Important information concerning Product
Liability.
According to the laws governing product liability, the manufacturer and dealer are obliged to hand the
operating manual to the customer at the time of sale, and to instruct them in the recommended operating,
safety, and maintenance regulations. Confirmation is necessary to prove that the machine and operating
manual have been handed over accordingly.
For this purpose,
- document A is to be signed and sent to Pöttinger,
- document B remains with the dealer supplying the machine,
- and the customer receives document C.
In accordance with the laws of product liability, every farmer is an entrepreneur.
According to the laws of product liability, property damage is damage caused by a machine and not to
it. An excess of Euro 500 is provided for such a liabilioty.
In accordance with the laws of product liability, entrepreneurial property damages are excluded from
the liability.
Attention! Should the customer resell the machine at a later date, the operating manual must be given
to the new owner who must then be instructed in the recommended regulations referred to herein.
GB Dear Farmer
You have just made an excellent choice. Naturally we are very happy
and wish to congratulate you for having chosen Pöttinger. As your
agricultural partner, we offer you quality and efficiency combined with
reliable servicing.
In order to assess the spare-parts demand for our agricultural machines
and to take these demands into consideration when developing new
machines, we would ask you to provide us with some details.

Lowering the machine frome working position.
The implement can be parked only when the running gear (Pos. A)
is lowered, otherwise danger of tipping exists!
Parking the implement
Always park the implement securely!
- use the support stand.
- Secure support stand properly.
Attention!
Do not use the feeler wheel to
park the implement!
- Use the support stand (5).
- Pull off drive shaft (GW) and rest
on support.
- Close stop cock (Pos. A)
- Disconnect hydraulic lines from
tractor.
- Remove release rope from tractor cabine.
- Remove pull rope (EL) from tractor cabin.
This prevents the unwanted discharge of the battery, e.g. during
the night.
- Disconnect appliance from tractor.

Safety hints:
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.
Note: Some of the diagrams in this operating manual are only symbolic
representations. They are useful for better explanations,
but they can differ slightly from the real situation.

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.
Do not enter rotor area while driving motor is run-
ning.
- 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 au-
tomatically 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 absorber struts.
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.
Setting lower link
- Tractor‘s lower link (4) must be set so that there is no sideways
play in order to prevent tedder from swinging back and forth.
Adjustment to implements with chassis
- Adjust implement using tractor‘s hydraulics so that spring
tines lightly touch the ground (see chapter „Adjustment of rotor
inclination“ also).
P.t.o. speed
- P.t.o. speed max. = 540 rpm
The most favourable p.t.o. rpm is about 450 rpm.

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 posi-
tion.
Clearing field edges (border tedding) to the left or to the right
Clearing field edges can be carried out by swinging the runner wheel.
