Summers Hydraulic Fold Coil - Manual (Page 11)

SECTION 2 - ASSEMBLY
Refer to illustrations on following pages and follow these steps when assembling an 14’ to 44’ Summers Hydraulic Fold
Coil Packer or Hydraulic Fold Rolling Chopper. The machine should be placed in a firm, level area that allows ample
room for assembly in field position.
CAUTION: For safety purposes, block equipment while working on it.
CENTER ASSEMBLY
Place center section on stable supports approximately 2-1/2 ft. off floor. Install cylinder attach Eye Bolts. Set Eye Bolts in
middle of adjustment. Install hydraulic cylinders. Secure Main Lift Cylinders with 1” diameter pins and cotter pins. Secure
base end of Wing Lift Cylinders (8C0432) with 1” diameter pins and roll pins. Install center wheel lift arm assemblies
with 1-1/4” X 14” pins. Apply good quality Anti-Seize lubricant on pins prior to assembly. Secure with 1/2” X 1-3/4” cap
screws, lock nuts and flat washers (over slotted hole). Pre-Assemble Walking Axle assemblies (standard center only).
Attach Walking Axle assemblies to lift arm assemblies with 3/4” bolts, lockwashers and nuts.
WING ASSEMBLY
Install left and right wings. Secure with 1-1/4” diameter pins and roll pins. Connect front and rear wing sections with
cross braces. Refer to layout drawings to determine brace locations. Secure cross braces with 3/4” u-bolts. Attach
wing axle assemblies to outside wing cross brace using 3/4” u-bolts. Wing axle and hub assemblies are optional on
single coil/chopper wings.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Install cylinder hydraulic fittings and hydraulic hoses between cylinders.
HITCH TUBES
Position hitch tube(s) on top of center section. Attach hitch tube(s) to center section with ¾” u-bolts, lockwashers and
nuts. Connect hitch tubes with hitch extension (8C5060, 8C5070 or 8C5100), hitch channel (8C5050) and hitch piece
(8D0720) at front of machine using hardware provided.
HYDRAULIC HOSES TO TRACTOR AND TIRES
Install hydraulic hoses and fittings to front of machine. Secure hoses with clamps provided. Do not over tighten, hy-
draulic hoses expand and shorten when pressurized. Install wheels and tires. Tighten wheel bolts to 170 ft-lb torque.
CHARGE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Block Wing Lift Hydraulic Cylinders (8C0432) so rods can fully extend without contacting wing (Photo 44a.). Connect
hydraulic tips to tractor hydraulic couplers. Extend and retract cylinders until air is purged from hydraulic system. At-
tach rod end of wing lift cylinders to wing lift slots with 1” X 7” bolt, flat washer, bushings and lock nut (Photo 44b.). Do
not overtighten lock nuts as rod end of wing lift cylinder must slide freely in lift slot and bolt must rotate freely. Raise
and lower machine. Watch so hydraulic hoses do not tighten or get pinched, adjust hoses if necessary. Adjust wing
lift cylinder eye bolts so wings rest on center frame during transport. Tighten all Eye Bolts. Insure that cylinder attach
holes are aligned when eyebolts are tightened.
