Adjusting the swather
Before correcting any operational
faults or carrying out any repair,
maintenance or cleaning work, always
disengage the driving system, stop the
engine and remove the key from the
ignition!
The swather is designed for a max.
PTO speed of 540 rpm.
Recommended PTO speed during
operation: 350-450 U/min.
The swather must never be driven
with a 1000 rpm PTO shaft.
4.2 Basic setting
Lower the swather slowly! Keep the operating lever for
the lower link arm in the “Lower” position or move to the
lowest position (floating position). The carrier bar guide
roller must be at the end of the three point frame guide.
Set the tractor top link so that the swather disc
is horizontal or tilted slightly towards the front and the
tines touch the ground lightly.
