SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1 – Installing the Base Unit Wheels
Using the 1” x 3 1/2" Pins and cotter pins,
secure the two wheel lift hydraulic cylinders to
the tabs welded on the front of the Base Unit
Main Frame. (NOTE: For implements
equipped with wing wheels, be sure a 3” MS
hydraulic cylinder is used on the right set of
wheels and a 2 3/4" MS hydraulic cylinder is
used for the left set of wheels.)
Bolt the Wheel Arm Weldments to the front of
the Base Unit Main Frame directly below the
hydraulic cylinder shown using one 1 1/4" x 9”
Grade 5 Bolt and 1 1/4" Nylon Lock Nut.
Pin the clevis end of the hydraulic cylinder to
the lower tab on the Wheel Arm Weldment
and secure using the 1” x 3 1/2" pin and cotter pins. Align the wheel and hub and tighten the wheel
nuts in a star pattern to 80 Ft. Lbs. IMPORTANT: Check the wheel nuts periodically to ensure
they remain tight.
Secure one end of the Turn Buckle Assembly to the top of the Base Unit Main Frame as shown using one
1” x 3 1/2" pin and cotter pins.
Step 2 – Installing the A-Frame Tongue
Connect each side arm of the A-Frame
Tongue Assembly to the front of the Main
Frame Base Unit using one 1 1/4" x 6” Grade
5 Bolt and 1 1/4" Hex Nut.
Using the 1” x 3 1/2" pin and cotter pins,
secure the top of the A-Frame Assembly by
connecting the clevis end of the turn buckle to
the end of the upper bar as shown.
Slide the Inner Tongue Weldment into the
tongue A-Frame and secure using the 1” x 8”
Tongue Pin. Insert the 1/2" Hose Holder Rod
into the conduit on the front of the Inner
Tongue Weldment and secure using one 3/8”
x 3/4" Grade 5 Bolt.
Step 3 – Connect the Hydraulic Hoses
For soil conditioners equipped without wing
wheels, connect the hydraulic hoses and light
main wiring harness located in the left side
tubing of the A-Frame to the corresponding
hoses/wires located on the Main Frame Base Unit. For more information, refer to the “Light Kit / Wiring
Harness” and “Hydraulic Hose and Fittings” diagrams at the end of the Set-Up Instructions.
WARNING: Before attaching the cylinders to the wing linkage, charge the cylinders with hydraulic
oil to bleed all air out of the system, and then check for any leaks. Failure to do so could cause
erratic, sudden movement of the wings which could damage the equipment and cause serious
injury or death.
