Hitching of machines with three point
linkage
Safety hints:
see supplement-A1 points 7.), 8a. - 8h.)
1. Pinning the machine to the three point linkage.
2. Fix the hydraulic lower link (4) in such a way that the
machine cannot swing out sideways.
3. Push in the support foot (5) and secure.
- Before using for the first time, the length of the drive shaft
must be checked and adjusted if
necessary (see also supplement
B "Drive shaft adaption").
Locking the headstock during use on
roads and when lowering
For transport the
headstock (SB) must be
locked using a lock nut.
A = working position
B = transport position
Important!
Only reposition the lock
pin when the machine
isin the raisedposition.
Release rope
- Run rope (S) into tractor
cabin.
Connecting hydraulic system to the tractor
For reasons of accident prevention the p.t.o. must be
switched off and the rotors must come to a stand still
before raising the side rotors.
- Only connect hydraulic system to the tractor when stopcock
is closed (position A).
Note
•Hydraulic line L1 is available in every model.
•For machines with hydraulic wheel adjusting equipment it is
necessary to have a second simple functioning hydraulic
connection on the tractor. The two-way stopcock (H2) is
connected to this.
•If the tractor only has one hydraulic connection, then instead
of a two-way stopcock (H2), a three-way stopcock (order no.
445.059) and the plug (order no. 448.051) which goes with
it can be fitted.
This means any individual hydraulic circuit can be selected.
With this connection variation, the backflow choke
valve (D) may not be removed.
Position A: Stopcock closed.
Position E1: Swivelling of outer
rotors.
Position E2: Swivelling of wheels.

9600-GB ARBEITSSTELLUNG (212)

General guidelines for working with
the machine
All work in the immediate area of the rotors may only
be carried out when the p.t.o. is switched off.
Caution! Do not enter rotor area while driving
motor is running.
- Choose the speed of travel so that all crops are
picked up thoroughly.
- In cases of overloading, shift down one gear.
- Liftthree pointfollowermachine beforegoing around
sharp bends and when reversing.
Beware! implements with three-
point-linkage
Machineswingsautomatically back to central
positionwhenliftedandislockedintoposition.
Take care that the swinging machine does not
endanger anybody and does not hit solid
obstacles. When lowering the machine the
locking devise is automatically lifted.
Operating on slopes
Take note! implements with three-point-
linkage
If the implement is being raised by the lifting gear
whilst travelling in a curve, the implement swings
automatically into the central position. If working on
slopes this can lead to dangerous situations, partly
due to the balance weight of the implement.
•The function of the shock absorbtion struts is to allow
the swinging procedure to be executed slowly and
continuously, not in jerks and jolts.
Important! Pay
attention to the
appropriate
setting of both
shock
absorberstruts
Adjustment to implements with three-point-
linkage:
-Adjust length of upper
link (9) so that rotors are
inclined forward and
spring tines lightly touch
the ground (see chapter
"Adjustment of rotor
inclination" also). Check
upperlink (9)adjustment
regularly during work
operation.
Unterlenker
fixieren
- Die Unterlenker (4) des
Schleppers müssen
seitlichspielfreiverriegelt
werden, um ein Hin- und
Herschwenken des
Zetters zu vermeiden.
P.t.o. speed
-P.t.o. speed max. = 540 rpm
The most favourable p.t.o. rpm is about 450 rpm.
Tractor control device (ST)
- Put tractor control device (ST) into
"free gear" (floating position or
"lower").
In this way the rotors adapt to
uneven ground.

Clearing field edges (border tedding) to the left or to the right
Clearing field edges can be carried out by swinging the runner wheel.
1.) Swinging the runner wheel hydraulically on machines
with central adjusting equipment
- Open stopcock (position E with two-way stopcock).
PositionE1 whenusinga three-waystopcock(see alsochapter
"HITCHING").
- Operate servo-valve on the tractor.
To swing the runner wheel left move servo-valve to "lift"
position. To swing runner wheel right move servo-valve to
"lower" position.
2.) Swinging the runner wheel mechanically on
machines with central adjusting equipment
- Release locking bolts by pulling the rope (S).
- Turn the tractor wheels in the direction of the field edge and
drive forward at the same time. The machine's runner
wheels swing in the opposite direction.
- Let go of the rope (S) and make sure that the locking bolts
are correctly engaged.
Note
The slanting axles make border tedding possible with the three point machines. In this working
position the swivel area (9) is used to its full extent.
When driving around bends away from the edge of the field or at the end of the field, the machine
must therefore be lifted.
Attention!
The machine swings back into the central position (M).

- Bj. 2001: Using the tine gauge check the correct position of the
tine.
Gas container
Beware!
No welding, soldering or mechanical works of any kind
may be carried out on the container.
Note
•According to
manufacturer's
information all gas
containers have a slight
pressure drop after a
certain amount of time.
•The gas loss (nitrogen)
amounts to 2-3 % per
year.
•After 4-5 years it is
recommended that
container pressure be
checked and if necessary
corrected.
Alteration of gas container pressure
This work may only be carried
out by customer service or a

Supplement - B
1) How a cam type cut out safety clutch works:
This overload clutch switches
the torque transmitted to zero
if overloaded. To revert to
normal operation, stop the
p.t.o. drive briefly.
The clutch reengages at a
speed below 200 rpm.
IMPORTANT !
The overload clutch on the driveshaft is not a “Full up”indicator. It
is purely a torque limiter designed to protect the implement against
damage.
Driving the right way will avoid triggering the clutch too often, and
thus causing unnecessary wear on it and the implement.
2) Wide-angle joint :
Maximum angle of deflection when working/stationary : 70°
3) Standard joint :
Maximum angle of deflection
when stationary: 90°
Maximum angle of deflection
when working: 35°
Maintenance
Replace worn-out
covers/guards at once.
- Lubricate with a brand-
name grease before starting work and every 8 hours worked.
- Before any extended period of non-use, clean and lubricate
driveshaft.
For winter
working, grease
the tube guards,
to avoid them
freezingtogether.
•Important for driveshafts with friction
clutch
Prior to initial operation and after long periods out
of use, check friction clutch for proprer function.

of K90, K90/4 and K94/1 or at set screw of
K92Eand K92/4E.
b.) Loosen screws to release the pressure on the
friction disk.
c.) Tighten set screws to dimension „L“.
Clutch is ready for use.
DRIVESHAFT
Important! Only use the indicated or
accompanyingdrive shaft,otherwise
the right to claim under guarantee for
any possible damage does not exist.
Matching driveshaft to tractor
To determine the actual length
required, hold the two halves of the
driveshaft side by side.
Procedure for cutting to length
- To determine length required, set implement in closest working
position (L2) to tractor, hold driveshaft halves side by side and mark
off.
Important!
•Note the maximum
operatinglength (L1)
- Try to attain the
greatest possible
shaft over-
lap (min.
1
/

X)!
•Shorten inside and
outside tube guard
bythe same amount.
•Fit torque limiter (2) of drive
shaft to implement end of
driveshaft!
•Always check that drive shaft
locks are securely engaged
before starting work.
Retaining chain
- Usechainto preventtube guard
from rotating.
Take care that chain does not
impede driveshaft pivoting.
Rules for working
Neverexceed themaximum p.t. o.
speed when using the implement.
- When the p.t.o. is switched off,
the implement hitched up may not stop at once.
Do not go close to the implement until all motion has stopped; only
then may work be done on it.
- When the implement ist
parked, either remove the
driveshaft and store it, or
secure it with a chain. (Do not
useretainingchain(H)for this).
