Completing Setup

Reel Shipping Blocks

Refer to Figure 12

32. All seedbed conditioner baskets will be shipped with

shipping block with decal. Loosen spring and get pres-

sure off block, remove and discard blocks.

Spring Pre-Load

Refer to Figure 13

33. Now set the spring pre-load on all the seedbed condi-

tioner baskets to 8 3/8” from top of the spring to the top

of the cupped spring washer. Nuts should bottom out at

the end of the threads.

Note: Double check that all bolts are tightened to specs,

See “Torque Values Chart” on page 12. Check that

safety decals are readable and not covered up. Check

that safety lights are visible with machine folded for

transport.

34. Once baskets springs are pre-loaded and all of the

hydraulic procedures have been completed, fold the

machine to check for clearance and hose routing.

Slowly fold the machine while watching that hoses do

not become pinched or kinked.

35. Once the machine is folded completely, begin to unfold

slowly. Prior to transporting, fully raise and fold seed-

bed conditioner. Install the transport locks and wing

stop pins. Always use the transport locks and pins

when moving from ﬁeld to ﬁeld in case of a hydraulic

hose failure.

36. At this point, setup of the machine is complete, be sure

to consult the “Operator’s Manual”, for the ﬁrst time

ﬁeld adjustments before going to the ﬁeld.
