Introduction

Dear Customer

These Operating Instructions are intended to allow you

to familiarise yourself with the implement and provide

you with clear information on safe and correct handling,

care and maintenance. Thus please take the time to read

these Instructions.

These Operating Instructions comprise part of the imple

ment. They are to be kept at a suitable location and acces

sible to staff over the entire service life of the implement.

Instructions based on the national provisions regarding

protection against accidents, road traffic and environmental

protection are also to be applied additionally.

Any persons commissioned with the operation, maintenance

or transport of the implement must read and understand

these Instructions, in particular the safety information, prior

to starting work. Any warranty claims lapse on non-obser

vance of these Instructions.

In case you have questions related to this operation manual

or further questions about this implement, please contact

your dealer.

Care and maintenance performed in good time and scru

pulously according to the maintenance intervals specified

ensure operational and traffic safety as well as the reliability

of the implement.

Use only the original spare parts and accessories from

Pöttinger or accepted by Pöttinger. For those parts relia

bility, safety and suitability for Pöttinger machines can be

assured. Warranty claims lapse if non-approved parts are

used. The use of original parts is also recommended after

the warranty period has expired to maintain the performance

of the implement in the long term.

Product liability legislation obliges the manufacturer and

the authorised dealer to issue Instructions when selling

implements and to instruct customers in the use with refer

ence to the safety, operating and maintenance regulations.

Confirmation in the form of a declaration of transfer is

required to verify that the implement and Instructions have

been transferred correctly. The declaration of transfer was

attached to the implement on delivery.

Every self-employed person and farmer is an entrepreneur

within the meaning of the product liability legislation. In

accordance with the laws of product liability, entrepre

neurial property damages are excluded from the liability.

All damage to property within the meaning of the product

liability legislation is regarded as damage caused by the

implement but not to the implement.

These Operating Instructions are integral part of the imple

ment delivery scope. You should therefore hand them over to

the new owner if ownership of the implement is transferred.

Train and instruct the new owner in the regulations stated.

The Pöttinger Service-Team wishes you good luck.

sition. The standing area of the support stand is

pointing backwards against the direction of trravel!

- Secure support stand using locking pins (2) and

linchpin.

Fit cardan shaft

NOTE

Life-threatening danger exists when cardan shaft

is installed incorrectly.

•

Always mount the wide-angle joint on the

Preparations for initial use

Important!

Working position means that the device has been lowered

and the rotor tines end within a raking range of approx.

2 cm above the ground (A1). See "Setting the rotor

height", "Operation" chapter.

010-04-17

The distance (X) between the PTO shaft and the tool bar

must have at least 120 mm in working position (standard

measure). Observe the distance "X" particularly when

driving over ground tops!

The position of the rotor tines (A1) should be somewhat

parallel to the ground; less inclination to the front is

permitted.

4. Set the correct distance (X1) with the help of the

threaded spindle.

For the machines with contact wheel

(optional

equipment)"

you need to set a pivoting range of the

drawbar for a good floor adjustment of the circular tines

(A1) on uneven surfaces.

- swivel the lever (H) downwards (0°) to secure the

threaded spindle against twisting.

Towing rope (option)

TIP

The towing rope is needed only with the option “hydraulic

swath apron”.

Lay the rope (S) into the tractor cab.

WARNIN

Risk of injury resulting in death or other serious injury

from tilting the tractor/trailer unit when driving round

bends on a slope.

The tractor's driving characteristics are influenced by

the weight of the rotor unit This can lead to hazardous

situations on slopes (tipping, slipping, material breakage,

etc.).

Danger of tipping exists in particular:

if the rotors are hydraulically raised.

when travelling through curves with raised rotor units.

•

Reduce speed when taking bends on a

slope

It is better to travel in reverse on a slope

than to carry out a risky turning manoeuvre.

Life-threatening danger through rotating rotors

•

If you have not disassembled all tine car

riers, you must secure the rotor with a fork

(G) against twisting.

The anti-rotation lock (G) is assembled on the right

safety bar. It is pivoted in the tine arm shaft when the

safety bar is swivelled up to prevent the rotor from

turning during the transport run.

Activate the single-action control valve (ST) to swivel

the machine up to the transport position (T1).
