0300-GB MULTITAST_288

THE SYSTEM "MULTITAST"

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.

Using the machine without the feeler wheel (2)

Particular operating conditions require that the feeler wheel (2) be

removed.

If operating without feeler wheel (2) then the following is

to be observed:

• It is imperative that the running wheels of the rotary units be

positioned forward (4).

- otherwise danger of component breakage through

overloading

• The turning joint (1) of the rotary unit must be fixed

- otherwise the rotary unit will tip down and the tines will 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.

• Coverting and fixing the rotary units

- see next page

OPERATION

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.

• Put tractor control device (ST) into "floating position

or lower".

The plungers of both lifting

cylinders can than move

freely enabling the rotor

units to adapt to the uneven

ground.

• Set height of lifting

gear (H1)

- In order to obtain

tidy raking operation,

the rotor must be as

horizontal as possible.

A very slight inclination

forward is allowed.

Crank handle (8)

- 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.

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.

- The curved track for tine arm control can be adjusted (optimum

use of the tine control).

- 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 manœuvre in working position

The 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.

OPERATION

Swathes with only one rotary unit

Caution!

Do not enter rotor

area while driving

motor is running.

Because of the double-jointed drive travelling with

only one rotary unit over swathes already made or for

reasons of space can also take place.

Variant 1 *

Hydraulic operating device preselection

Procedure:

- The rotary unit can be individually selected

- Move lever (L or R) on operating device to “ON”

- Actuate hydraulic control valve on tractor

- The rotary unit selected may only be raised to the

field transport position (FT)

- With that the drive need not be turned off

Hydraulic operating device functions:

Lever L = left rotary unit

Lever R = right rotary unit

Position A = Stopcock opened

Position B = Stopcock closed

Variant 2 *

Electrical preselection

• When individual lift is switched off actuating only one

control valve raises both rotary units

• Pressing button on operating console activates

individual lift

- Control light on operating console lights up when

individual lift is activated

- Actuate the relevant hydraulic servo-valve (ST1 or

ST2) on tractor

- The selected rotary unit is raised to the field transport

position (FT)

Note!

For this variant an additional single-action

hydraulic connection (EW) is necessary on

the tractor

There are 2 variants to activate an individual lift

151-05-03

TD34/90/23

Note!

Do not raise the rotary unit beyond the field

transport position. If it is raised to the 90°

position, the joints may become damaged

during operation.

9700-GB HANGFAHRT_288

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.
