Wing Axle Assembly

NOTE: Do not tighten the hardware until assembly is complete.

Refer to Figure 1-3

Wing axle locknuts are tightened for shipping purposes.

1.Loosen lock nuts (#1) slightly and rotate wing axles (#2) to install turnbuckles (#3).

2.Remove cap screws and locknuts (#4). Attach turnbuckles (#3) to the wing axles with existing cap screws and lock nuts (#4).

Hydraulic Plumbing

The cutter is equipped with one hydraulic cylinder in the center for lifting the cutter and one on each wing for folding of the wings independently. All cylinders on the cutter are single action (one-way) type and should not be plumbed for two-way operation.

Each duplex outlet on your tractor can perform only one operation. One outlet is needed for lifting the cutter and a second and third for lifting the wings independently of each other.

If the tractor being used does not have the required number of duplex outlets, an optional control valve kit is available from your dealer.

Your Dealer will be able to help you determine the best configuration to match your needs and your tractor.
