement using

the tractor's lifting gear.

Variant 2:

With hydraulic slewing mechanism

An additional double-action hydraulic connection is

necessary on the tractor.

A hydraulic unit is installed instead of a mechanical slewing

unit (with bolts 40). See chapter “Collision Safety”.

- Raise cutter baractuate

- Pull on rope (S2) and simultaneously actuate servo-

valve (ST).

- Gradually move cutter bar into vertical position and

release rope (S2).

- Secure cutter bar with hook (13).

- Servo-valve (ST) to O

position

Tips for transportation:

Do not move the servo-valve (ST) to the ”float” position.

The hook (13) will become very worn.

- Before driving on roads always check correct

locking!

- Connect lighting and raise implement for transport.

- Before leaving the tractor lower cutter bar to ground!

Ensure a sufficient gap (X1) !

Incombination with larger tractor types, it couldhappen

that there is insufficient gap

to the mud guard or tyre

(X1) which could then cause

a cxollision with the cutter

bar.

If this is the case, this

transport position must not

be used.

It is possible to try to move

the cutter bar further to the

right.

- Insert lower linkage bolts

accordingly (see instructions in the supplement to

this manual)

- However the total sidth must not exeed a maximum

of 3 m.

Dismount implement from tractor

Attention!

• Always

park implement

steadfast

• Use

support stand -

otherwise danger

of tipping

• Danger of injury

from crushing

and shearing

sections in

the area of the

support stand

• Follow the

instructions on

the following

page also.

Instructions

The lever 13b is a safety device. It should not be

changed in its form and functions.

The lever is so constructed that it will not spring out from

the bolt position (13b, 13a) during hydraulically slewing

of the mowing bar. The lever is thus only damaged

(deformed) but remains in the bolt position.

This has been arranged by the manufacturer – for safety

reasons.

• Do not operate the hydraulic cylinder to

slew across the mowing bar when the lever

is in the bolt position

• Exchange damaged levers immediately for

new ones.

Important!

Keep to the order of operation

1. Shift servo to floating position so that no residual air

pressure remains in hydraulic lines.

2. Let bolt (13a) rest in the hook.

- Pull the rope (S2)

- Lower mounting frame with lifting gear until the bolt

(13a) rests in the hook.

3. Move the lever (13b) to the locking position

Doing this secures the bolt (13a) in the hook

This safeguard is important!

Otherwise the danger exists that the

mounting frame of the cutter bar could

swivel up in jerks and jolts when uncoupling

the lower link

4. Bring support stand (14) into support position and

secure with linch pin

5. Lower lifting gear far enough so that implement stands

on support stand on the ground

6. Dismount implement from tractor (15)

- Uncouple drive shaft.

- Uncouple hydraulic lines.

- Remove rope from tractor cabin.

DISMOUNT AND PARKING

Support Stand

The support stand can be pinned in 4 positions

Positions 1, 2, 3: when parking the implement

Position 4: For transport and operating positions

Parking the implement on the support stand

Any position (1, 2, 3) can be chosen which enables

lifting gear to be uncoupled without problems.

Nevertheless, should a problem arise when

uncoupling the lifting gear

- park the implement on

flat, firm ground

- turn the lower link

adjusting spindle (15)

far enough so that

the lower link can be

pulled from the bolt.

Caution!

Crushing and shearing sections in the lifting

gear area.

Parking the implement

The implement can be parked in two positions (R and

H).

• Do not set the hydraulic

control valve to floating

position if the support

stand is raised.

Attention! (STOP)

The support stand should not be raised too high

- if the implement is parked in ”H” position and the

hydraulic control valve is set to floating position.

The drive shaft could thus be damaged as it is telescoped

on to the bar (0mm).

Beware!

Before

uncoupling

the lower link,

always secure

the bolt 13a with

the lever 13b.

WORKING ON SLOPES GB

Take care when turning on slopes!

The tractor's travelling characteristics are influenced

by the weight (G) of the mower unit. This can lead to

dangerous situations, especially on slopes.

Danger of tipping occurs

- when the mower unit is facing downhill and in a raised position,

- when travelling in a left-hand curve with the mower unit raised,

- when travelling in a left-hand curve in the transport position (mower

unit completely raised).

Safety advice

• Reduce speed in left-hand curves accordingly.

• Travel so that the raised mower unit is facing uphill.

• It is better to travel in reverse on a slope than to carry out a risky

turning manoeuvre.

STARTING WORK

Safety hints

1. Check:

- Check wear of blade bolt

(31).

Replace blade holder

when bolt diameter is less

than 9 mm.

- Check blade holder (30)

on damage.

- In case of grinding noises

check whether the blade

holder (30) is buckled and

therefore the blade does

not lie correctly any more.

2. Turn p.t.o. on.

Turn the p.t.o. on only when all safety devices (coverings,

protective aprons, casings, etc.) are in proper condition and at-

tached to the implement in the correct protective positions.

3. Switch-on the machine only in working position and do

not exceed the prescribed power take-off speed (for

example max. 540 rpm).

A transfer, which is located near the gear, advises which p.t.o. speed

your mower unit is equipped for.

4. Pay attention to correct p.t.o. direction of rotation!

To mow, slowly throw in the p.t.o. away from the mowing area and

bring the mowing rotor up to full speed. The travelling speed depends

on ground contours and type of forage.

5. Stay clear while engine is running

Refer people to the danger

area, the danger coming

from stones which are

 ung away. Particular care

is advisable on stoney

ground and near roads

and paths.

6. Wear hearing protection

The noise level in the workplace can deviate from the

measured value (see Technical Data) partly because of the

differing cabin types of various tractors.

• If a noise level of 85 dB (A) is reached or exceeded, the farmer

must have suitable hearing protection in readiness (UVV 1.1 §2).

• If a noise level of 90 dB (A) is reached or exceeded, the hearing

protection must be worn (UVV 1.1 § 16).

7. Damage protection!

• The surface to be mowed must be free of obstructions or foreign

objects. Such objects (e.g. large stones, pieces of wood, boundary

stones, etc.) can damage the mower unit.

In the event of a collision

• Stop immediately and switch off the drive.

• Carefully check the implement for damage.

• Have the implement checked also by a specialist workshop if ne-

cessary.

8. Safety hints (pt. 1, 2, 3, 4,) to observe in supplement A1!

Adjustment

• Adjust tractor hydraulics in a way that the machine can adapt to

uneven ground.

- The drive shaft (GW) position should be approximately horizontal

when mowing.

- Frame horizontal.

- Fix hydraulic lower links in a way that the machine cannot swing

out sideways.

Operation

1. Adjust cutting height by turning upper link spindle (inclina-

tion of the cutting discs max. 5°).

2. To mow, gradually supply power to the p.t.o. before ente-

ring the crop and bring the mowing discs up to full revs.

Smoothly increase the p.t.o. speed, in order to avoid noises in

the free-wheel conditioned by the system.

- Adjust travel speed to terrain and crop.

• The cutting height is set by inserting distance plates (4mm,

6mm).

2 of which have already been inserted (4mm, 6mm) in the

factory.

Optional equipment: 8 distance plates (6mm)

Optional equipment: high-cut mowing plate (H1)

• Each mowing drum must have an equal number of plates

inserted.

Inserting distance plates

1. Remove both skide plates (S1, 1a).

2. Insert distance plates (6mm).

3. Refit both skid plates.

Replace worn or damaged spring lock washers with new ones.

Similarly with worn screws and nuts.

CONDITIONER

Mowing with the conditioner

The conditioning effect can be modified:

- with lever (13), which adjusts the gap between adjustable plate

and rotor. The conditioning effect is most intense with the lever

at the bottom of its travel (Pos. 3).

However the crop should not be chopped.

Correct belt tension

Check X2 size
