4. Accident prevention
Most accidents that occur during work, maintenance or transport of a
machine are due to non-observ ance of the most elementary rules of
accident prevention.
It is, therefore, necessary that all licensed users (relatives,
employees, colleagues) read and observe the rules that follow
below:
• Turn off the universal joint shaft and the motor of the tractor
before carrying out any adjustments, maintenance or cleaning!
• In order to achieve the highest possible performance of the
LLIIPPCCOOMMuullttiippuurrppoosseeGGyyrraattiioonnHHaarrrroow
w, it must always be in
perfect condition. Maintenance or repairs must be carried out by
trained persons only. Spare parts must at least comply with the
technical requirements specified by the manufacturer! This is
only guaranteed f orLLIIPPCCOOoorriiggiinnaallssppaarreeppaarrttss!
• Before each use, the suspension bolts of the three-point
suspension and the nuts and screws, especially those of the
tines, must be checked to ensure they are firmly tightened!
• Before starting up, please make sure that no people or animals
are in the vicinity!
• Take special caution when working alongside roads or pathways!
• Do not leave the machine running without supervision!
• Before commencing maintenance and repair work, switch off the

Operating instructions Multipurpose Gyration Harrow UKD L/S
11 - 28 06.07.2004 / 00
• Do not wear wide or loose clothes (e.g. scarves)!
• Do not transport any persons or objects on the machine during
work or transport on the road!
• Only work with completely protected drive, i.e. joint shaft with
complete shaft protection and supplementary protection on
tractor and unit. Make sure the joint shaft connections engage
safely!
• Attach the holding chain of the joint shaft in order to avoid a
rotation of the joint shaft protection.
• Do not, for any reason, cli mb onto the m achine during operation!
• Do not act with any objects on the machine during operation!
• Never use the machine without the roller, levelling plate and
side panes, since these provide protection to the machine
against rotating tools!
• When adjusting the levelling plate and the rollers, always turn
off the tractor engine and carry out such adjustments in
conditions of absolute safety!
• Prior to any work on the machine, it should be placed on level
and solid ground or on a stable support! W hen working with the
unit lifted, always secure the unit mechanically by means of
adequate supporting elements!

8. Connection of the machine to the tractor
• Before starting the machine and the tractor, check road and
operating safety!
• Persons must never be allowed to stand between the tractor and
the attachment unit without having secured the vehicle against
rolling away by means of the locking brake and / or wheel cocks!
• Never stay in the rotating and pivoting area of the unit!
• Before attaching and remov ing the Gyration Harrow to the three-
point suspension, place the operating device in the position in
which unintentional lifting and lowering is excluded!
• In the transport position of the unit, sufficient lateral arresting of
the tractor three-point suspension has to be ensured, in order to
avoid lateral swing-out of the machine!
• Adjust the working position / inclination of the machine (Fig. 2,
Ref. B) by means of the compress ion link (Fig. 2, Ref. A).

9. Connecting the universal joint shaft
• W hen the unit has been coupled to the tractor, check the exact
length of the univers al joint shaft.
Very important
:
Highest possible overlapping has to be aimed at. During
operation, the maximum extension of the joint shaft should
be half the overlapping distance of the sliding profile.
(Fig. 3)
When connecting to different tractors, the length has to be
checked again!
• Press sliding pin and push the joint shaft onto the power take-off
shaft until the sliding pin engages! (Fig. 4)

Fig. 3
Operating instructions Multipurpose Gyration Harrow UKD L/S
19 - 28 06.07.2004 / 00
• This tractor symbol indicates the tractor side of the joint shaft.
Always attach the ov erload protection on machine side!
• Lubricate joint shaft prior to startup,
see lubrication plan! (Fig. 5)
• Attach the holding chain so that a sufficient piv oting area of the
universal joint shaft is guaranteed in all operating positions.
Never use the holding chain to suspend the universal joint shaft!
• For your own safety, replace the safety devices if they are
damaged or worn. When the machine is not in use, the universal
joint shaft can be hung in the bracket provided for protection!
• Make sure that when you mount the universal joint shaft on the
machine, the unit protective cover overlaps the joint shaft
protection in all operating positions!
• Attention!
Only use joint shaft types prescribed by the manufacturer!

10. Adjustment of working depth
Rotate the adjustment spindle to set the desired working depth.. For
machines equipped with adjustment rod, the working depth is
adjusted by repositioning the linch pin on the adjustment rod (Figs. 7
+ 8). This pin is inserted into the desired hole on the adjustment rod.
It is possible to vary the working depth from 0 to 14 cm. It is
important for the machine to rest on its roller while working.

The levelling plate (Fig. 9) allows levelling uneven ground and
distributing the earth. Make sure that the earth to be moved has
already been cultivated. When working on hard ground, the levelling
plate should be attached in the uppermost position in order to
prevent damage.
For the adjustment loosen both wing screws and push the levelling
plate to the desired position. When tightening the screws, make sure
that the tips of the screws engage in the provided recesses so that
an even height is ensured.

11. Maintenance of the machine
Steps to be carried out in order to maintain the machine in good
working conditi on:
• Grease the roller bearings (Fig. 10).
• Check the correct connection of the universal joint shaft and the
safety devices.
• Lubricate the universal joint shaft before start-up and every 8
operating hours with proprietary grease and check the smooth
running of the sliding profiles. In winter, the protective tubes
have to be greased in order to avoid freezing (see lubrication
plan Fig. 5).

Operating instructions Multipurpose Gyration Harrow UKD L/S
23 - 28 06.07.2004 / 00
• Check the level of liquid grease in the gearbox via the
corresponding plug (Fig. 11). This operation must be carri ed out
when the machine has already been running for a few minutes
and the grease has warmed up and become distributed evenly.
Then check the grease lev el with a dipstick (grease lev el should
be 2.5 cm). If necessary, top up liquid gear grease (based on
sodium bicarbonate - type GP 00).
• In case of machines with angular gear, the oil level can
additionally be read on the inspection glass. Oi l level must be at
least at the half in the inspection glass (in the angular gear, use
gear oil GX 85-90A).
Amounts of liquid grease for gearbox
• Check whether the tines are tightened, and retighten the screws,
if necessary. Replace damaged screws immediately! (See
chapter "12. Replacement of the tines")

12. Replacement of tines
When replacing the tines, make sure that the machine is secured
against unintentional tilting! When working with the unit lifted,
always secure the unit mechanically by means of adequate
supporting elements!
When attaching new tines, make sure that the lock nuts engage
firmly in the recesses, preventing them from turning and getting
damaged when the screws are loosened or tightened. Tighten
screws firmly. Only screw the tines to the pressure plates to
distribute the pressure on the tines. We recommend replacing the
screws and securing nuts as well when replacing the tines. (Note:
Always use the original steel nuts with fine pitch thread!)
13. After use
If theLLIIPPCCOOMMuullttiippuurrppoosseeGGyyrraattiioonnHHaarrrrooww is to remain unused for a
longer period, it is necessary to carry out the following steps:
• Thoroughly wash and dry theLLIIPPCCOOMMuullttiippuurrppoosseeGGyyrraattiioonn
HHaarrrroow
w.
• Check the function of all movable parts! Replace damaged or
worn parts!
• Check whether all screws are tightened!
• Check the oil and lubricant levels!
• Clean and lubricate the universal joint shaft!
• Lubricate unpainted metal parts to protect them against
corrosion, then cover theLLIIPPCCOOMMuullttiippuurrppoosseeGGyyrraattiioonnHHaarrrrooww
and store it in a dry place so that it will be ready for use any
time.
