WARNING

BALANCE STATEMENT

Both of the Woods Center Drive Shredder flail tubes are balanced as rotor assemblies to meet or exceed factory standards before installation. After installation, the shredders are statistically inspected to check balance. These factory efforts allow the shredder to operate smoothly and be free of excessive vibration when delivered to the customer.

■ The operator must be familiar with all safety

rules and safety decals before installing and running the shredder. All personnel must be familiar with and stay out of the hazard area whenever the shredder is running. (See Figure 14, page 21).

Smooth, acceptable vibration levels can be easily estimated in the field. After machine shutdown and coast down has been completed, place a quarter on a clean top panel of the shredder. At full rotor rpm (while maintaining all safety rules regarding safe distances from rotating equipment) observe the quarter. If the quarter stays still and does not bounce around, the operator can estimate that the shredder is free from excessive vibration. If the quarter jumps around during full rotor rpm, the shredder may be operating with excessive vibration where troubleshooting and maintenance are required (refer to the Troubleshooting section).

The Woods Center Drive Flail Shredder has been designed for maximum durability when shredding any type of crop. While operating in the field, many factors can affect and degrade shredder rotor balance and cause increased vibration levels.

● Operating too low to the ground or in frequent con-

tact with the ground can cause the flail knives to

wear unevenly. This can reduce their chopping effect and also increase vibration levels.

● Hitting large rocks or other foreign objects can

damage knives and other rotor parts, causing excessive vibration.

● Over time, certain types of soil and crops can also

lead to uneven knife wear and increased vibration levels.

● Once field operation has been started, it is the

operator’s responsibility to check and maintain shredder rotor balance.

● If knife replacement is required due to wear or

damage, refer to REPLACING FLAILS, page 30.

● Throughout the life of the flail shredder, removing

the flail tubes for replacement or re-balance may be necessary.

● If flail tube replacement is required due to wear or

damage, refer to SERVICING ROTORS (FLAIL TUBES), page 31.

● Any re-balance should be done with all knives

installed.

● Factory balanced repair rotors are available

through your local Woods dealer.

● Consult with your local balance shop experts or

contact Woods Technical Service for re-balance or replacement options.

Continued operation with excessive vibration can cause damage to and shorten component life, void product warranty, and affect personal safety. Checking and maintaining shredder rotor balance is the owner/ operator’s responsibility.

TRAINING

Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped out by an operator’s single careless act.

In addition to the design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.

It has been said “The best safety device is an informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be that kind of operator.

SAFETY RULES

ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!

 Safety instructions are important! Read all attachment and power unit manuals; follow all safety rules and safety decal information. (Replacement manuals and safety decals are available from your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check the Dealer Locator at www.WoodsEquipment.com, or in the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-

6637.) Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can result in serious injury or death.

 If you do not understand any part of this manual and need assistance, see your dealer.

 Know your controls and how to stop engine and attachment quickly in an emergency.

 Operators must be instructed in and be capable of the safe operation of the equipment, its attachments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to operate this equipment without proper instructions.

 Keep hands and body away from pressurized lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles. Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate skin and will cause serious injury or death.

 Make sure that all operating and service personnel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it must be surgically removed as soon as possible by a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gangrene, serious injury, or death will result. CONTACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.

 Never allow children or untrained persons to operate equipment.

6 Safety

PREPARATION

 Use a suitable lifting device of sufficient capacity. Use adequate personnel to handle heavy components.

 Check that all hardware is properly installed. Always tighten to torque chart specifications unless instructed otherwise in this manual.

 Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic operation and allows loads or equipment components to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance, purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all hydraulic functions several times. Do this before putting into service or allowing anyone to approach the equipment.

 Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and valves are in good condition and not leaking before starting power unit or using equipment. Check and route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed, pinched, or come into contact with any moving parts. Operate moveable components through full operational range to check clearances. Replace any damaged hoses immediately.

 Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head; and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.

 Make sure attachment is properly secured, adjusted, and in good operating condition.

 Make sure spring-activated locking pin or collar slides freely and is seated firmly in tractor PTO spline groove.

 Before starting power unit, check all equipment driveline guards for damage. Replace any damaged guards. Make sure all guards rotate freely on all drivelines. If guards do not rotate freely on drivelines, repair and replace bearings before putting equipment into service.

 Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.

 Connect PTO driveline directly to power unit PTO shaft. Never use adapter sleeves or adapter shafts. Adapters can cause driveline failures due to incorrect spline or incorrect operating length and can result in personal injury or death.

CHOOSING THE CORRECT TRACTOR

To ensure safe and reliable operation of the flail shredder, use a tractor with the correct specifications. Use the following guidelines to select the correct tractor.

1. Horsepower

Use Table 1 on page 16 for selecting the tractor horsepower class appropriate for your unit’s width.

Increase the horsepower level by 25 percent when operating in hilly, soft, or wet conditions.

2. Tractor Weight

By following recommendations for tractor horsepower, the tractor will have sufficient weight to provide stability for unit during field operation or when transporting.

When using a 3-point mounted shredder, we recommend that each tractor be equipped with a full complement of suitcase weights on the tractor front (see Figure 2 for example). This will provide the required front weight for turning and extra traction if equipped with front wheel assist.

WARNING

3. 3-Point Hitch

The 3-point hitch models require that the tractor be equipped with a Category II or Category III 3-point hitch. If the hitch can be converted from one to the other, use a Category III to provide a wider stance and more stability.

Use the upper top link hole for Category III and the lower hole for Category II as shown in Figure 3.

For easier attachment, use a quick hitch. If not using a quick hitch, use optional hitch extension.

4. Hydraulic Requirements when Using Center Cutter Options

Figure 3. 3-Point Hitch Attachment

NOTICE

PTO DRIVELINE LENGTH

■ The unit is equipped with a PTO driveline long

enough to fit any tractor and 3-point linkage system.

■ The operator is responsible for measuring the

dimensions of the driveline through its working range. These dimensions will indicate if the driveline requires shorting to operate on the particular tractor/unit attachment system. The operator must check dimensions before using the unit for the first time and each time a different tractor is used with the unit.

■ Use the following procedure when determining

driveline dimension:

 Keep bystanders away from equipment.

The tractor hydraulic system must be capable of 8 gpm (30 lpm) at 1500 psi (10,335 kPa). The system cannot exceed 28 gpm or 3000 psi. Either closed-centered or open-centered systems can be used.

5. Load Sensing Hydraulics (3-Point Models Only)

Many newer tractors are equipped with “load sensing” hydraulics. The operator is responsible for setting the tractor hydraulic system to provide “float” on the 3-point hitch. Refer to the tractor manual for specific instructions.

The “float” feature will allow the unit to follow the ground contours during operation. This applies to 3point mounted machines only.

NOTICE

■ Do not use PTO shaft adapters. They will

change the drawbar dimension and can cause driveline failures.

16 Operation

1. Clear the area of all bystanders.

2. Attach the 3-point hitch to the unit but not the PTO

driveline.

3. Raise the unit until the tractor PTO and gearbox shafts are the same height.

4. Measure the dimension between the shaft grooves on the tractor and implement ends. If this dimension is less than 34.81 inches, the shaft will require shortening.

5. Move the unit to its highest and lowest working position and measure this dimension again. [The unit’s shaft can telescope (see Figure 5) before it has been shortened.]

6. If required, shorten the shaft to prevent bottoming out during use. NOTE: An extra inch of compression space in the shaft can eliminate bottoming out during use. Measure to make sure.

CAUTION

end of the shaft. Cut the same amount from both the splined shaft and the safety shield. See Figure

4. Use a file to remove any burrs from the cut end.

NOTICE

■ Cut only the male end. Never cut the female end.

8. Never cut more than 9 inches from the male end. Cutting 1 inch from the male end shortens both the minimum and maximum lengths by 1 inch.

Figure 4. Cutting the Driveline Shaft

ATTACHING SHREDDER TO TRACTOR

1. Place unit on a level, dry area free of debris and

other foreign object.

2. Clear the area of bystanders, especially children.

3. Provide enough clearance to back the tractor

safely into the unit.

■ Do not allow anyone to stand between tractor

and unit when backing up to the unit.

With Quick Hitch Attachment:

4. Set the height of the 3-point hitch so that quick

hitch claws are lower than the mounting pins.

5. Make sure 3-point hitch is set in the non-sway position. See tractor manual for details.

6. Align the claws under the lower and upper mast mounting pins while backing up.

NOTE: For a Category II hitch, use the bottom upper mast hole. For a Category III hitch, use the top upper mast hole.

7. When the claws are under the pins, slowly raise the 3-point hitch. Make sure each mounting pin seats in its respective claw.

 Keep bystanders away from equipment.

 Connect PTO driveline directly to power unit

PTO shaft. Never use adapter sleeves or adapter shafts. Adapters can cause driveline failures due to incorrect spline or incorrect operating length and can result in personal injury or death.

Figure 5. Driveline Dimension

8. Release the claw retainer locks to secure the

mounting pins in the claws.

9. Check the top link frame. It should be free to slide in its mounting slots. This movement allows the unit to follow the ground contour when cresting a hill or going through a depression.

2. Insert the hose male ends into the tractor couplers. Make sure hoses lock in place.

3. Route hoses along or over the hitch and secure in position with clips, tape, or plastic ties. Provide enough slack for turning and lifting.

REMOVING SHREDDER FROM TRACTOR

Reverse the above procedure when removing unit from the tractor. Engage transport lock channel at the four struts prior to lowering shredder. Release pressure before removing hoses.

The Woods Flail Shredder is designed with the flexibility to operate well in almost any kind of crop and terrain conditions. However, the operator is responsible for being familiar with all operating and safety procedures and following them. Each operator should review this Field Operation section at the start of the season and as often as required to be familiar with the unit.

Operators should also review the PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST, page 15, and Attaching Shredder to Tractor, page 17.

 Always comply with all state and local lighting and marking requirements.

RUBBER FLAPS OR BELTING

All units are equipped with front shield flaps or belting along the front of the frame. The shield flaps stop or deflect trash, stones, or other debris picked up by the flails.

Be sure the shield flaps or belting are in good condition for operation. Replace if damaged, torn, or missing.

Figure 7. Setting Operating Height

Be sure the floating mast is free to slide in its mounting frame to allow the machine to follow ground contours. Refer to Figure 8.

PREPARING FOR OPERATION

1. Pull into the field and position the unit in a level

area.

2. Lower into operating position.

3. Set the 3-point so the quick hitch is vertical and the

floating upper mast is forward.

4. Use stroke control spacer on four cylinders to set cutting height.

Flail Height

Set the unit to give a flail height of at least 3 to 6 inches (75 to 150 mm) above the ground. This will

minimize the amount of stones and dirt picked up by the flails under all operating conditions. (See Balance Statement, page 5.)

NOTE: To avoid unnecessary wear on knives and related parts, never set the unit lower than the recommended setting. (See Balance Statement, page 5.)

FLAIL KNIVES

The shredder is factory equipped with “L” or cup type flails. The two types are interchangeable.

“L” Flails

“L” flails (Figure 10) work best when trash or crop residue is standing.

Cup Flails

Cup flails (Figure 11) can pick up material from the ground and work best in matted trash conditions.

The standard cup flail is 11 inches (279 mm) long and is used for most applications. Optional 7 and 9 inch (177 and 228 mm) flails are available to match the tip position to ground contour.

Use stroke control spacers. The number and thickness should be equal on each cylinder to keep shredder level.

MAN0943 (07/12/2011)

Figure 12. Setting Flail Height

Setting Caster Wheels

Normally, wheels are set to track in the row centers, between the raised seed beds. Tire position will determine flail height, but depth of furrow is also a factor in setting flail height. In some conditions the furrow between the seed beds is deeper on the ends, where irrigation waters enter the field. As furrows change depth, flail height will change.

To compensate for the depth change, move the caster wheels against the side of the outer seed bed (see Figure 13). The wheels will then tend to climb up the side of the seed bed and prevent the flails from hitting the top of the bed.

Set the flail height after the wheels have been moved against the seed bed.

GEARBOX OIL LEAKAGE

NOTICE

■ Major oil leakage from the gearbox shaft seal

area is not acceptable and could cause the gearbox to fail due to lack of lubrication and cooling. It is the operator’s responsibility to check the gearbox oil level per the Lubrication Service Table.

Before checking gearbox oil level, shut down the shredder for a couple of hours to allow the oil to drain back into the reservoir for the most accurate reading. Proper oil level should be between the full and add lines on dipstick. When oil is needed, add through the dipstick tube.

NOTICE

■ DO NOT OVERFILL. Lab tests have proven that

overfilling the gearbox can dramatically increase the gearbox operating temperature. In extreme cases this can overheat the oil, reducing its lubricating and cooling properties, and eventually cause shaft seals to deteriorate and fail. Overheated oil has an obvious burnt smell; drain it and refill with new oil. Overfilling gearbox oil can void the warranty.

The gearbox should not require frequent servicing of oil. It is not designed to consume or lose large amounts of oil. If oil needs to be added frequently, troubleshooting the cause is required (see section below).

3. Closely monitor gearbox for 10 hours of operation. Check and service oil every 30 minutes or as needed to ensure operation does not occur with oil below the add mark.

4. If after 10 hours of operation, oil covers less than the area described in 1 & 2 above, seepage is considered to be acceptable.

5. If after 10 hours of operation, oil covers more than the area described in 1 & 2 above, this seepage is considered to be unacceptable leakage.

6. Gearboxes with unacceptable leakage should be rebuilt, replacing old seals and worn parts with new seals and parts. Gearbox rebuild and seal replacement parts are available through your local Woods dealer. Consult with Woods Technical Service for further details, rebuild recommendations, or warranty questions.

CHANGING GEARBOX OIL

Although gearbox oil never wears out, dust, dirt, and moisture can enter through the breather during operation. These contaminants must be removed once a year to ensure a long life for working components. In very dusty or dirty conditions, change the oil twice a year.

1. Clear area of bystanders, especially children.

Gearbox leakage & Troubleshooting

Some gearbox oil leakage may be acceptable if:

1. Oil covers less than a 3-inch diameter circle around the shaft seal area (see Figure 29).

2. Oil covers less than a 4-inch diameter circle around the dipstick tube (see Figure 29).

If oil leakage covers an area larger than that described in 1 and 2, do the following:

1. Properly check oil level. If low, properly service.

2. Clean oily area of gearbox. Use a degreaser to

remove all oil from outside surface of gearbox.

2. Shut off tractor, place all controls in neutral, set parking brake, remove key, and wait for all moving parts to stop.

3. Raise the unit to provide access to underside. Place safety stands or large blocks under frame.

4. Disconnect PTO driveline and hydraulic lines.

5. Place a pan under drain plug. Remove drain plug

and dipstick plug (see Figure 30).

6. Allow gearbox to drain for 10 minutes.

NOTE: To remove the most contaminants, drain oil

when gearbox is hot.

missing knives or damaged drive components can cause damage to the shredder and personal injury. Excessive vibration can also be transmitted through the hitch mounts and PTO to the tractor resulting in tractor damage.

Factory balanced replacement rotors are available through your local Woods dealer. Contact Woods Technical Service for re-balance options or further details.

Follow the procedure below if rotor removal or replacement is required.

 Use a suitable lifting device of sufficient capacity. Use adequate personnel to handle heavy components.

1. Clear the area of any bystanders.

2. Shut off tractor, place all controls in neutral, set

parking brake, remove key, and wait for all moving parts to stop.

3. Remove PTO driveline from the shredder.

4. Fully disconnect the shredder from the tractor.

5. Remove wheel arms.

6. Use a hoist, crane, or frame of sufficient capacity to

raise the front of the unit and allow the back of the unit to rest on a solid surface (blocks).

7. Leave lifting device attached while working on rotors to prevent tipping.

Removing Components

Refer to Replacing knives, page 30, for knife or knife component replacement.

■ Once field operation has been started, it is the

responsibility of the owner/operator to monitor and maintain acceptable rotor balance. Refer to Balance Statement, page 5, for details.

NOTICE

■ Read Balance Statement, page 5, before replac-

ing any knives.

Refer to Replacing Knives, page 30, for knife or knife component replacement.

The Woods Center Drive Flail Shredder has been designed for durability when shredding any type of crop. Some operating conditions will shorten the life of the shredder or components. These include operating too low to the ground or in frequent contact with the ground, and contact with large rocks or other foreign objects. Over time, some types of soils and crops can cause wear or damage to rotor components and affect rotor balance, leading to increased vibration. Continued operation with excessive vibration can damage the shredder, requiring rotor service, removal, or replacement.

Refer to Servicing Rotors, page 31, before proceeding with these steps.

1. Follow steps in the previous section to prepare and position shredder. Support each end of the rotor (flail tube) to be removed with a crane or hoist.

2. Remove bearing locking collar (see Figure 35).

3. Remove the six bolts holding the bearing plate to

the body assembly.

4. Slide rotor out to disengage from the center drive coupling.

5. Thoroughly clean and inspect gearbox drive couplings for wear and replace if any wear is detected. Also inspect the rubber O-ring for wear or tears and replace if any wear or tears are detected.

6. Remove crossmember from the underside of the shredder, providing access for the removal of the gearbox.

7. Remove gearbox, if damaged. This will require removal of the second rotor (repeat steps 1-5 above).
