1.2 Mode of operation
The twister is an interchangeable attachment that is mounted
onto a compatible main engine.
The engine of the walk-behind tractor powers the twister by
means of the hydraulics. The twister is guided forwards over the
surface along contour lines with the walk-behind tractor.
The fodder is picked up via the pick-up. Lateral transport takes
place by means of gravity pulling downhill because of the slope.
The working height is adjustable. The work performance depends
on the speed of the engine.
1.3 Name/type plate
The type plate is located on the frame of the attachment.
The type plate contains the following information:
– Manufacturer
– Name
– Type
– Device no.
– Year of manufacture
– Weight
– Max. rpm
– Spec.
– Service code (KD code)
– CE marking
The serial numbers are sequential. Every attachment has a unique
serial number.

1.4 Attachment elements
Pick-up roller

The crop is picked up and transported onto the sliding table with
the aid of the plastic tines (1) on the pick-up roller (2), which
rotates in the opposite direction to the direction of travel.
Sliding table
The crop picked up by the pick-up roller is transported onto the
sliding table and slides off to the side.
Rear panel
The rear panel prevents the crop from falling to the rear.
Quick release coupling
The attachment is coupled to and uncoupled from the machine
using the quick-release coupling on the attachment.

Removal post
The removal post is used to set down the attachment without a
machine.
For operation, the removal post is raised using the handwheel.
Attachment grille
(optional)
The attachment grille prevents large amounts of crop from being
pushed over the rear panel.
Side parts
In the transport position, the side parts are folded forward. The
crop is picked up by the pick-up roller and remains on the sliding
table. In the deflection position, the crop is kept away from the
machine by the side parts.
Gauge wheels
The gauge wheels are part of the twister chassis. The working
height of the twister can be adjusted via the position of the
gauge wheels.

Special tool
The special tool is a tool for removing crop from the pick-up
roller.
Drinks holder
A drinks holder for storing PET bottles (1.5 litres) is located on the
back of the twister.
