Handling the swather when in use 3.1 Mounting on the tractor • When attaching the rotary swather make sure that no-one remains between the implement and the tractor. • No-one may remain in the slewing range of the swather disk arms! As described in Point 2.3, attach the swather to the tractor, couple the universal drive shaft and secure. 3.2 Overload protection feature The swather disks are secured against overloading by so-called star-ratchet couplings. These star-ratchets (1) are located on the lateral take-off shafts of the distributor gearbox in the swather frame at the lateral swather disk drives. In the event of overloading, they produce a scraping noise. They transmit the applied torque in pulses. In order to prevent premature wear on the overload protection feature, switch off the universal drive shaft immediately, if the star ratchets respond during overloading. The overload protection feature may not be adjusted. The guarantee is canceled if overload protection devices other than those provided ex-works are used! 20 1 KS-0-092 3.3 Converting from transport to working position Turn the internal lateral guard bars (1) at the front leftand right-hand sides of the machine, by 90° inwards into the working position and lock with retaining pins (2).

Secure swather against rolling away before uncoupling! Also observe all further safety instructions! - Choose an even, dry site with sufficient space. - Swing jack stands downwards and lock with brace (1). - Uncouple universal drive shaft and set down on the support (2) provided. - Uncouple hydraulic hose and insert in the support provided. - Release lighting cable connection between tractor and swather. - Lower lower link arm until the swather is resting on the jack stand and then uncouple it. 1 KS-0-086 2 KS-0-087 25 4. Basic setting The basic setting should be undertaken on even surfaces. Keep a safe distance from the swather disk when it's turning! Before switching on the PTO shaft, ensure that no-one could be caught by the swather disk. When the PTO shaft is running, the swather arms may only be raised to just before their stops. 4.1 Height of the tractor lower link arms The height of the tractor lower link arms should be set so that the lower link arm pins are H approx. 58 cm above the ground. Fix the lower link arms at this height. (see also Point 7.2) H KS-0-088 4.2 Setting the working depth KS 6.21/20 Duo The working depth is set by means of the crank handles (1), located on the left- and right-hand swather disk arm. 1 Initially the working depth should be set so that the tine points just contact the ground. If necessary this setting must be corrected during use. Note the following: When the setting is too high the feed will not be completely harvested. When the setting is too low there is a risk that the feed will be soiled, the greensward may be damaged and increased wear of the twin-spring tines. KS-0-089 26 KS 6.21-6.81/20 Duo und KS 6.81-7.61/26 Duo The working depth for the swather disks is adjusted via two drive motors. Switch 3 = left-hand swather disk Switch 4 = right-hand swather disk Switching on operation device. Pressing the switch > upwards = moves swather disk upwards 5 4 3 2 6 Pressing the switch > downwards = lowers swather disk 1 The working depth should be set during use. M B K KRONE KS-0-102 Once depth adjustment is complete, switch off operation device! Do not activate both switches simultaneously! 4.3 Setting the working width KS 6.21-6.81/20 Duo und KS 6.81-7.61/26 Duo The working width of the swather arms is adjusted via two hydraulic cylinders. 5 Switch on operation operation. The side to be adjusted is activated by turning Switch 5 to the right or left. 3 Then move the right- or left-hand deployment arm in the required direction. 2 4 6 The working width of the swather arms should be adjusted during use. Turn Switch 5 back to the neutral position (central position) once the procedure is complete and switch off operation 1 M B K KRONE KS-0-102 The distance from swather disks to the swath former: much feed = large distance little feed = small distance The forward speed depends on the working pattern = tidy tine work with good swath formation. When initially actuating the width adjustment or after prolonged breaks (e.g. winter storage), fully extend swather disks and put the tractor valves under pressure for at least 15 secs, so that the hydraulic accumulators on the adjusting cylinders are filled. 27 4.4 Setting the cam track The cam track is adjusted with the adjusting lever (1). Before adjustment, the hinge clip which secures the adjusting lever in the hole segment must be taken out. The adjusting lever can be repositioned in the hole row by being gently raised. The following description applies for the right-hand swather disk: • Pull out the hinge clip via the adjusting lever (1) • Raise adjusting lever and pivot inwards = tine bars lift out later (e.g. swath turns/ narrow swaths) • Turn adjusting lever outwards = Tine bars lift out earlier (e.g. wide swaths) • Resecure adjusting lever after setting with the hinge clip. 1 KS-0-026 The left-hand swather disk is the mirror-image of the above. 4.5 Setting the lateral inclination of the swather disk chassis In order to achieve an optimum finish, the traverse inclination of the swather disks can be altered. Plain washers are provided on the chassis wheel bearings for this purpose, which can be optionally mounted below or above the chassis wheel bearing. 2 Note: With heavy feed - set the chassis internally as low as possible! KS-0-035 4.6 Travel speed and drive r.p.m. The travel speed and drive r.p.m. are determined by: • the feed volume • the ground conditions • the dryness The following should be taken as starting points: • PTO shaft speed approx. 450 r.p.m. • Forward speed approx. 6 - 8 km/h Drive r.p.m. and forward speed should be adapted to the particular conditions each time. 28 4.7 Swathing with only one swather disk KS 6.21/20 Duo According to the position of the switch cock (1) or the electrical operation, the right- or left-hand swather disk can be raised. Thus it is possible to swath with only one swather disk. With heavy feed - set the chassis internally as low as possible! Do not raise the swather disk arm above the permitted working position when in the transport position, as long as the tractor PTO shaft is switched on. Special care is required when using the swather with a raised swather disk! No-one may remain in the working area! Once the adjustment is complete, move the switch cock back to the central position.1. 29 5.
