3. Switch on the front attachment, by:
4
Switching on the safety switch (3) and the main
drive (impact switch 4).
4. Check the lowering speed of the Pickup and
adjust if necessary – see Setting the Pickup
lowering speed on page 8.6.
3
5. Set the ground pressure of the Pickup on the
potentiometer - see operating instructions for the
forage harvester or Setting the Contour-System
(Ground Pressure Control)on page 9.3.
6. Before entering the field of crops switch on the
Pickup at idle speed.
Attention!
The Pickup front attachments may only be
lowered to the mid range of the pendulum
travel.
Otherwise the Pickup could get damaged.
7. Lower the Pickup down to the working height.
8. Increase to working speed and enter the field of
crops.

Maintenance
Use only gearbox oil SAE 90 to (MIL-L-2105)
API GL-4-90 for lubricating the angle drive.
The filling quantity is 0.80 litres.

1 = Oil filling and check screw
2 = Oil draining screw
Environment!
Dispose of drained oil properly.

1 Oil change:
After starting to use for the first time or after a gearbox
overhaul, the first oil change should be undertaken
after 40 operating hours.
After this once yearly or every 500 operating hours.
Check the oil level every 50 operating hours.
(Fig. 1)
Tightening the drive chains
After the first 10 operating hours, all the chains
should be checked for tension.
Even when using the machine later, the chain tension
must be checked.
The steel roller chain is correctly tensioned if the slack
span of the chain, with a small load on the tight span,
can be pushed in by thumb pressure by about 2% of
the axial separation. In the case of new chains, the
tension needs to be checked more regularly.
2 Example: axial separation 500 mm = depression
movement on the slack span approx. 10 mm.
(Fig. 2)
Drive chain pick-up

To tighten the drive chain (3) proceed as follows:
• Remove the cover.
5
• Release the hex nuts (5).
• Move the chain tensioner (4) in the slotted holes
to the desired position.
• Retighten the hex nuts (5).
• Refit the cover.
