Further Safety
Any warning signs/instructions on the machine provide important information
and must be observed.
Ensure that you are familiar with the equipment, controls and functions
before starting work.
Check round the machine for any noticeable damage, or missing parts
before starting work.
It is advisable that the operator wears close fitting clothing to avoid the risk of
snagging and trapping.
Ensure that you watch out for wandering individuals (particularly children!).
Always match your speed to the conditions and legal speed limits. Observe
and respect traffic regulations in respect to front mounted machines when
using public roads.
Remember to take into account the size of any mounted attachments to the
tractor and be aware of the sideways forces acting on the machine when
turning and negotiating corners. Always ensure adequate all round visibility.

Special Safety Instructions
Take extra care when hitching up or un-hitching the swath roller to/from the
tractor front linkage. Be aware of what is under the roller (such as your feet)
before dropping it off.
Ensure that the tractor’s hydraulic system is in full working order.
Never allow any person to stand between the tractor and the swath roller
during connection or at any time and ensure the tractor is secured against
rolling away by use of a parking brake and/or wheel chocks.
It is forbidden to allow any persons to ride or sit on the swath roller at any
time. Observers should maintain a safe distance when machine is in use.
When performing any adjustments to the machine the tractor engine must
be switched off to prevent the hydraulics from operating.
The driving characteristics of the forklift/loader/tractor are influenced and
altered by the attachment of mounted machines and it is important to
ensure adequate steering and braking ability as required.
Ensure that any items stored in the toolboxes are secured by closing the lid.
Important Maintenance
It is important to check all pins for wear and ensure that none show significant
signs of wear or damage.
Keep the swath roller clean at all times.
It is important to grease the 2 roller bearings with all-purpose grease on either
side of the roller pivot at least once weekly whilst working under normal
conditions and twice weekly under extreme use and or very dry/dusty
conditions. Any components not greased often enough are at risk of
excessive wear and possible seizing; these components therefore would not
be covered under warranty.
When machines are going to be parked up for the winter months, correct
storage methods are an important part of protecting the Agriweld swath
roller to maintain its condition and prevent future operational issues. When
you have finished work with the machine, the swath roller should be cleaned
down, washed off and stored inside to protect the paint work and
mechanical components.

Fitting Transport Box to Frame
If you have purchased the transport box option at a later date, Please refer to Fig. 2 of the
previous page.
The frame brace requires removal prior to fitting the transport box option (Fig 2). Please
follow instructions in Fig 1 to attach/detach the transport box. Always re-fit the frame brace if
you are using the swath roller without the transport box attached. (Fig2).
Remove the transport box lid (if relevant as it may already be removed). A lifting point is
situated in the base of the transport box. A lifting eye is provided with the transport box that is
fixed in position by screwing into the centre hole of the lifting point in the box floor. This will
allow for the lifting of the transport box onto the frame using a lifting strap and forklift. A
second person will be required to assist positioning the box into place. Using the new Nylocks
nuts provided with the transport box, fix the box in position (Fig 1) and ensure all fixings are
fully tightened and that you are satisfied the box is secure to the frame. Re-fit the transport
box lid before use.

Fit M12 x 35mm Fasteners through hinges
with M12 washers and M12 Nylocks as show
to the right. After the lid is fastened securely,
the lid stay can be fastened to the lid using
the M8 x 25mm bolt, M8 Washers and M8
Nylocks provided. Fasteners and stay are
assembled as shown below.

Replacing Roller Bearings
When replacing roller Bearings, drop roller down on
linkage so the weight of the roller is just sat on the
ground and place chock in front of roller to prevent
rolling after the fasteners have been removed.
Remove M16 x 55 Bolts and M16 Nylock Nuts and
lift frame off the roller allowing you to remove the
bearings off the roller shaft. Follow steps in reverse
when fitting roller back into frame. Ensure all
fasteners are tight before transporting or using the
swath roller.

CONNECTING YOUR LEDS
The swath roller is fitted with amber side marker lights as standard, however, it is not supplied
with the relevant 12-24V electrical plug which can vary, to suit the connection to your
tractor.
Please check that your LEDs are working correctly before use in the dark and especially
when in use on public roads. Please note that you are responsible for ensuring the LEDs are in
full working order before each use and this should form part of your routine maintenance
checks.
STANDARD FIXED AMBER LED SIDE MARKER LIGHTS
To connect your amber LED side marker lights, fitted as standard, you will need to
wire them up to a relevant 12-24 V electrical plug, suitable for your tractors electrical
supply.
BLUE WIRE = EARTH (NEGATIVE -)
BROWN WIRE = LIVE (POSITIVE +)
OPTIONAL AMBER LED3DV FLASHING MARKER LIGHTS:
If ordered as an extra option, the amber flashing LED side marker lights are set to pattern PA1
before delivery. If you wish to change this, you will need to work your way down the list of
patterns following the instructions below before fitting the plug and connecting to the
tractor.
1. Using the GREY wire to make the change you will need a 12V battery on hand to alter
the flashing pattern.
2. Connect the BROWN wire to Live (+POSITIVE) on the battery.
3. Connect the BLACK wire to Earth (-NEGATIVE) on the battery.
4. Touch the GREY wire once to Earth (-NEGATIVE) which will produce the next pattern
in the sequence.
5. Keep touching the GREY wire in this way until the desired pattern is achieved.
6. When happy you can fit your 12-24V plug using only the BROWN LIVE (+POSITIVE) wire
and BLACK Earth (-NEGATIVE) wire.
7. Cut excess GREY and YELLOW wires down to within the sheath to prevent further
contact.
