2.6 Folding and Unfolding

2.6.1 Unfolding into the Work

Position

1. Fully raise the machine on the rear

transport axle and the front linkage /

drawbar cylinder (if fitted).

2. Pressure the wing lock cylinder (single

line, blue tie) to disengage the wing

lock.

3. Unfold the wings (yellow ties) and

continue to pressure down to ensure

they will hold in work.

4. On machines fitted with a clevis type

drawbar retract the drawbar cylinder

onto the shims.

5. Lower the machine into work.

2.6.2 Folding into the

Transport Position

1. Fully raise the machine on the rear

transport axle and the front linkage /

drawbar cylinder (if fitted).

2. Ensure wing lock hose is in the float

position (hooks are down). Fold

the machine ensuring the wing lock

engages.

3. Shut the taps on the axle cylinder to

secure it for transport. On machines

fitted with a clevis type drawbar retract

the drawbar cylinder onto the shims

(usually the amount used in work or a

single silver 51mm shim will suffice).

A lower transport height can be

achieved by using shims in the axle

cylinder if desired.

4. The machine is now ready for road

transport.

Road transport speed should not

exceed 25kmh (16mph).
