20 - OPERATING AND USE
• Finally, the operator controls the lowering of the hay wheels (G).
At this time, the rake is ready to operate. The rake's functioning is very simple because, as it is installed on the tractor, it is dragged by it in its forward direction. In
this way, the raked wheels brush against the ground for the dragging effect, and because of the rotary movement the teeth will collect the cut forage.
The rake working configuration, as shown in figure, allows you to harvest the cut forage and collect it into a central windrow. This windrow, which can have a 6
metres width, facilitates the working process and reduces the final costs.
IMPORTANT
Remember that the tractor must proceed in a straight line. For direction changes see section D3.
Even for short stops, the operator must always:
- switch off the engine of the tractor
- engage the parking brake
- remove the key from the dashboard.
At the end of the work, put the rake into the transport configuration before moving.
