OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

4.

To fold/unfold the Field Cultivator, find a level area
large enough to accommodate the machine when it
is fully unfolded. The tractor should be stopped and
not moving with the implement fully raised. Remove
the wing transport lock pins from the mounts and
install them in the storage locations (See
Figure 4-3.)

NOTE

Failure to remove the wing lock pins when unfolding will
result in serious damage to the implement. Be sure other
people and pets are a safe distance away.

5.

Slowly engage the tractor lever and fold/unfold the
wing frames. When the wings are unfolded, continue
holding the tractor lever to fully extend all fold
cylinders. This will allow the wings to fully flex in the
field. When the unit is fully folded, remove the wing
transport lock pins from the storage location and
install in the mounts provided on each side of the
machine (See Figure 4-3.)

6.

Maintenance – Regularly check all hydraulic
components. Check for hoses that may have
become worn or pinched. Look for cylinders, valves,
hoses, or fittings that may be leaking hydraulic fluid.
Replace or repair any leaking or defective
components immediately. Unfold, lower the unit to
the ground, and relieve hydraulic pressure before
attempting to service any hydraulic component.

7.

Storage - For extended periods of non use, it is best
to store the Field Cultivator inside if possible. If the
unit must be stored outside for extended periods, is
best to apply a light coating of oil or grease to
exposed cylinder rods to prevent them from rusting. If
the unit is stored in the folded position, make sure the
wing transport lock pins are installed to prevent wing
frames settling (See Figure 4-3.)
