Assembly Instructions
It is very important that your new 2000 Series Row Crop
Cultivator be properly assembled, adjusted and
lubricated before use. Illustrations to assist with the
assembly process are provided in Section 2, “Standard
Specifications”. They show proper shank, disc gang
and mounting bracket spacings. Illustrations in this
section show proper assembly procedures. Remove paint
from grease fittings. Replace any grease fittings that are
damaged or missing. Be sure to return screws, clips, etc.,
to their original locations.
To insure alignment of assemblies, leave the nuts loose
until completion of final assembly. Use split lock
washers or flat washers as specified. Spread all cotter
pins.
After completion of final assembly, tighten all nuts
evenly to prevent misalignment, distortion or binding.
Tighten all screws and nuts to the recommended torques
shown in Tabl e 2- 1.

Assembly Preparation
1. Hook up the cultivator to a tractor using the
three-point hitch. Raise the cultivator about 36" and
place stands under the main frame to prevent
accidental lowering.
To prevent accidental lowering:
1. All hydraulically elevated equipment must be
locked out using the cylinder lockouts:
2. Lower equipment to the ground while servicing
or when it is idle.
Failure to take measures to prevent accidental
lowering may result in serious personal injury or
death.
Be sure to bleed the hydraulic system of all air in
lines after installation. Failure to bleed the system
of all air can result in permanent equipment
damage.
Coulter blades are extremely sharp. Exercise
extreme care when working on or near disc
blades. Do not allow discs to roll over or fall onto
any bodily part. Do not allow wrenches to slip
when working near disc blades. Never push
wrenches toward disc blades. Do not climb over
machine above disc blades. Failure to stay clear
of disc blade edges can cause serious personal
injury or death.
Do not attempt to lift heavy parts (such as the
frame, disc gangs, rock shaft, and pull hitch)
manually. Use a hoist or a fork lift to move these
parts into position.
Never stand under or near the hydraulic folding
wings during folding or unfolding operations. The
wings can drop very quickly resulting in serious
injury or death to anyone under or near the
cultivator wings.

IMPORTANT
See Figure 3-1 and Table 3-1 for parts names. When
assembly is done, tighten all fastening hardware to
the torques listed in Table 2-1 and Table 2-2. Tighten
u-bolts evenly to show an even amount of thread on
both legs of the u-bolt.
1. Assemble the base of each cylinder to a cylinder
base mount. Secure each with a clevis pin and the
hairpin clips that come with the cylinders. Be sure the
cylinders are set with the hose ports on the top when
installation is done.
2. Assemble the rod end of each cylinder to the top of
the inner hinge arms. Secure each with the clevis
pins and the hairpin clips given with the cylinders.
3. Install the hydraulic manifold mounting bracket on the
upper leg of the left-hand U-bolt on the center tool
frame (See Figure 3-1.)
4. Assemble the hydraulic manifold to the manifold
mounting bracket using bolts and nuts provided (See
Figure 3-1.)
5. Insert Hose B with a 90° fitting to the base end of the
left-hand cylinder. Insert the other end to the bottom
hole in the left-hand side of the hydraulic manifold.
6. Insert Hose A with a 90° fitting to the rod end of the
left-hand cylinder. Insert the other end of the hose to
the top hole in the left-hand side of the hydraulic
manifold.
7. Insert Hose D with a 90° fitting to the base end of the
right-hand cylinder. Insert the other end to the bottom
hole in the right-hand side of the hydraulic manifold.
8. Insert Hose E with a 90° fitting to the rod end of the
right-hand cylinder. Insert the other end of the hose
to the top hole in the right-hand side of the hydraulic
manifold.
9. Insert coupling Hoses C (2 hoses supplied - 48" long
on all models, coupler fittings are owner supplied) to
the holes in the front of the hydraulic manifold.
Connect the coupler fittings to the tractor.
10. Lift the cultivator clear of the stands. Leave the
stands under the main frame bar to prevent
accidental lowering.
11. Cycle the wing fold through several cycles to
completely charge the hoses and cylinders with
hydraulic oil. The hydraulic system must be free of air
to keep movement of the wings in control during
folding or unfolding. Add oil as needed to the tractor
hydraulic system.

1. Place the base of the lift assist wheel frame against
the main frame bar, straddling (on both sides of) the
center tool frame assembly. Secure the assist wheel
using the mounting brackets, 5/8-11 X 3 hex head
cap screws, lock washers, and hex nuts that come
with the lift assist wheel (See Figure 3-8.)
2. Coupling hoses are to be owner-supplied. They
should be long enough to allow lifting or lowering of
the cultivator without stretching the hoses. Be sure to
set the hoses so not to interfere with the operation of
the cultivator. Once set, secure the hoses with tie
wraps.

An escaping hydraulic oil under pressure can
produce enough force to penetrate the skin,
causing serious personal injury. Before applying
pressure to the system, be sure all connections
are tight and that lines, pipes, and hoses are not
damaged before disconnecting lines, be sure to
relieve all pressure. Hydraulic oil escaping from a
very small hole can be almost invisible. Use a
piece of cardboard or wood, not your hands, to
search for suspected leaks.
If injured by escaping hydraulic oil, see a doctor
at once. Serious infection or reaction can develop
if proper medical treatment is not administered
immediately.
