GENERAL INFORMATION
Before lowering the wings
for the first time, make sure
the entire system has been
charged with oil.
With wings down always
install hydraulic cylinder
channel lock(s) for
transporting.
Just before and during
operation be sure no one is
on or around the
implement.
Before activating the
hydraulic system, check
hoses for proper
connections.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE

FASTENERS

When tightening bolts, they must be torqued
to the proper number of foot-pounds as
indicated in the table unless specified. It is
importantthat all bolts bekepttight.
Onnew machines, all nuts and boltsmust be
recheckedaftera few hours of operation.
When replacing a bolt, use only a bolt of the
same grade or higher. Except in shear bolt
applications, where you must use the same
grade bolt. Bolts with no markings are grade
2. Grade 5 bolts furnished with the machine
areidentifiedbythreeradiallinesonthehead.
Grade8boltsfurnishedwith the machine are
identifiedbysixradiallines on the head.
AllU-boltsaregrade5.
TIRE INFLATION
The use of proper air pressure is the most
important factor in satisfactory performance
and maintenance of implement tire. Under
inflation will damage the cord body of the tire
and cause a series of diagonal breaks in the
fabric sidewall area. Check the noted
operatingpressure not on the side ofthe tire.
Ifthe tire buckles or wrinkles,theair pressure
must be increased to the point where the
sidwallremains smooth whileoperating.
Check the air pressure every two or three
weeks and do not allow the pressure to drop
to a point where buckling or wrinkling of the
tire may be possible.
Note: Do not inflate tires beyond the
specified tire pressure.

Main Frame Leveling
Front to Rear
Front to rear leveling of the main frame is
controlledbythe adjustment screw located at
the front lift wheels (see Fig. 8.) If the front of

shorten the main lift tube. Turn the screw
clockwise to lower the front of the unit or
counterclockwise toraise the frontofthe unit.
Measureandcomparethefrontandrearframe
heightsand readjust the screw asneeded.
Set both front lift wheel adjustment screws to
the same relative length. Check the front and
rear measurement on each side of the main
frame and readjust as required. Once set,
secure with a jam nut. The level may need to
be checked in the working position and
readjustedasrequired.
Thepreliminaryoperational settingofthe unit
can be completed in the yard or a level area
of a field. Final front to rear and side to side
adjustments must be made at operational
depth.
PRELIMINARY SETTINGS
Proper preliminary and field settings will
requirethe use of a measuringdevice. Once
the unit has been properly assembled and
hitchedto thetractorthat will bepoweringthe
unit, make certain all hydraulic circuits
have been charged and cycled a number
of times.
Positionthe unitona levelsurfaceand unfold
thewing, checking to ensure that there are
no obstructions or personnel in the path
of the wings.

Evenif the unit hasbeenleveled in the yard,it
should never be assumed that the unit will
operate level in the field without checking or
adjustments. Changing field conditions,
loading of the shank and attachments will
impact the functional level and working in the
field.
Move to the field and stop the unit in a level
area. Unfold the wings; making certain that
there is adequate room, with no person or
obstructioninthewing fold area. Activate the
main lift hydraulics and remove the transport
channellocksfromthemainliftcylinders. Make
