Do not act on gears before having stopped the engine,
disengaged the power takeoff, pulled the parking brake and
placed the machine on the ground.
CHAIN TENSION
SA, SB, SF chain, ZLL, CS chain, SP chain and HLV-HLF tillers are
equipped with chain drive.
As for SA, SB, ZLL and CS chain models, the chain tension adjustment
takes place during assembly; for eventual further regulations during the
machines’ use please contact SICMA authorized repair shops.
As for SP chain tiller, the chain tension adjustment is made through a
tightener (picture 11). Eventual excessive clearances can be regulated
by loosening lock nut A and screwing screw B to its fullest without
forcing (up to the chain maximum tension), then loosening screw B of
about two turns (thus avoiding excessive chain tension). Keeping screw
B standstill, tighten lock nut A strongly (ref. bolts and nuts tightening
table).
Picture 11
Adjustment of the chain shall be made with standstill
machine after having stopped the engine and disengaged the
power takeoff.
SIDE SHIFT ADJUSTMENT
SA, SB, SF, SD, HLV-HLF, SHV-SHF-SHE and SM-F tillers are provided with side shift.
As for SA and SB models, when a side shift is required loosen nuts A (picture 12) to make the main
frame slide as needed; tighten nuts strongly after regulation (ref. bolts and nuts tightening table).
SF and SD models are not equipped with hydraulic side shift, therefore shift can be made through
the special screw A (picture 13); for adjustment, insert crank B in trailing tang C and swing it up to
needed shift.
