Swather with „MULTITAST“ system
Turning joint (1)
The rotary units are not seated on rigid bearings, but in a turning joint (1).
Feeler wheel (2)
Using the feeler wheel enables the tines to attain optimum ground adaption
(6°) even on extremely uneven surfaces.
As the tines are located quite close to the feeler wheel they are able to follow
the uneven ground optimumly. The result is very tidy raking.
EUROTOP 650 multitast
Using the machine without the feeler wheel (2)
Particular operating conditions require that the feeler wheel (2) be
removed.
• When working without the feeler wheel (2) the turning joint of the rotary
unit must be fixed. Otherwise the rotary unit will tip down and the tines
will then dig into the ground.
However ground adaption with a fixed turning joint is no longer optimal. For
this reason, this type of operation should be avoided as often as possible.
Fixing the rotary unit:
• Aline both rotary units as parallel as possible on even ground.
• Mount plate „3“
- hexagonal screws M12 x 30
- washers 13 / 30 x 5
• Remove (2) feeler wheel
Converting to normal operation (machine operation with feeler wheel (2)):
• Lower both rotary units onto even ground
• Fit feeler wheel (2)
• Remove plate „3“

Swather without „MULTITAST“ system (special design EUROTOP 650 / 800... - Bj. 1999)
Machines with this special design are factory-equipped accordingly for this operation.
- The rotary units are rigidly seated (1)
- The feeler wheels (2) do not exist
- The running wheels on the rotary units are positioned forward (4)
Conversion to the „MULTITAST“ system is not provided for with these machines. Expenditure for this would be too great because the complete
central unit of both rotors must be dismantled, for example.

GBOPERATION
Important points befor starting work
(see supplement-A1 points 1, 2, 3 and 4)
Safety hints
1. Turn p.t.o. on.
Turn the p.t.o. on only when all safety devices (coverings, protective
aprons, casings, etc.) are in proper condition and attached to the
implement in the correct protective positions.
2. Switch-on the machine only in working position and
do not exceed the prescribed power take-off speed (for
example max. 540 rpm).
A transfer, which is located near the gear, advises which p.t.o.
speed your machine is equipped for.
P.t.o. speed
- P.t.o. speed max. = 540 rpm
The most favourable p.t.o. rpm is about 450 rpm.
- Should the forage be pulled back from the swath into the raked
strips (untidy operation), then the p.t.o. rpm is to be reduced.
- Tractor's lower link (U) must be set so
that there is no sideways play in order
to prevent tedder from swinging back
and forth.
Turning manoeuvre in working position
The outer rotors can be swung up (pos. H1) using the single action
servo-valve (ST). The drive must not be turned off for this.
Caution!
Do not enter rotor area while driving motor is
running.
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.
- In order to obtain tidy raking operation, the rotor must be as horizontal
as possible. A very slight inclination forward is allowed.
- The tine height is adjusted using the crank handle (8). Tines should
lightly touch the ground. An adjustment that is to deep will dirty
the forage or damage the turf.
- Check adjustment regularly during work operation.
Setting the feeler wheel
• Select the smallest possible gap between feeler wheel and tines
(A) and tidy raking will resultat.
- insert the bolt in the relevant position according to feeder
mass
- then tighten the bearing bar, free of play, with the hexagonal
screw (SK).

Take care when turning on slopes!
The tractor's travelling characteristics are
influenced by the weight (G) of the rotor
unit. This can lead to dangerous situations,
especially on slopes.
Danger of tipping occurs
• when the rotor units are in a raised position
- The rotor unit facing uphill is always raised first
which results in uneven weight distribution (G).
• when travelling in a curve with the rotor units raised
TD 33/97/1

TD 33/97/2
Safety
advice
• Reduce speed
in curves accor-
dingly.
• It is better to
travel in reverse
on a slope than to
carry out a risky
turning mano-
euvre.

MAINTENANCE
Take Note!
Check the shaft
gap at least once
per year
• In normal operation the gap (A) should be approx. 1
mm. If shaft play (W) is greater then it can be corrected
with washers
• If the
gap (A) is greater than 4 mm then change the
bushings (B) on the inner side of the tine arms. Otherwise
consequent damage can occur to the machine.
Tine arms
Spring tines
• Check the spring tines fastening bolts after the first 10
operating hours and tighten if necessary
From the 2007 model *
An additional spacer (U) will be fitted on the outer tines
