4.3 Driving loaded
The Reel Rotator is designed for use on even and level oor. During transport the
reel carriage shall be raised as little as possible. Transport with raised reel carriage
should be made over the shortest possible distances and at low speed.
4.4 Rotation with load
NOTE! Rotation is only allowed to take place, if the Reel Rotater is placed on an
equal oor.
When rotating reels, the operator needs a full
overview of the whole working area, so that the
rotation movement can be stopped before the
reel touches the oor, the items or persons in the
working area.
4.5 Emergency braking and Emergency stop
The Reel Rotator has an emergency stop. When activating the
emergency stop, the main current supply is switched off.
The movement of the reel carriage stops immediately when
activating the emergency stop.

Replacement:
The old fuse is to be removed and replaced by a new one of the same size.
Find out why the fuses blow!
100A
5.2 Wirring connections
Many operational disturbances are caused by bad
connections in the elctrical circuit. Make sure that the
connections are in order.
Check connections regularly for damage at insulating caps or
bad connections at plugs etc. Verdigris must be removed from
cable plugs. Keep all screw/nut connections tight.
17
6.0 Long live Reel Rotator
Regular inspection and the replacement of worn or defective parts in good time will
prolong the life of the Reel Rotator. “Prevention is better than repair”, therefore ensure:
• That the battery is fully charged every time
• Correct usage
• Regular cleaning
• Periodic safety and service inspection
• For safety reasons please check the below every 3 month:
- Tighten loose screw and nuts
- Check that there are no cracks, fractures and deformations in
the bearing construction
- Wearing parts, such as brakes, wheels and bearings, are adjusted and
exchanged continuously
6.1 Lubrication and hydraulic oil
Under normal operation conditions the Reel Rotator requires no
lubrication. All ball bearings are sealed and lubricated for life, and
moving parts have self-lubricating bearings or are treated with grease.
The hydraulic system is lled with hydraulic oil of viscosity class
ISO VG 15. An additive is added to the oil. The concentrate reduces friction and wear
and protects against corrosion. Pre-mixed hydraulic oil with additive is available from
the dealer. The oil is suitable for use in the temperature range -10 to +50° C. A thinner
oil is recommended for temperatures lower than -10° C (if necessary, contact your
dealer).
6.2 Oil change
Draining the oil:
1. Bring the unloaded reel carriage down to the lowest position.
2. Most of the oil can be drained by loosening the hydraulic hose union and briey
activating the hydraulic pump with the switch.
3. The remaining oil can be drained from the oil tank by removing the tank.
Oil lling:
4. Fill oil through the lling hole on the tank.
5. Oil quantity: ELFRRM 1750 & ELFSRRM 1750 approx 3 liter
ELFRRE 1750 & ELFSRRE 1750 approx 3 liter
6. Ret the lling cap and bleed the system (6.6).

6.3 Reel carriage adjustment
Two of the rollers on the reel carriage are
mounted on eccentric pins, so that they can be
adjusted. The adjustable rollers are at the top.
1. Loosen screw (pos. 91) (key width 5 mm).
2. Eccentric pins (pos. 56) (key width 8 mm)
can now be turned to give the necessary
reel carriage adjustment.
3. Adjustment must be made on both sides
to ensure uniform loading of the rollers.
6.4 Adjustment of lifting chain
The chains shall be adjusted so that
• they lift equally
• they are equally tight
• The lifting movement has to stop in the cylinder,
before the mast rolls touch the top stop.
The nuts (pos. 18) are to be adjusted
(nut M12, key width 19 mm).

6.5 Adjustment of steering wheel
chains
- Set the handle in its middle position.
- Adjust the nuts (1, 2, 3 and 4) and bring
the wheels into parallel.
6.6 The hydraulic pump and the gear motor
The hydraulic pump has a S3 “periodic intermittent duty” of 10%. This means that
the pump in total is allowed to operate 1 minute for a period of 10 minutes.
Note! If the pump operates more than 10%, the motor will be damaged due to
superheating.
Bleeding the hydraulic system
With a load of 50-100 kg, the reel carriage must be raised and lowered to top and
bottom position 2-3 times.
Gear motor of the Reel Rotator
The gear motor has a ”short time under constant load” of 10 minutes
(S2=10 minutes). This means that the motor is allowed to operate with the
maximum load for 10 minutes. Hereafter it has to be cooled down to normal
temperature.
Note! The motor will be damaged by superheating, if it operates for a longer time
or if it is not cooled down.
6.7 Cleaning
When cleaning the Reel Rotator, do not direct the jet onto bearings
and seals. Otherwise the grease will be washed out and the life of the
equipment shortened.
Cleaning of the plastic screen (polycarbonate)
The screen is to be washed with slightly warm water added a neutral cleaning
material, and afterwards washed with clean water.
Use a soft sponge, a woollen cloth or a wash leather.
Never use sharp objects or
solvent cleaners when cleaning.

6.8 Adjustment of side play
1. Loosen counter nut B. Screw (A) is loosened counter-clockwise,
until resistance disappears.
2. Turn the screw clockwise, until resistance appears. The following
1.5 to 2.5 turns of the screw will be a tightening of the spring (C).
3. When a larger resistance appears, make 0.25 turn counter clockwise, and the counter nut (B) will be tightened.
4. Pump the reel carriage to its top position, and when lowering it has
to slide to the bottom. If this is not the case, loosen screw A, make
c. 0.5 turn counter-clockwise and repeat point 4.

7.0 Adjusting the Reel Rotator
7.1 Tensioning the chains (only ELFRRE & ELFSRRE)
When the unloaded reel carriage can be tilted manually approx. 2 cm, measured at
the rear carriage, the chains should be tensioned.
This is done by:
1) Removing the cover from the reel carriage.
2) Loosening the gear motor (A1)
3) Loosening chain wheel (B1)
4) Turning the nut (B2), so that the large chain is tensioned, until the slack
is about 5 mm.
5) Tightening the chain wheel (B1)
6) Tightening the nuts for the gear motor (A2), so that the chain is tensioned, until
the slack is about 2-3 mm. Tighten the nuts (A1) again.
7) Replace the cover.
NOTE!
Check the location of the inductive switch (see 7.2) and check that the large chain is
tighened correctly in the whole rotation area after adjusting the chains.

7.3 Lubrication
Support bolts
To support the thrust ring, two support bolts are
placed behind the ring.
The bolts must only just touch the ring, and the
back of the ring has to be lubricated with grease,
so that the bolts slide smoothly.
Chains
The chains of the Reel Rotator have to be
lubricated at the yearly service check.
