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.
Connecting hydraulic system to the tractor
Release rope
- Run rope (S) into tractor cabin.
Lowering implement
1. Stopcock opened (position E/E2)
2. Engage servo-valve (ST).
Implement is lowered slowly to the ground.
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.

Adjust distance (X = 120 mm) by turning threaded
spindle (1).
Important!
- The distance (X) between drive shaft and
linkage drawbar should be at least 120 mm
when in working position.
- Working position means that implement is
lowered and trailing wheels (3) are on the
ground.
- Distance (X) adjustment is made by turning
threaded spindle (1).
- Correct adjustment is when rotor tines lightly
touch the ground.
Pay attention to rotor inclination also (see chapter
"Operation").
Caution!
Do not enter rotor area while driving motor
is running.
Both bolts are normally always unpinned (position E).
In so doing, wheel supports are not rigidly bedded and
wheels can adapt to uneven ground.
If wheels are not required e.g. with boundary tedding, then
wheel supports can be pinned in the uppermost position
of pivoting range.
Raise wheel supports.
Pin wheel supports with bolts (position V).

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 upper link (9)
adjustment regularly during
work operation.
Adjustment to implements
with pivoting drawbar:
- Adjust implement using tractor's hydraulics so that spring
tines lightly touch the ground (see chapter "Adjustment of rotor
inclination" also).
Setting lower
link:
- Tractor's lower link
must be set so that
there is no sideways
play in order to prevent
tedder from swinging
back and forth.
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.
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.
- All work in the immediate area of the rotors may only be carried
out when the p.t.o. is switched off.
- Choose the speed of travel so that all crops are picked up
thoroughly.
- In cases of overloading, shift down one gear.
- Lift three point follower machine before going around sharp bends
and when reversing.
Beware! implements with three-point-linkage
Machine swings automatically back to central position
when lifted and is locked into position. 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.

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 of a single runner wheel on machines without central adjusting
equipment
- Press down the adjusting lever (7).
- Swing the wheels to the right or to the left.
- Lock the adjusting lever into the desired position.
2.) Swinging the runner wheel hydraulically on machines
with central adjusting equipment
- Open stopcock (position E with two-way stopcock).
Position E1 when using a three-way stopcock (see also chapter
"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.
3.) 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.
.OTE
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.

Anti-vibration braces
Anti-vibration braces bring about quiet machine running during operation.
Remedy for noisy machine running
Spring washer tension and friction element (R) pressure on the pressure can be altered by
turning hexagonal nut (SK).
Turning manoeuvre in working position
Implement with three-point-linkage:
- Raise implement using tractor's hydraulics.
Hydrolift (optional fitting for machines with three-point-linkage)
If implement cannot be lifted high enough using tractor's hydraulics (position H1) then optional fitting Hydrolift
can be fitted. Outer rotors can then be swivelled up to stop position (H2) using the servo-valve (ST).
Attention! The order of operation must be adhered to.
When converting to transport position (manœuvring on the field):
- Firstly, using the servo-valve (ST) swivel
the outer rotors up until they stop (H2).
The implement must now be standing on
the ground on the two centre wheels.
- Only now can the whole implement be
raised using the tractor's lifting gear.
When converting to working position (tedding position):
- Firstly, lower the whole implement to the
ground using the tractor's lifting gear.
The implement must stand on the ground
on the two centre wheels with the outer
rotors still swivelled up (H2).
- Only now can the outer rotors be swivelled
down into the working position using the
servo-valve (ST).
Machines with pivoting drawbar
- Operate servo-valve (ST).
Outer rotors are raised only to stop position (H2). Pivoting drawbar is simultaneously activated
through hydraulic cylinder, both middle rotors are then raised and through this, the load is taken
off the wheels.
- Implement's weight rests only on chassis's wheels.

- Close stopcock (position A).
- Unhitch machine from tractor.
- Remove hydraulic cables.
Maintenance and servicing
In order to keep the machine in good condition even after a longer
period of operation, please observe the following notes:
- After the first hours of operation, tighten all
screws.
In particular the tine connections (12 kpm), the tine bar connections
(9 kpm) and the slewing headstock connections should be
checked.
- Always keep the stipulated air pressure in the tyres.
- Grease the lubrication points in accordance with the regulation (see
lubrication schedule).
Grease the lubrication nipples with universal grease after every 20
hours of operation.
- Before leaving the machine over winter, oil all the joints well and
grease all bearings.
Intake transmission
The intake transmission runs in oil which must
be renewed or added to after every year of
operation:
- Pour gear lubricant oil into
the intake transmission (see
enclosure on fuel regulation).
Changing tines
- Remove broken tine after loosening the hexagonal nut and fit new
tine.
- For correct fitting observe the direction of the rotors!
- Tighten hexagonal screw with 12 daNm (= 12 kpm).
- Bj. 2001: Fit the safety shackle correctly (longer side (6) outside)!
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
specialist.
In order to reduce or increase
the pressure in the gas container
a special filling and checking
device is necessary.
