Jumbo 10010 Combiline: 130 l/min

Hydraulic connection

Single action control unit

Should the tractor only have a single-action servo-valve,

then it is absolutely necessary to have an oil-return pipe

(T) fitted by a specialist.

- Connect pressure line (1) to the single-action control

unit. Couple the oil-return hose (2) (with the greater

diameter) to the tractor’s oil-return system.

Dual-action control unit

- Connect pressure line (1) and oil return line (2) (the line

with stronger cross section is the oil return line).

LS line (optional)

- Connect load sensing line at LS-connection of tractor.

Caution with tractors with closed

hydraulic system and LS

For example: JOHN DEERE, CASE - MAXXUM, CASE -

MAGNUM, FORD SERIES 40 SLE

ADJUSTING THE DRAWBAR

Maintenance of the traction coupling ball

In addition to the general vehicle maintenance

• grease the contact surfaces at the point of coupling

• inspect the fixing bolts of the traction coupling ball on a firm seating

• renew damaged, malformed or worn traction coupling balls

- Only allow exchanges to be carried out by specialists!

Traction coupling ball

Tip

• The traction-coupling ball may only be connected with coupling ball type 80, as produced by Scharmüller GmbH or

other approved coupling balls (80mm ball diameter).

Attention!

Repairs to the

traction-coupling

ball are not per-

mitted.

Mounting the forked drawbar

The permissible load on the coupling point should be taken from the vehicle type plate.

The permissible DC value should be taken from the drawbar type plate or tow eye type plate.

The tightening torque of the fastening bolts of the trailer coupling rings:

- M16x1.5 10.9 250Nm

- M20x1.5 10.9 460Nm

The fastening bolts must be checked at regular intervals and be retightened where necessary.

Only short distances on even stretches in a tipping situation (to unload) are permitted. Tipping slightly (during travel)

is permitted without reservation.

When travelling in a angled situation, take particular care that the upward angular movements of the towing rings/

traction coupling ball are limited.

Note!

Fabrication and as-

sembly take place

predominantly in

the factory. With

self-assembly it

is necessary to

consult with the

manufacturer.

Pick-up down or

up!

Setting the Pick-up load alleviation

Variant – Mechanical alleviation

The spring tension can be altered for optimum Pick-up

conditions.

• Pick-up rides to lightly (skips)

- reduce dimension (X)

• Pick-up rides to heavily

- increase dimension (X)

Variant – Hydraulic alleviation

Setting procedure:

- Open (pos. E) stop valve (H)

- Raise Pick-up

- Close (pos. A) stop valve (H)

- Lower Pick-up

- Set required system pressure (approx. 27 bar) by

opening stop valve (H) briefly according to manometer

(M)

The greater the pressure, the greater the alleviation.

Preload pressure in gas container (G):

- 10 bar nitrogen (N)

Setting of Pick-up pivoting area

To allow pick-up to work properly, the height (H ) of coupled

trailer must be correctly set (pick-up pivoting area).

Height (M) = 480 mm

Note:

Where the floor is uneven, reduce the

measurement by 1 cm (M = 470 mm)

• Setting procedure see chapter “First-time connection

to Tractor”

The deflector (P) also serves as accident

protection and must not be removed during

operation.

Safety and General

Caution!

Secure the PTO drive shaft and the tractor’s

hydraulic system against unintentional

reconnection before carrying out any

inspection, maintenance and adjustment

work on the cutting unit!

Secure the self-loading wagon against

rolling since some activities must be carried

out underneath the wagon!

Important checks on the cutter beam prior

to starting up each time:

- Bolts on left and right locked (E2)

- Free cutter overload protection from dirt

Caution!

Increased risk of

injury during all

work on the cutter

beam. Particularly

when swinging in

and folding up the

cutter beam.

and the press drive is turned off!

Cutting unit operation

Note in case of blockage in press channel

Caution!

Do not operate the push button for swinging

out (3) if there a blockage in the press

channel as the cutter beam is pivoted out

under hydraulic pressure.

Remedy

- Keep the push-button on the operating device

depressed and switch on the PTO drive shaft drive at

the same time.

The cutter beam will be swung out by the transport

pressure of the load material when the PTO drive shaft

is running.

- Swing the cutter beam back in again after clearing the

blockage.
