Setting of clevis connection Setting of clevis connection
Standard on some models ANSI
for the US and an option for
other countries.
In order to connect machines
in compliance with ISO 6489-3,
the following shall be observed:
• Tighten the bolts for the brackets
on both sides equal and turn
back afterwards until you reach a
play of 0,5-1 mm (1/32“ - 1/16“)
on each side.
• Check the PTO length.
• (A) Distance between the P.T.O.
shaft and the connection point on
the drawbar tongue: approx. 356
mm (14”).
• (B) Height between the P.T.O.
shaft and the connection point on
the drawbar tongue: approx. 203
- 305 mm (8 - 12”).
• (C) Height between the ground
and the drawbar tongue: approx.
400 mm (15 3/4”).
Connecting to the tractor; basic start
• Keep the correct side up = bolts
in the top and brackets pointing
upwards!

• Standard for most of the models
and countries.
• Swing the lower link crossbar to
the side or remove the lower link
crossbar.
• Adjust the tractor's lift arms to the
height shown.
• Tighten the tractor's stabilizer
chains.
• Check the PTO length.
• Check if the mechanical safety
valve is open.
• This valve has to be used for
transport over the road and
during maintenance “under” the
machine
• The tractor must be fitted with 2
sets of double acting hydraulic
outlets, which are connected as
follows:
•Xfor the drawbar for steering unit
to the right or to the left (Hoses
with small diameter)
•Y for lifting and lowering of the
cutting unit.(Hoses with big
diameter)
Connecting to the tractor; basic start
Y
• For lifting and lowering of the
cutting unit use always double
acting and be sure that the
cylinder is extended completely.
• Never use float position!

Choice of 540 and 1000 rpm
X
From the factory the machine is
adapted to tractors that run at 1000
RPM on the PTO.
The swivel gear's rpm can be
checked by observing the gear's
pivot joint.
Check the swivel gear in the
following way:
• Observe the gear's profile in the
middle of the swivel gear.
• If the swivel gear's profile on the
lower part of the swivel gear is
wide, the machine should be run
at a rotational speed of 1000rpm.
• Force the corners of the lock
plate away from the bolt heads.
• Remove the bolts shown on both
sides of the transmission.
• Remove the transmission.
• Remove the bolts shown on both
sides of the transmission.
• Remove the bracket.
Preparation RPM. swivel gearbox
• If the swivel gear's profile X on the
lower part of the swivel gear is
narrow, the machine should be run
at a rotational speed of 540rpm.

Choice of 540 and 1000 rpm
• Fit the bracket.
• Fit the bolts on both sides of the
transmission.
• Tighten all bolts to a torque of
225 Nm (165 ft/lb).
• Force the corners of the lock
plate back in against all the bolt
heads.
• Fit the PTO’s shafts
Note; check the oil levels!
After this change there will be a
too high level in the top gearbox
and a too low level in the bottom
gearbox.
• Fit the transmission.
• Do not forget the lock plate.
• Fit the bolts on both sides of the
transmission
• Tighten all bolts to a torque of
225 Nm (165 ft/lb).
• Fit the adapter.

** * Repositioning gearbox Repositioning of gearbox
• Rotate the transmission 180
degrees.
• Remove the air release plug and
the oil plug and switch them over
by using a suitable sealant on the
tapered threads of the plugs.
• Remove the adapter for the PTO
shaft.

Bleeding of the clutch
• To be done when starting the
machine the first time or after a
prolonged period without use.
• Tighten all bolts on the friction
clutch.
• Fit and tighten the PTO shaft fully
on the drawbar.
• Loosen all the bolts on the
friction clutch.
• Block the cutter bar by placing a
wooden block between the two
cutting discs.
• Start the tractor and connect the
tractor's PTO outlet.
*Let the friction clutch rotate
freely for approx. 5 seconds at
the lowest possible speed, until it
is warm to the touch.
• Do not allow the friction clutch to
rotate for more than approx. 5
seconds at a time, as this may
damage the friction discs.
