WHEEL BOLTS
It is recommended that all wheel bolts be
checked for tightness before using and again
after one day of use. Check periodically to be
sure the wheel bolts are tight.
LUBRICATION
Make sure the SoilPro 513 is properly
lubricated. It is recommended to use Wil-
RIch 460ep TIlage Lubricant in your SoilPro
513. It is specifically designed for the loads
and condidtions encountered in heavy tilage.
HYDRAULICS
Check wing lift and depth control cylinders for
proper alignment and operation. On any
machine, check that the hydraulic system has
been properly charged and purged.
FASTENERS
Loosely install all bolts connecting mating parts
before final tightening.
When tightening bolts, they must be torqued to
the proper number of foot-pounds as indicated in
the table unless specified. It is important that all
bolts be kept tight.
On new machines, all nuts and bolts must be
rechecked after a 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 are
identified by three radial lines on the head.
Grade 8 bolts furnished with the machine are
identified by six radial lines on the head.
All U-bolts are grade 5.
TIRE INFLATION
The use of proper air pressure is the most
important factor in satisfactory performance and
maintenance of implement tire. Underinflation
will damage the cord body of the tire and cause a
series of diagonal breaks in the fabric sidewall
area.
If the tire buckles or wrinkles, the air pressure
must be increased to the point where the sidwall
remains smooth while operating.
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.

WIL-RICH SOILPRO 513 OPERATOR’S MANUAL (74326) 6/11 6
TRACTOR REQUIREMENTS
TRANSPORTING
A SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle) emblem must be
used at all times while traveling on public roads.
The implement must always be placed in transport
position and the cylinder channel locks used when
traveling on public roads. Never depend on your
tractor’s hydraulic system to carry the weight
while transporting.
Note: Use extreme caution when
working around overhead power
transmission lines.
Note: Always install lock channels
in the main lift cylinders for road
transport.
Reduce speed when cornering and when traveling
over rough and/or uneven ground. Drive at a
reasonable speed to maintain complete control of
the machine at all times.
Comply with your state and local laws governing
highway safety when moving machinery on a
highway.
BEARING ASSEMBLIES
IMPORTANT: The spindle nuts on the
wheel assemblies are preset at the
factory.
Road transport and field working will seat the
bearings and will require additional adjustment.
After 20 hours of machine operation remove the
grease cap and check the bearing tightness.
Remove the cotter pin and rotate the tire while
tightening the spindle nut. Tighten until the drag
on the tire stops the rotation. Locate the cotter
pin hole in the spindle and loosen the spindle nut
just enough to allow insertion of the cotter pin.
Replace cotter pin and grease cap.
The WIL-RICH SoilPro 513 requires
approximately 22 to 26 horsepower per foot.
Three remote cylinder outlets and controls are
required.
WHEELS AND TIRES
Dual tractor rear wheels are recommended for
use with the SoilPro 513. See your tractors
operator’s manual for tire inflation and
instructions for wheel ballast where required.
METERING VALVES
The metering valve may be set to provide
varying amounts of hydraulic oil flow to the
cylinders (see your tractor operator’s manual.)
It is recommended the wing lift cylinders run
as slow as possible to prevent damage to the
implement, persons and property. Turn wing lift
hydraulics metering values to slow position.
FRONT BALLAST
Tractor front end stability is necessary for safe
and efficient operation. Therefore, it is important
that the proper amount of weight be installed on
the front of the tractor as recommended in your
tractor operator’s manual.
Note: Ballast recommendations
provide for adequate transport
stability at recommended speeds.
Additional front ballast may be
required for satisfactory field
operation due to sudden or extreme
forces on the SoilPro 513. These
forces may occur when removing
the SoilPro 513 from the ground
and turning at rows end, or during
field transport over very rough
ground.

Fig. 3 Shows a simple four (4) cylinder circuit
used to fold a pair of wings. This system is
used on Wil-Rich SoilPro 513’s with a single
pair of 9’4” or 11’8” folding wings.
When lowering the wings, hold the tractor
control lever until all cylinders are completely
extended. Fully extending the cylinders allows
the wings to flex properly in the field.
When raising the wings be sure the wing rest
is properly positioned to allow the wings to fold.
Fold the main wings until they contact the wing
rest.

CAUTION
Wil-Rich SoilPro 513 equipped with folding
wings have hydraulic wing lift cylinders to fold
the implement for road transport.
Wing lift cylinders are equipped with an integral
safety restrictor on the rod end cylinder port (see
fig. 2.) This allows the wings to lower at a slower
rate and prevents the wings from falling to fast
should there be some type of hydraulic failure.

The depth control cylinders are hooked in series.
Each cylinder is a top bypass cylinder and when
fully extended will pass oil by the piston into the
next cylinder charging the system.
Top bypass cylinders will bypass oil when the
cylinder is fully extended. This bypass condition
will exist when the implement is raised to
maximum ground clearance. At this time oil will
pass through a 1/16" dia hole and go on to the
next cylinder. See Fig. 6 & 7.
Note: This system requires periodic
raising of the unit and holding of the
tractor valve to expel air or
contaminants.

implement is raised and any air that
may be in the lines has been
expelled.

OPERATIONAL ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: Cycle the main lift hydraulic
circuit a number of times to purge air
from the circuit. Hold the hydraulic
control lever in the “RAISE” position
for a 1-3 minute period to clear air from
the circuit.
Remove the stop collars from all main lift
cylinders and turn the screw stop collars up to the
clevis end of the cylinders. Lower the unit so that
the front shovels or spikes are 1” –2” above the
ground. Measure the frame height at the front
corners from the ground to the top of the frame
tube. Compare this to the distance from the ground
to the top of the frame tube at the rear of the unit.
See Fig. 8.
Main Frame Leveling
Front to Rear
Front to rear leveling of the main frame is
controlled by the screw jack located at the front
hitch (see Fig. 8.) If the front of the unit is higher
than the rear you need to lower the front by
adjusting the screw jack to a shorter length,
lengthen the screw jack to raise the front of the
frame. Adjust jack as required, measure and
compare the front and rear frame heights and re-
adjust the jack as needed.
The preliminary operational setting of the 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 require
the use of a measuring device. Once the unit has
been properly assembled and hitched to the tractor
that will be powering the unit, make certain all
hydraulic circuits have been charged and
cycled a number of times.
Position the unit on a level surface and unfold
the wing, checking to ensure that there are no
obstructions or personnel in the path of the
wings.

Wing Leveling
Front to Rear & Side to Side
There is limited front to rear leveling that needs
to be done at this point. The only adjustments
that need to be made are to adjust the depth of the
wing relative to the main frame, referred to as
“Side to Side” leveling. With the main frame set
level, measure from the ground to the top of the
wing frame tubes on the front and rear of the wing.
Compare to the measurements set for the main
frame, if the distance is greater you need to lower
the wing.
Note: Tire removed
for clarity.

Move forward in the field at a moderate speed
and lower the unit into the ground. Stop and
measure the frame height at the rear of the main
frame. As noted in Fig. 11, the working depth is
equal to the overall height minus the frame height.
By use of the screw stop and stop collars on the
main frame lift cylinders set the desired working
depth. You may need to set a depth, pull forward
through the field, stop, check the depth and adjust
the depth a number of times. Once the rear shanks
are at the required depth measure the frame height
at the front of the main frame. By adjusting the
front hitch screw jack the hitch can be raised or
lowered to adjust the depth of the front of the main
frame and level the unit.
Once the main frame has been leveled by
adjusting the screw stop and hitch screw jack
move into the field at operational depth and stop
the unit. Measure the frame height of the wing at
the rear of the wing and compare to the frame
height at the main frame. Adjust the adjustment
bolt to level the wing to the main frame. Repeat
the same procedure for the opposite wing.
Even if the unit has been leveled in the yard, it
should never be assumed that the unit would
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 obstruction in
the wing fold area. Activate the main lift
hydraulics and remove the transport channel locks
from the main lift cylinders. Make a visual
inspection of the unit to ensure that all hardware
is properly tightened, hoses are clear and that the
unit is ready for field operation. Stop collars
should have been removed for yard adjustment and
all screw collars should be turned to the clevis end.
Cycle the main lift hydraulics a few times to purge
any air from the system.

As the main cylinder extends the oil is forced out
of the rod end and into the base end of the wing
cylinder.
As hydraulic oil is pumped into the base end
of the master cylinders, oil is forced out of the
rod ends of these cylinders to the base ends
of the first slave cylinder. The oil forced out of
the rod ends of the first slave cylinder goes to
the base ends of the next slave cylinder or back
to the tractor.
As the machine is raised and the cylinders are
completely extended, the slave cylinders will
become sequenced with the master cylinder.
Because of the varying stroke lengths the cylinder
anchor positions on the lift mast and axles is
designed to provide even rotation of the axle and
a level lift.
Synchronization is accomplished by allowing oil
to pass from the base end of the cylinder to the
rod end through a small orifice at the rod end of
each cylinder. When the piston seal passes by the
orifice (cylinder fully extended) oil passes from
the base of the BASE end of the master cylinder
to the base
SEQUENCE CYLINDER
OPERATION
This unit is equipped with a lift system that
utilizes sequencing cylinders. In a sequencing
system the cylinders are sized to operate in
series and provide a level lift to the unit. The
WIL-RICH sequencing system utilizes 12”
stroke cylinders with varying bore diameters.
On this unit the main lift cylinders have a 5”
diameter bore with a 4-1/2” diameter bore wing
cylinder.
See Fig. 12 .
The cylinders are connected in series with
hydraulic hoses. The rod end of the main
(MASTER) cylinders are connected to the base
end of the wing cylinders. Because of the rod in
the main cylinder there is less volume in the rod
end versus the base end. The next cylinder in the
series (SLAVE) needs to be smaller because
of the less volume, hence the 4-1/2” bore.
