SAFETY GUARDS
The safety guards protect against accidents and therefore ensure maximum machine
safety. EL 100 N for Great Britain are equipped with special guards (see page 23).
Fit the guard extension (1) over the
sheet metal guard (2) of the torque
limiter (see photo opposite).
Bolt both front guards (3) to the front support tube (13) ensuring that their ends
are kept as close as possible to outside of the machine.
Bolt deflectors (2, 10 and 11) respectively to front support tube (13), side gear
casing (14) and side plate (15) as shown on assembly diagram below.
1 = Thrust washer 13 x 24 x 3,2 9 = Hexagon bolt M12x50
4 = Self locking nut M 10 16 = Hexagon bolt M12x65 on housing side (14)
5 = U-bolt Hexagon bolt M12x55 on plate side (15)
6 = Spring washer M 12 17 = Hexagon bolt M12x30
7 = Hexagon nut M 12 18 = Spacer
8 = Hexagon bolt M12x35
Note : When fitting the machine with either a crumbler or a packer roller, first remove
the side guard (2). As position of the roller support arms conforms to safety
regulation, this side guard is no longer necessary and must be removed to avoid
interference.

FITTING TO THE TRACTOR
The EL 100N Power Tiller can be fitted to all tractors with a standard 3-point frame
and Cat. I or II lower link pins.
For tractors with Cat. II linkage, the lower link arms are fitted to the interior
of the attachment bracket (fig. A). For tractors with Cat. III linkage, the lower
link arms are fitted to the interior or exterior of the attachment bracket (fig. B
and C).
Cat. II Diameter 25 - 28mm Figure A L = 870 mm
(1" - 1 1/10") (34 1/4")
Cat. III Diameter 31 - 37mm Figures B and C M and N = 1010mm
(1 - 1 5/11") (39 3/4")
PTO DRIVE SHAFT
Before attaching the PTO shaft to the slip clutch flange, it is essential that both
mating surfaces are thoroughly cleaned.
Bring both components together and fix in place using the self-locking screws
provided. Tighten all the studs to a torque setting of 10 daNm at the same time making
sure that the flange is centrally seated.
AFTER THE FIRST FEW MINUTES OF OPERATION, THE FLANGE STUDS MUST BE CHECKED FOR
TIGHTNESS AND THEREAFTER CHECKED DAILY, TIGHTENING THEM WHEN NECESSARY.

-12-
After mounting the power tiller, stabilize the tractor 3-point linkage with whatever
means are recommended i.e. the bars, chains etc. Couple the PTO shaft to the tractor
(with the gear lever in neutral position).
Adjust the top link (I) length to a position where the tiller input shaft (J) is
parallel to the ground.
In this position :
- The 2 angles (K) between PTO yoke centre line and axes of the PTO sliding tubes
must be equal and not exceed 30°.
- Overlap of sliding tubes (L) must be at least 22 cm (9").
Disengage the tractor PTO shaft and lift the machine using the hydraulics.
In the raised position :
- The 2 PTO sliding tubes must not completely overlap each other ; a safety gap (M)
of 1 cm (3/8") should exist between end of sliding tube and yoke.
- Yoke angles (K) must not exceed 40°.
If above situation does not exist, proceed as follows :
- Shorten both tubes by an equal length.
- Decrease lifting height of the tractor lower link arms but ensure that there is
sufficient ground clearance under the rotor.
Repeat this adjustment each time the machine is mounted to a different tractor.
The working depth (2 to 20 cm - 3/4" to 7 7/8") should be controlled by either the
two wheels or with the two skids or with the roller which is available as optional
extra.
To avoid accidents which could be
serious, make sure that the guards are
always correctly in place and secured
with the safety chains. The safety chain
on the machine side must be attached to
the gearbox guard. All worn or damaged
guards must be replaced immediately.
A safety chain (C) is supplied with the
machine to support the PTO shaft (T) when
disconnected to avoid damage or
deterioration due to contact with the
ground.
Fit the chain (C) to hook (U) as shown
in figure opposite.

-13-
SLIP CLUTCH SETTING
The spring pressures are adjusted before delivery (L = 34 mm) to give a correct load
with a PTO speed (rotational frequency) of 1000 rpm (min-1) . The theoretical length
(L) of the springs (R) is :
- 540 rpm (min-1) :
EL 100N/230 : 33.5 mm (1 5/16")
EL 100N/255 : 32.8 mm (1 9/32")
EL 100N/305 : 32 mm (1 1/4")
- 1000 rpm (min-1) :
EL 100N/230 : 35.8 mm (1 13/32")
EL 100N/255 : 35.4 mm (1 25/64")
EL 100N/305 : 34.8 mm (1 3/8")
These figures are average settings and slight deviations can be made according to
working conditions and tractor engine rating. The springs of the slip clutch must
all be equally adjusted to a setting where the implement can operate under normal
conditions without the plates sliping. However, when extreme ground conditions are
encountered as well as obstructions, the friction plates must slip.
IMPORTANT : * When starting operation, check immediately that the slip clutch is
correctly set for the prevalent ground conditions.
* Check that working temperature remains between 30° and 40° (86° and
104°F).
Setting too light = over heating and rapid wear of the friction plates.
Setting too heavy = risk of damage to machine elements.
The setting of the safety clutch should be checked regularly. To do this, slacken
the six springs (R) and allow the friction plates to revolve for a few moments, then
retighten to the correct settings given above.
NEVER COMPLETELY COMPRESS THE SPRINGS.
Note : For easier access when wishing to adjust the slip clutch, we strongly recommend
that you firstly remove the clutch guard. Do not forget to replace the guard
after adjustment is made.
ROTOR SPEED (ROTATIONAL FREQUENCY)
The EL 100 N Power Tiller can be operated with a tractor PTO speed (rotational
frequency) of 540 or 1000 rpm (min-1) . With the gear lever, eight different rotor speeds
and a neutral position can be selected (see table page 14).
The change gear ratios, the machine must first be tilted forward to prevent any oil
loss when the rear cover is opened.

Optional (21/24 teeth)
(Set No. 120 7710)
The gearbox is fitted with a rear PTO
shaft which turns at the same speed
(rotational frequency) as the tractor
drive shaft. This rear drive shaft
should not be used to drive a secondary
machine while the gearbox is in its
neutral position (due to the risk of
gearbox damage resulting from inefficient
oil circulation).
The rear PTO shaft (1 3/8" 6 spline
profil) should not be used to transmit
more than 37 kW (50 hp).
If the rear PTO shaft is not used, always put cover (E) in place.
FITTING THE BLADES
1. STANDARD ROTOR
According to the type of work being carried out, the blades can be fitted in 2 ways:
- 3 pair formation (3 right D and 3 left G) as fitted at the factory.
- 2 pair formation (2 right D and 2 left G).
To recognise the difference between left-hand side and right-hand side blades, notice
that the cutting edge follows the direction (f) of rotation.
F = Forward direction
To fit blades helicordally, proceed as
follows :
- Always start the fitting on each flange
with the same type of blade and the same
place (opposite mark R page 12 which is
either a hollow or a chamfer).
- All blades are fitted on the left-hand
side of the flanges viewed from the rear.

-15-
2. CULTIPLOW ROTOR
On EL 100N equipped with
cultiplow rotor, blades (L)
must be fitted alternatively
to the left and right-hand
side of the flanges.
- All bolts go on the blade side and the nuts and lock washers on the flange side.
3. CULTITILLER ROTOR
The cultitiller rotor is equipped with
angled blades bolted onto supports
individually welded on the rotor central
tubing. When fitting blades, start on
the left hand side support (i.e. gearbox
side) by facing the blade cutting edge
towards the left-hand side of the
machine (viewed in the forward direction
F).
Next fit the diametrically opposite
blade by facing the cutting edge towards
the right-hand side of the machine. Keep
fitting left-hand and right-hand blades
alternatively, moving towards the right-
hand side support, ensuring that all
cutting edges always follow the direc-
tion of rotation (f).
CAREFULLY TIGHTEN UP ALL BOLTS : - 16 daNm (118 ft/lbs) for the standard rotor with
angled blades
- 22 daNm (162 ft/lbs) for the cultiplow rotor and
for the cultitiller rotor.
When the blades or spades are worn, change the complete set to avoid throwing the
rotor out of balance.
