Delivery check
Check the roller for any damage. Check the hydraulic hoses for cuts and squeezing damage. Check also
that the other hydraulic components have not been damaged during transport.
Check that the frame construction has not been damaged. You should also check that the roller blocks
have not been exposed to impacts, which mayhave damaged the roller tube or the double-sealed ball
bearings.
Finally check that the transport wheel nuts are tightened and OK. Check the air pressure in the tyres:
approx. 3.8 bar/55 psi.
Machine description
Grass-Roller is a roller for consolidation of grassland. With water in the smooth steel rollers a high
weight is achieved and with that effective consolidation which guarantees an evenly pressed
grassland. This helps achieve the highest yield from the grass and good quality clean silage without
soil, stones, spores etc. With a hydr. long finger harrow in 2 rows mounted in front of the Grass-
Roller the grass can be ripped out and dead thatch can be removed or divided into fine particles.
The Grass-Roller can be equipped with Spring-Board levelling bar or molehill bar mounted on the
long finger harrow for levelling of molehills, cow pats etc., which helps avoid ingress of soil and
foreign matter into fodder when harvested. Add a HE-VA Multi-Seeder onto the Grass-Roller and
grass or other seeds can be drilled at the same time as the consolidation. This allows complete
reseeding, and overseeding or patching in existing pastures.

Safety instructions
General information
Do not start-up the machine if there are persons in exposed positions* within a hazardous area**.
When persons are in exposed positions (e.g. in connection with adjustment, maintenance, attachment
and uncoupling), the following conditions must be observed:
The machine must be lowered to firm ground.
The hydraulics must be relieved.
The tractor must be stopped and the key removed from the ignition switch.
The driver must ensure that no persons are staying in exposed positions during the operation.
* Persons in exposed positions: Any person who is staying wholly or partly within a
hazardous area.
** Hazardous area: On and under the machine within a distance of 4 m from the machine.
Most accidents that happen in connection with the operation, transport and maintenance of machines
are caused by non-compliance with the most elementary safety conditions.
Therefore it is vital that anybody working at the machine carefully complies with the safety
instructions as well as other instructions applying to the machine.
The machine may only be operated, maintained and repaired by persons, who are familiar with this
work and who are further familiar with the possible elements of danger with this particular machine.
Transport on public roads
Check before transport on public roads that the attachment of the machine at the tractor is in
accordance with the local rules and regulations in force (permitted total weight, permitted axle load,
transport width, lights, warning signs, etc.).
Front axle load
After the attachment of the machine and at maximum load, the driving properties of the tractor must be
checked. Check that the front axle is sufficiently loaded. As a minimum, the front axle load must be
20% of the tractor weight. Permitted axle load and permitted total weight for the tractor must always
be observed.
NB! The driving, controlling and braking properties are affected by the attached machine
combination.

Empty the water out of the rollers before the temperature gets
below 0 C°.
If this is not observed, our guarantee obligations will no
longer apply.
Tighten up the bolts regularly.

Operating instructions
Attachment
On delivery the roller is in transport position. At start-up the roller is attached to the tractor.
Important:
Raise the support leg and place it in the transport fittings on top of the drawbar. Now fit all the
hydraulic hoses.
The trailed model requires 1 double-acting oil outlet.
The hoses for the wheel frame are provided with red cable straps.
The hoses for the long finger harrow are provided with green cable straps. (extra equipment)
Check that the towing hook height is between
500 and 550 mm.

Settings and adjustment
Long finger harrow
The long finger harrow is raised and lowered with the hydraulic system, marked with green colour.
During work the long finger harrow can be raised and lowered as required. However, take care that
the harrow does not work too deeply, meaning that it will carry the whole weight of the roller.
The front harrow is to operate in horizontal position when the machine is in working position. This is
adjusted on the parallel rods, by loosening the nuts on each parallel rod and by tightening on the
opposite side.
Each tine can be worn approx. 200 mm. However, they will be less flexible and may need earlier
replacement.

Levelling board
The levelling board is raised in proportion to the wear and tear of the tines. This is performed by
loosening 2 nuts , the using a 19 mm spanner on the thread spindle, which determines the height
When the desired height is reached, the 2 nuts are tightened again .
Be sure that all adjusters are set the same, otherwise the levelling board will operate unevenly. This is
easily done by measuring the length of the spindle.
Roller scraper
The scrapers are bolted on the end plates. In order to adjust the scraper bar loosen the 2 bolts at the
top and push the scraper bar against the roller . Please be aware that the scraper bar is to be
placed 5 –10 mm from the roller.

Maintenance
Lubrication
Important:
After every approx. 10 working hours all movable parts. After every 30 working hours the tip
cylinder’s pins and the 3 pins in the drawbar are to be lubricated.
The bearings of the roller are to be lubricated after every 100 working hours and/or after cleaning.
Lubrication points
Important:
After the season, the roller is to be cleaned and lubricated with grease and oil.
Empty the water from the rollers to avoid frost damage.
Important:
Repairs
All repairs are to be performed with original HE-VA spare parts.
Oil, type Hydro Texaco HD32 has been filled in the hydraulic system.
The piston rods are to be lubricated with grease, for long term storage.
After every approx. 10 working hours the wheels, ball bearings and
stop rings are tightened. Hoses, fittings and cylinders are inspected
for eventual leaks and are tightened too.

UK Grass-Roller 2,9m 22/05-2018
12
Spring-Board
The Spring-Board requires 1 double-acting hydraulic outlet on the tractor. The tine angle and thereby the
aggressiveness of the tines is hydraulically controlled from the driver's cab and the depth control is done
manually. The Spring-Board tine bar is adjustable in height and thereby the working angle of the tines
against the ground is being changed. The tines work independently, but may be connected by means of a
transverse locking system (extra equipment) if a greater levelling effect is required. The change-over is
done very easily and quickly without any tools.
