direction of travel; parts are numbered from left to right.
This is also the basic position for defining the direction in connection with which:
- rh (rotation) = clockwise rotation
- lh (rotation) = counter or anti-clockwise rotation
- rotation around a vertical axis is defined when looking from top to bottom;
- rotation around a horizontal axis almost perpendicular to the direction of travel is defined when
looking from left ro right;
- rotation of blots, nuts, hand cranks, etc. is defined when looking fromthe position of operation.
3. Units of measurement are given both in Imperial/US and international metric units; the metric value shall
be decisive (conversion table inside fold-out page).
4. Abbreviations used are:
cw = clockwise;
ccw –counter-clockwise, anti-clockwise;
IPL = illustrated spare parts lists;
PIN* = Product Identification No. (=machine serial no.);
PSN* = Production Series Number.

ADJUSTMENT FOR SPREADING ABD TEDDING
1. Tines
Put the tines in the tedding position by moving the tine pivot shaft
(check all tines are in the correct position.)
2. Wheels
The wheels must be inthe lower or middle position, for this
operation; i.e. the machine will be in its highest position.
3. Top Link
The top link is attached in the lower hole of the hitch-frame. When
the points ofthe tines exactly touch the stubble in front of the
rotors, and the machine turns at full speed, the length of the top
link is correct. At 430 R.P.M. of the P.T.O. the tines have reached
their lowest position.
4. Swath deflectors
If required either one or both deflectors can be used to separate
the swaths. This is particularly useful when working the outsides
ofa field.
5. Locking device
Disconnect the locking device.

7
ADJUSTMENT OR RAKING AND WINDROWING
1. Tines
Place the tines in the raking position by moving the tine pivot
shaft (Check all tines are in the correct position.)
2. Wheels
The wheels must be set in the upper or middle position for this
Operation; i.e. the machine will be in its lowest position.
3. Top link
The top link is attached in the upper hole of the hitch-frame.
When the point of the tines exactly touch the stubble in front of
the rotors, and the machine turns at full speed the length ofthe
top link is correct. At 430 R.P.M. of the P.T.O., the tines have
reached their lowest position.
4. Swath deflectors
By placing the swath defectors in the position showed an equal
and fluffy swath is build.
5. Locking device
Disconnect the locking device.

8
In working position the Haybob is trailed machine with which you can make left hand turns
without troubles.
For making right hand turns it is necessary to loft the machine on the tractor linkage.
TRANSPORT POSITION
(lift the machine)
During transport the locking device is connected,
so that the machine is approximately in the centre
behind the tractor (see fig.6.) This also prevents
the machine from sideways movement.

9
RAKING 2 SWATHS TOGETHER
When you place the swath deflectors as shown in fig. 9, the swathes are laid down
close together in the first operation. These swaths are easily put together afterwards.
