3. Settings3.1 Special safety instructions• The adjustments described here must only be carried out when the machine is at acomplete standstill. Switch off the engine and remove the ignition key.• Secure the rotary tedder and tractor from rolling.• When the rotary tedder is raised by the rear hydraulic system, take steps to prevent it frombeing accidentally lowered!3.2 Spreading angle settings for theswather discsThe settings for the spreading angle ofthe tedder tines must be adapted to theconditions of the ground and crop.Adjustments are made on the undercarriagewheels of the rotary tedder.321Basic data for the spreading angle setting:Flat spreading angle II:- large intake width- short crops- crop lying out wide- fodder with less than 40% moisture contentSteep spreading angle I:- large output width- long crops- better spreading effectfor mown swaths- wilted silage- fodder with more than40% moisture contentKW-0-019Settings:Remove the linch pin (1) and pull out the pin (2). Movethe wheel bracket (3) to the selected position betweenposition I and position II. Insert the pin again andsecure it with the linch pin.KW-0-200Pin towards position I = steeper spreading anglePin towards position II = flatter spreading angleSetting the working depth of swather disc tinesSetting the working depth of the swather disc tines iscarried out on the upper link arm (1). Move the rotarytedder to working position on a level surface. Adjust therear hydraulic system to float position. Shorten or lengthenthe upper link arm until the distance "a" between the fronttines (2) and the ground is approx. 2 cm. The roller (3) ofthe carrier bar must be resting at the back of the U-profile(4) of the three-point frame.This setting is a basic setting. In practice, the height settingof the tines must be adapted ato the conditions.If the spreading angle is altered, thenthe working depth adjustment of theswather disk tines must be checked andrecalibrated.4312aKW-0-05020
