Mounting the roller

The implement can be used with or without the roller. When working with the roller, the depth of the implement is controlled via the lower link hitch and the roller. Single rollers are parked with a roller holder.

REQUIREMENTS

  • The implement is coupled

  • The implement is aligned horizontally

  • The tine array is set to the shallowest working depth

IMPORTANT
Damage due to spacer elements not being used or not used properly
The implement can be damaged if the spacer elements are not swivelled in or out or are not swivelled in or out properly after dismounting the roller or before mounting the roller.
Always swivel the spacer elements in or out on both running gear hydraulic cylinders.
Always swivel the spacer elements in after dismounting the roller, and always swivel them out before mounting the roller.
After swivelling in the spacer elements, make sure that the recesses of the spacer elements are always fully resting on the piston rods.
