Introduction:
Please take the time to carefully read all the instruction booklets provided with your new Kongskilde
product. Once you are finished reading do not throw these guides out. Keep them for later review.
The "Spare Parts List" is referenced to by this guide. We suggest having it on hand during the assembly
process.
Accessories may have their own instruction guide. Please read the
relavent booklets for instructions on how to perform the installation
of accesories. (Harrows, light kit etc.)
Be sure to read and understand the "Owner's Manual" before operating
this equipment. It contains information about adjustment settings,
operating instructions and saftey precautions.
Please fill out and return the Owners Registration and Warranty Form
provided in the Owners Manual to activate the warranty.
Preassembly Instructions:
Assembly of Kongskilde products should only be undertaken by
authorized Kongskilde Dealers or an approved service provider with
the necessary tools, equipment and training for safe assembly of the
unit.
Frame components are heavy and somewhat awkward to handle.
Proper lifting devices such as overhead cranes, boom lifts or mobile
lift trucks should be used at all times when moving or handling the
large frame components.
Proper steel assembly stands or support jacks should also be used
to support the frame components, preventing them from falling.
Recommended assembly tools include:
A full set of standard open or box end wrenches and sockets; assorted sizes of pin punches; a heavy
hammer and/or sledge hammer; a pry bar; a large adjustable wrench; and pair of visegrip or similar
type pliers.
Optional tools could include an all purpose jack and a good quality air or electric drive impact tool
with heavy drive sockets.
The assembly area should be should be large enough to allow workers and equipment to move around
freely during assembly of the unit. For example; to fully assemble a 2800-80 with 8m working width,
a minimum area of 10m x 11m with an overhead clearance (wing fold) of 5m is needed (10m x 11m
x 5m)
3
If the unit is to be assembled and folded indoors, additional clearance may be needed in the assembly
area.
The ceiling height and the size of the building exit door must also be considered in order to safely fold
and move the cultivator outdoor after assembly.
The floor area should be level and clean.
Be sure to check the packing slip to be certain everything is present.
Carefully unpack and lay out all of the fasteners and hardware. Sort and organize the hardware by
type and size.
Some of the components of the cultivator are very heavy. Extra care should be exercised when working
with these parts. Be sure to properly support all large compnonents, especially the frames. Proper supports
Fastners sorted for ease in assembly.
protect the assembler, the product and the workspace. Improper supports can lead to accidents causing
injury or death as well as damaging the product, which can make it difficult to sell. On this page and
the next are examples of good supports for a frame.
Moving heavy parts can be harzardous. Use proper
equipement for heavy lifting, and make sure that it is
operated by certified technicians. Failure to do so can lead
to accidents and injuries.
Utilizing proper supports stabilize the frame and make the
assembly safer and easier. In the example below example
steal saw horses are used to prevent swaying while the frame
is supported by an overhead crane.
Safety should be the first concern of anyone assembling
a Kongskilde cultivator. Such an assembly can be a safe

project, if the assembler takes the appropriate steps, and
applies a bit of common sense.
Supporting the frame prevents damage to
the product.

Tines:
Each tines must be assembled and then attached. Assembly is
straight forward simply look up the exploded view of the tine in
the "Spare Parts List." This contains all the information needed
to assemble the individual tines.
Once the tines are assembled, they must then be attached to the
toolbar. The position of the tines are described in guides canned
tine patterns.
Note:10cm or wider sweeps can not be placed on toolbar behind the
outer tandem wheels Sweep will interfere with tire. Use only 7 cm
goosefoots hare in these locations
An attached tine
A warning for those attaching tines
A number of different tines patterns are available from Kongskilde, each of which
has been design for different soil conditions. Chose an appropriate pattern for the
conditions expected and then attach the tines where indicated by the pattern. The
actual attachment is shown in the picture in the upper right.
For the Res-Till the tines can be attached in a number of differen patterns.
These tine patterns show measurements from the center line (marked with an M)
of the cultivator frame to the center of each tine. Once the tine has been placed,
remember to tighten it.
Most tines can be assembled seperately and later attached to the frame. The VFM
tines is the exception (see next page).

The VTH Tine
Assembly Information for the VFM Tine:
1

The VTM tines are larger than most other tines. For this reason this the stem
of the tine will interfer with attachment of the tine to the toolbar. Hence, the
tine can not be assembled prior to being attached to the toolbar.
To avoid this problem assemble the tines in the following order. Begin by
bolting the clamp to the toolbar (1 in the diagram below) in the position
indicated by the tine pattern. Then attach the coil (2) to the clamp using the
spacer. Next bolt the stem (3) to the coil. Finally fasten the sweep (4) to the
tine. Check the “Spare Parts List” for the types of fastners needed at each
step.
Once the assembly is complete check the individual nuts and bolts to make
sure they are tight.
The tine pattern for this tine is found in the tine pattern booklet.

Assembling the Center Frame:
The picture below shows how to assemble the center frame.
The front frame attaches to the rear frame as shown above. Use the bolts listed in the "parts book". Be
sure to bolt both top and bottom holes in the front and back. Remember to tighten them well.

Wheel Installation :
The next step in the assembly is attaching the wheels to the rear part of the center frame. The top picture
shows the wheel assembly and the lower picture shows the exploded view of the wheel assembly.

Hinge plate and Wing Assembly:
These two diagrams show how to assemble the wings and how to attach the hinges. The hinges used
for the two versions of the center frame are quite different, as you can see.

11
Wing Installation & Hinge Pins:
The wing installation requires the moving of the two wing frames into contact with the centre frame.
The contact points should be the hinges where the wings fold.
Wide Center
This picture shows the two parts
of the center frame and the two
components of the one wing.
Narrow Center
This cultivator has three hinges. Pin the front hinge first, followed by the middle and then the rear.
Leave all of the hinge bolts loose until all 3 hinge pins have been installed.
Use a 1” washer inside the castle nut and cotter pin on all three hinge pins.
12
Mechanical Adjust Wheels on 1.0m Wings:
(Only used on the 16' - 5.0m Res-Till)
The 1.0m wing uses the mechanical adjust wheels as the main gauge wheels. These
wheel attaches work the same on each wing because they are symmetric. The wheels
are attaced as shown below.

Wing Cylinder Assembly:
Start by mounting the wheel-lift cylinder in the location shown on the following page, with the pins
described in the "Spare Parts List".
The wing-lift cylinders should be attached as shown below. The ports on both wing cylinders should
face to the outside of the machine. There are three wing-lift Cylinders sized 4.5", 4.25", 4". The 4.5"
cylinder is to be placed on the center, the 4.25" one goes on the left wing and the 4.0" one goes on the
right wing.
Important: The hydraulics should not be attached at this time.

Adjustment Point Attachment:
Attach the adjustment arm as shown below.
Extending the adjustment arm raises the wheels and lowers the body. For more information on
adjustments refer to the "Owners Manual".
Adjustment Slider:
Make sure the wing adjustment slider is cranked out to 7 - 8”
cylinder. If not, a tine could hook itself over the wheel axel, requiring you to remove the tine to
unhook it.
This is due to the fact that the Res-Till has a slightly different wing linkage than the vibro-till, giving
the wings more lift when turning in the field.

Hydraulic Assembly Information:
For proper installation of the hose lines and fittings refer to the hose layout diagram provided in this
booklet. The hydraulic hose lines and fittings are provided in the hose kit. Secure the hoses to the frames
with the hose clamps, carriage bolts and locknuts provided.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
DO NOT PLACE HOSE LINES ALONG FRAME IN FRONT OF TOP FRAME MOUNTING PLATES
AS SHOWN BELOW. Hose lines can become pinched by the front wing fold stop plate when folding
the machine if the hoses are laying on top of the frame tube.
Also improperly attached hoses can compromise the hydrualic system. This could damage the equipment
and should be avoided. Check the hydrualic attachments before using the machine.
The cylinders used are designed to rephase. Raising and lower the machine to its maximum extent with
make all of the cylinders act in phase.
THIS IS RIGHT! KEEP HOSE LINES RUNNING ACROSS THE
CULTIVATOR BEHIND THE FRAME TUBE AND NEATLY CLAMPED
TO THE FRAMES WITH THE HOSE CLAMPS OR PLASTIC TIE
STRAPS PROVIDED.
25
Further notes on Hydraulics Installation
The wing fold cylinders must be charged
with oil before attempting to fold the
cultivator. Disconnect the cylinder rod
clevis from the fold bracket and place a
block under the cylinders as shown.
Connect the hoses to the tractor or
portable hydraulic unit and stroke the
wing fold cylinders in and out several
times holding the lever at the end of the
stroke to remove the air from the system
and ensure the cylinders and hoses are full
of oil. Remove the block and reconnect
the cylinder to the fold bracket with the
cylinder pin, washer and clip pin.
Always make sure the wing fold
lock latches are in the correct
postion when wings are raised in the folded
position. Be sure to unlatch the lock latch
before unfolding the cultivator.
Always insert the transport lock on the
master cylinder when ever the cultivator is
placed in the raised position for transport,
maintenance or storage.

The depth control valve is routed between the tractor and the base of the master
cylinder(s). The valve is marked with “in” and “out” at the inlet and outlet ports.
There is one master cylinder on the narrow (3m) base machine, so one outlet port
is to be plugged. On the wide (4m) base machine, the valve also acts as a tee, splitting the tractor hose off to the two master cylinders.
28
On Completing the Assembly:
When the cultivator frame is fully assembled check all that nuts and bolts are secure.
Check the hose layout and hydraulic connections according to the hydraulic diagram.
Be sure to read the Owners Manual before attempting to fold or operate the cultivator. The Owners
Manual provides important instructions and safety precautions that must be followed before attempting
to hook up and move the cultivator after assembly.
If you have purchased optional levelling attachments such as the combi harrows shown on the cultivator
below, refer to the manual provided with the Harrow Assembly for proper installation and adjustment
of the attachments.
