Preparation
Preparing the
machine
For transport to the user the machine is divided into main components.
The machine is assembled according to the specific assembly
instructions delivered with each machine.
The following chapter is for initial assembly and shortening of the PTO
shaft, etc. When assembling after, only the defines attachment points
should be carried out.
Initial connection of the machine
Exercise caution when a new machine is connected for the first time.
Make sure that all safety instructions are complied with.
Following the safety instructions will increase your personal safety.
Failure to follow the safety instructions may result in serious injuries
and accidents.
Swivel hitch
Checking the rpm
Maintain the rotational speed on the tractor P.T.O. outlet
It is dangerous to connect a tractor with a PTO of 1000 rpm to a
machine intended for a PTO of 540 rpm.
The machine is not designed for this speed.
It can result in damage on the machine and be a danger for persons
nearby.
The swivel gear can be switched to 2 modes, so that both rotational
speeds, 540 rpm or 1000 rpm, can be used.
From the factory the machine is adapted to tractors that run at 1000
RPM on the P.T.O. terminal.
Whenever possible, one should always aim to run the PTO outlet at
1000 rpm.
It is especially recommended that tractors with power above 70 kW
(90 hp) on the PTO outlet run at a rotational speed of 1000 rpm, as
high rpm exerts less load on the PTO shaft.
The swivel gear's rpm can be checked in 2 ways:
The swivel gear is factory-fitted with a sign that gives the tractor's PTO
shaft rpm.
• If the sign shows 1000 rpm, the machine must run at a rotational
speed of 1000 rpm.
• If the sign shows 540 rpm, the machine must run at a rotational
speed of 540 rpm.
