SAFETY TRAINING
Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacturing of our product.
Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by a
single careless act of an operator or bystander.
In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and
accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence and proper
training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of this
equipment.
It has been said, “ The best safety device is an informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be
that kind of operator. It is the operator’s responsibility to read and understand all safety and
operating instructions in the manual and to follow them. Accidents can be avoided.
Working with unfamiliar equipment can lead to careless injuries. Read this manual, and the
manual for your tractor, before assembly or operating, to acquaint yourself with the
machines. If this machine is used by any person other than you, or is loaned or rented, it is
the rotary tiller owner’s responsibility to make certain that the owner's manual be available to
the operator prior to operating:
Reads and understands the operator’s manuals.
Is instructed in safe and proper use.
Know your controls and how to stop the tractor, engine, and tiller quickly in an emergency.
Read this manual and the one provided with your tractor.
Train all new personnel and review instructions frequently with existing workers. Be certain
only a properly trained and physically able person will operate the machinery. A person who
has not read and understood all operating and safety instructions is not qualified to operate
the machine. An untrained operator exposesm himself and bystanders to possible serious
injury or death.

INTRODUCTION
Turkey Rotary Disc Mover is the MOST IDEAL machine type especially for the feed plants
growing horizontally such as vetch, white clover, Lotus corniculatus and for reaping all kinds
of meadow, pasture and feed plants and wild plants with the effect of the air current formed
during the rotate of the discs.
It is driven by the tractor tail spindle and connected to it with three point hitch system. The
movement is transmitted serially through its four fold belt pulley. The machine has 4-5-6 disc
models. It has a safety mechanism against the damage which may occur if it hits a hard and
big object (tree, stone, etc). It reduces the damage to a minimum by moving backwards when
it hits an object. The Disc Mover rises up by hydraulic system. So the machine stays behind
the tractor in transport position. Grass-cutting is performed on sloppy grounds after the
machine is made suitable to the slope through the hydraulic piston. The grass that has been
cut can be picked according to the desired sizes by the direction changer part that is
connected to the rear part of the machine.
It provides a very low and high-quality cutting on the evened ground where it leaves spread
the grass it has reaped with its high-quality cutting by leaving a one-type stubble.

Firstly connect the lower non adjustable arm then adjustable arm at the end connect upper
connection arm. While disconnecting the machine, do the opposite.
Connecting the pto shaft:
SERIES 4 P.T.O shaft which has Friction Limiter Clutch is used in Rotary Disc Mowers.
Before connecting the pto, clean the surfaces of spindle and lubricate them wtih grease.
Later shift the shaft on the pto spindle until the pin fits into safely. The shifting distance must
be at least 15 cm. Take pto shaft guard in a safety position by hanger. This safety position is
for the tractor and for the rotation of fixed parts.
P.T.O shaft can only be connected when the P.T.O connection and engine are switched off
and the ignition key is pulled down.
Connect the prescribed P.T.O. shaft and secure the P.T.O shaft connection by a chain
Make sure that the P.T.O shaft is in proper position on both ends. The adjustment of the
P.T.O shaft is necessary for different tractors. To find out the right length. Shorten both shafts
and proteciton tubes for exactly the same length.
To find the right length:
Connect the machine to the tractor.
Pull out the P.T.O shaft entirely and connect each separate half of the shaft to the tractor and
compare them wih each other.
If the covering of the P.T.O shaft and P.T.O shaft does not run into the block at horizontal
position. In case you need to shorten the P.T.O shaft.Shorten the shaft in exactly the same
length.

Pic. 11 Cutting the shaft spindle for a suitable length for the tractor
Pay your attention to proper mounting and securing of the P.T.O shaft..
Make sure that nobody is in the area of danger of the implement before switching on the
P.T.O shaft connection.
After switching off the P.T.O shaft conneciton the danger of rotating heavier parts remains.
Do not get close to the implement during this period. You can start to work only when the
rotation is completely stopped.
P.T.O shaft protection must be fitted on and must be in perfect condition..
Use only original P.T.O shafts prescribed by your manufacturar. Because the manufacturer
will not take any responsibility if another shaft is used.
When the machine is taken to the farm:
Start the engine of the tractor for a minute. Hold the machine with main hydraulic arm. Attach
the security lock for not to damage to the hydraulic system while driving. Stretch the
stretching chains to prevent swinging.
Attention!
When the machine is working, don’t intervene the machine with
hand, foot, foreign tools strictly.

10
When using the road queue pin, be careful that Revolutions Per Minute depends on
tractor’s speed and turning way can’t be opposite in back movement.
In machine’s carrying position, take care of from tractor wheels, excess outside.
The movements in curves, take care of freight condition and drift mass of the machine.
It’s dangerous to work with tractor in downhill.
Still If you have to do it, take care about it and don’t turn curves so severe.
To provide a safe movement stability, to cultivate the downhill working field; take care
of fitting the tractor with sufficient addition weight.
Before starting up in farm:
Put tractor hdyraulic control arm to position control condition and make the height
adjustment.
In position control condition, when you are moving hdyraulic arm a little, tool lifts up, stops in
a level, if you move the arm again, it lifts some more and stops, namely draw doesn’t rise the
top point like in control.
Note: Hdyraulic setdown-lifting arm is lifted up and put it in a certain level.
In this condition tool and machine completely lift up, front elect arm is in “DRAW CONTROL”
If tool and machine don’t lift completely, and lift in a certain level, it’s in “POSITION
CONTROL”.
Position control condition provides the machine’s working in the field by putting tool and
machine which are depended hdyrolic connection arms in a certain height.
When you’re working with like Centrifuge fertilizer distributed machine, front election arm
must be in position control condition.
Safety Max. Input rotation speed of the Rotary Disc Mower is 540 RPM
After providing a convenient dept, the machine is taken to the field with a convenient gear it is
started up moving on and working.
Running and stopping of Hdyraulic Side Shifting Rotary Tiller is arranged only from tractor
driver place.
Rotary Disc Mower must works into the circle that has 5 m distance between itself and
people. Because in this field pieces that machine throws like stone and soil may come.
Rotary Disc Mower is worked only in flattened smoothy field.
Besides, be careful about if stone and chips exist in the field or not.
Then these strange materials is in working field, it can cause harm to machine’s cultivation
bodies, knives, and at the same time herbals and people.
Rotary Disc Mower don’t be worked in nonsmoothy fields.
Machine’s working speed is arranged only by depending working conditions.
During working with the machine, in the end of the turnings tractor queue spindle is
stopped and you wait until the machine is stopped.
Before the turnings the machine is lifted and slinged. So danger of throwing field pieces
which the machine’s got disseapears.
If your tractor which you run Rotary Disc Mower with doesn’t have a close driver cabin,
please during the working use a protection glasses and noise.
