MAINTENANCE

TO FIT NEW BELT

4.Ensure that the peg on rack assembly (A) engages in the front slot of cam plate assembly. (B) Fig. 26

5.Fit new drive belt around pulleys.

6.Draw the spring plate back into position and secure. Check that the spring finger (C) engages in the first couple of teeth on the rack assembly. Fig. 26

GREASE

STEERING RODS

Should not normally require resetting.

1.Loosen the rod lock nut (A). Fig. 11

2.Release the fixing bolt.

3.Turn the tie rod end to adjust for length. Clockwise to shorten, anti-clockwise to lengthen.

4.Replace the fixing bolt and tighten.

5.Tighten the rod lock nut.

6.Make sure the rod is free to pivot.

CUTTER HEAD TILT

This will not normally require resetting.

1.Loosen the U-Bracket nuts (B) Fig. 12

2.Adjust the nuts up or down to set tilt.

3.Model 160 (760mm cut) requires the back of the blade circle tilted 15mm above the front of the blade circle in low cut position.

4.Re-tighten all nuts.

If the spring finger engagement in the rack assembly is not at the start of the rack assembly, proceed as follows:-

7.Release the spring plate as per step (2)

8.Loosen the four locknuts (A) on the engine hold down bolts. Fig. 27

9.Loosen locknuts (B) on engine pulley guard and slide to the rear. Fig. 27

10.Adjust nyloc nut (C) on motor adjustment plate to move the engine to the rear and repeat step (6).

11.Re-tighten engine mounting bolts and re-position belt guard with 2-3mm clearance between belt guard and engine pulley.

STEERING STOPS

These will not normally require resetting.

1.Check if the steering segment gear rotates in both directions.

2.Loosen the locknut on the front beam and adjust the bolt till number of turns in both directions is equal.

3.Re-tighten the Locknut.

HEIGHT OF CUT ADJUSTMENT

To adjust the height of cut rotate the nyloc nut (A) situated under the centre of machine on the rear cutterhead support assembly. Adjust the nyloc nut to obtain low cut at front of blade circle of 15mm. Fig. 28

Fig. 27

NOTE:

After a period of time the drive belt will stretch past the limit of the auto-tensioner. The auto- tensioner can be reset to allow for this stretching by following the above instructions- steps (7) to (11). Re-grease the bearing area under cam plate when fitting new belt. Fig. 26

53179 specifications

Rover 53179 is an innovative rover designed for exploratory missions on distant planets, particularly in the challenging environments of Mars and the Moon. This advanced robotic vehicle showcases a variety of features, technologies, and characteristics that enable it to efficiently navigate and gather valuable data from extraterrestrial terrains.

One of the standout features of Rover 53179 is its robust mobility system. Equipped with six articulated wheels, the rover is designed to traverse a variety of surfaces, including rocky landscapes, sandy dunes, and steep inclines. The wheels are made of a lightweight yet durable composite material that provides both traction and flexibility, allowing the rover to maintain stability across uneven terrain.

The rover's power system is another key aspect of its design. It utilizes a combination of solar panels and advanced battery technology to ensure a continuous energy supply during day and night cycles. The solar panels are strategically placed to maximize sunlight absorption, while the batteries are optimized for quick charging and exceptional longevity, enabling prolonged operational periods during missions.

Rover 53179 is outfitted with an array of scientific instruments that facilitate data collection and analysis. This includes a high-resolution camera system capable of capturing 3D images and video, a spectrometer for analyzing soil and rock composition, and environmental sensors designed to monitor temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure. These instruments work in concert to provide crucial information that enhances our understanding of celestial bodies.

In terms of communication, the rover is equipped with a state-of-the-art communication system that allows for real-time data transmission back to mission control on Earth. It leverages both radio frequency and laser techniques to ensure reliable connectivity over vast distances, even in challenging environments.

Moreover, Rover 53179 incorporates advanced artificial intelligence algorithms to support autonomous navigation. This technology enables the rover to make independent decisions based on real-time data, thus optimizing its path and ensuring efficient exploration without constant oversight from Earth.

Rover 53179 exemplifies the pinnacle of modern robotics and space exploration technology. Its combination of robust mobility, advanced scientific capabilities, reliable power systems, and autonomous navigation positions it as a vital tool for uncovering the mysteries of our solar system. As we continue to explore the cosmos, rovers like 53179 will play an essential role in paving the way for future discoveries.
