Cutting Unit
Important checks to be carried out on the
cutter beam before each operation
- left and right hand pins locked (E2)
- for wear on the cutters
- for dirt on the cutter overload fuse
- for adequate ground clearance (A)
Important!
Lock the cutting beam with bolts
• Position E2
- on the left and right side of the vehicle
- secure both bolts with forelock (V)
Attention!
Before any
operation check
that the pins left
and right are
locked!!
General information
To facilitate maintenance work on the cutting unit, the
cutter beam can be swung on to the left-hand side of
the vehicle.
All cutters are then accessible:
- for grinding the cutters
- for installing or removing the cutters
- for cleaning
External cutting unit buttons
For maintenance work on the cutting unit, the cutter beam
can be swung in or out using both buttons (57).
Use these buttons only when the loading channel is empty
and the press drive is turned off!
Attention!
Take care that the cutting unit is in proper working
order before swivelling it in (damaged cutters,
warped components, etc).
Advice in case of press channel blockage
Warning! When a blockage in the press channel occurs,
DO NOTusethebutton(ontheright)toswivelthecutter
bar out as this will occur under hydraulic pressure.
Remedy
- Pressandholdthe buttonontheoperatingdevice,
and at the same time switch on the p.t.o.drive.
The feed pressure of the load while cardan shaft is
running will swing the cutter beam out.
- After removing the blockage swing the cutter beam in
again.
Attention!
Increased chances
of injury with all
work carried out
on cutter bar,
particularly with
swinging cutter
bar in from the

Adjusting the cutters
• The setting should be such, that the cutters are centred
between the dovetail prongs of the press rotor.
Centring the cutters between the dovetail
prongs
1. Loosen locking nut (K)
- on the left and right-hand side of the vehicle
2. Unscrew the bolts (SK-1, SK-2) a little, on one
side of the vehicle.
If the cutter frame has to be moved to the left:
- first of all loosen the bolt (SK-1) on the left-hand
side of the vehicle
- then tighten the bolt (SK-2) on the right-hand side
of the vehicle. By loosening this bolt, the cutter
frame can be moved as far as necessary to centrally
position the cutters between the dovetail prongs of
the press rotor.
If the cutter frame has to be moved to the right:
- first loosen the bolt (SK-2) on the right–hand side
of the vehicle
- then tighten the bolt (SK-1) on the left-hand side of
the vehicle.
3. Tighten both bolts (SK-1 and SK-2) as far as they
will go.
- Do not tighten bolts excessively
4. Secure both bolts (SK-1 and SK-2) with locking nuts
(K).
Adjusting the cutter beam
• When the cutter frame is swung back in, the setting
should be such, that it enables the frame tubing to fit
into the opening on the moulded frame without any
difficulty (1)
Adjustment on the swivel axis of the cutter beam by
means of a screw (SK-4)
Setting
1. Loosen locking nut (K)
2. Turn screw (SK-4) accordingly.
When the cutter
frame is swun g
back in, the setting
should be such, that
it enables the frame
tubing to be pushed
over the slide.
- The frame tubing should slide on approximately 3mm
under the highest point (see sketch).
3. Secure screw (SK-4) with locking nut (K)
Setting for cutter beam in swing-out position

TAILGATE
Safety mechanism
The tailgate’s own weight is used to lower it to position
C. No other pressure is used.
Only when in this position (C) is the hydraulic func-
tion activated through switch (56) and the tailgate is
closed under pressure.
Unloading using dispensing rollers
Variations
1. Standard dispensing
• Rear steel section fixed to swivel frame
- secure with linch pin (F) (left and right)
2. Fine dispensing
• Rear steel section fixed to side walls
- secure with spring pin (F) (left and right)
The forage falls evenly distributed to the ground as with
standard dispensing
Warning against damage
• The bolts on the left and right hand trailer sides
must always be equally positioned otherwise the
tailgate and swivel sections will be damaged
therefore
- always check before
opening the tailgate
hydraulically
Attention!
Nobody should
be within the
swinging range
of the tail gate
when opening and
closing!
Do not stand
underneath the
raised tail gate!
Travelling on public
roads must only
be undertaken
with the tailgate
closed!
With all of these switching procedures, be
alert to the danger distances!
An example:
Danger of injury arises if a person stands
at the rear of the trailer and somebody in
the tractor cabin activates a switching
function (opening the tailgate, switch on
the driving gear, ...).
