PRE-OPERATION CHECK LIST

(OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY)

NOTICE

■This Pre-Operation Check List is provided for the operator. It is important to follow for both per- sonal safety and maintenance of the flail shredder.

___ Check all lubrication points and grease as instructed in Lubrication Service Record, page

 

27.

___

Use only a tractor of adequate power and weight

 

to pull the unit. (See chart below.)

___

Check that the unit is properly attached to the

 

tractor. On pull-type unit, be sure there is a

 

mechanical retainer through the drawbar pin and

 

the safety chain is installed. On 3-point hitch

 

units, be sure retainers are used on the mounting

 

pins.

___

Check oil level in gearbox. Add oil as required.

___

Check that the PTO driveline turns freely and that

 

the driveline can telescope easily.

___

Check tire pressure. Inflate to specified level.

___

Check flails. Inspect for damage or breakage.

 

Make sure they swing freely on their mount.

 

Repair or replace as required.

___

Check condition of cutter blade (if so equipped).

___

Inspect all hydraulic lines, hoses, couplers, and

 

fittings. Tighten, repair, or replace any leaking or

 

damaged components.

___

Install and secure all guards, doors, and covers.

___

Check PTO clutch operation (see . Weasler Mod-

 

ular Friction Clutch (24K), page 33).

CHOOSING THE CORRECT TRACTOR

To ensure safe and reliable operation of the flail shred- der, 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 horse- power 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 recom- mend that each tractor be equipped with a full comple- ment 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.
