3.2.1 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONOF THE MAIN COMPONENTS
3.2.1.1 MACHINE DRIVE – TURBINE
The turbine TCN 10 is a drive turbine of specific design with
large cross sections and minimum pressure loss. Therefore
they are also suited for high retraction speeds at very low flow
rates. They provide the energy needed for the PE-pipe
retraction. The turbine speed is directly taken off the impeller
shaft and transmitted to the change-speed gearbox.
The change-speed gearbox consists of toothed wheels that
reduce the turbine speed. Reel drive stop at the end of the
irrigation strip is ensured by disengagement of the toothed
clutch.
Removal of the drive cover for service jobs only is permitted when the PE-pipe has
been slackened completely! Move the gear shift lever to shut-off position! This shut-
off position also must be used for the transport of the machine on the roads!
