Machine description
Range of application
Effective stubble cultivation for a wide range of applications
Triple-Tiller is the ideal stubble equipment for small to medium-sized farms in need of a
comprehensive tool for both stubble cultivation as well as deeper cultivation (0-30 cm) e.g. in a non-
ploughed system.
All Triple-Tiller models have 3 rows of tines and a solid frame of 100x100x8mm sectional tubes with
a frame height of 85 cm.
A unique quality of the Triple-Tiller is the 25 cm row spacing, ensuring perfect cultivation and soil
loosening in all conditions. Available as trailed and three-point mounted with working widths from
3.0 to 5.0 m, the Triple-Tiller is suitable for tractors from 100 HP.
Unique tine:
The unique double-spring tine, preloaded for 455 kg, ensures an effective 0 –30 cm cultivation
of even the heaviest soil types. The standard wearing point has a unique concave design,
ensuring a fantastic ”mixing” of soil and plant residues. The 75 x 12 mm reversible and height
adjustable wearing point allows cultivation of many hectares, before it needs replacing.
V-Profile roller:
Ø600 mm roller with an optimal cutting action that leaves an ideal consolidation and –more
importantly –a weatherproof surface. The V-profile is a pressed steel, castellated ring with
shoulder profile giving aggressive clod crushing in heavy soils and even consolidation in
lighter soils. The adjustable scrapers between each ring ensure an effective consolidation of the
soil in all conditions.
T-Profile roller:
Ø600 mm roller leaves a well consolidated and mixed soil, optimizing decomposition.
The T-profile performs a perfect consolidation while carrying up the Triple-Tiller on loose and
sandy soil, making it very depth accurate. The scrapers mounted between each ring keep the
roller clean.
Square tube roller:
Ø550 mm –made of strong sectional tubes –is ideal for loose soil (not sticky soil).
An excellent depth control is achieved via this square tube roller, and the lifting requirement is
reduced on three-point mounted Triple-Tiller models.
Levelling equipment:
The bracket for the levelling equipment is mounted on the roller, making the levelling tool
independent of the harrow depth.

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:
1. The machine must be lowered to firm ground.
2. The hydraulics must be relieved.
3. The tractor must be stopped and the key removed from the ignition switch.
4. The driver must ensure that no persons are staying in exposed positions during the operation.
* Hazardous area: On and under the machine within a distance of 10 m from the machine.
** Person in exposed position: Any person who is staying wholly or partly within a
hazardous area.
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.
ATTENTION !! Rotary parts and loose clothes are a dangerous combination.
IMPORTANT !! In connection with the risk of parts falling down, it may endanger the
lives of persons staying on the base frame of the machine, when it is
operated attached to a tractor.

UK Triple –Tiller 4,0 m –5,0 m 22/05 2013

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.).
IMPORTANT:
Check that the transport locking system is down and in
place to secure the side sections.
Front axle load
After the attachment of the machine and at maximum load, the driving properties of the tractor must be
ensured. 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.
Safety and instructions on hydraulics
1. The maximum working pressure is 225 bar.
2. It is advisable to label the attachment parts at hydraulic connections between the tractor and the tool in
order to eliminate incorrect operation!
3. When checking for hydraulic leaks, use suitable safety wear (eye protectors, gloves, etc.)
High-pressure hydraulic oil may penetrate the skin and cause dangerous injuries.
In case of injury, consult a doctor immediately. RISK OF INFECTION!
5. After operating the hydraulics, lower the machine to firm ground.
Relieve the hydraulics, stop the motor and remove the ignition key.
6. Check the hydraulic hoses on a regular basis, however, every six months as a minimum due to any
cracks, wear and tear, etc. Replace any defective hoses immediately.
The life of hydraulic hoses is maximum 5 years.
New hydraulic hoses must meet the manufacturer's requirements.

Scraper
Triple-Tiller is fitted with scrapers of special steel in between the rings of the V-profile roller.
Check their centering daily, so they do not wear unnecessarily, and to ensure optimal effect. The
correct height adjustment is 1-2 mm from the bottom of the roller.

UK Triple –Tiller 4,0 m –5,0 m 22/05 2013
15
Maintenance
After the first 10 hours of operation, all bolts must be tightened,
(see torque diagram, page 9). Hoses, fittings and cylinders must be checked for possible leaks
and further tightened.
Check regularly that all bolts are tightened.
After the season all lubricating points must be lubricated, then wash and lubricate the machine.
Do not use high-pressure water directly on ball bearings. After washing it, you may spray the
machine with a rust preventive oil.
Lubrification
When lubricating, maintaining and repairing the Triple-Tiller, always lower the machine, brake the
tractor and stop the engine.
The typical lubricating points are: by the roller, spindle, side section and the arms of the roller bar. The
lubricating points must be lubricated after 10 hours of operation, and before/after cleaning in order to
drive out any water or dirt. The lubricating points are placed by movable parts, as well as by the ball
bearings and cylinders.
