BEFORE OPERATING ADJUSTING TINE PENETRATION To adjust equally on both sides: 1. Loosen cap screws securing the height adjusters {Fig. 18). Raise adjusters unfit bolt bottoms —outing slot. Figure 18 1. Height Adjuster 2 Height Adjuster Mounting Scarecrows & Flat washers 2. Maximum penetration depth of 5 in. (12.7 cm) for 7/8 in.(2 tine) and 3 cm} for 3/4 in.(B tine) configurations is achieved with height adjusters bottomed-out in slots. To adjust for less penetration, lower height adjusters; L.e.
BEFORE OPERATING TIMING THE AERATOR TO THE TRACTOR Tractor Preparation To operate the fairway aerator, the tractor must meet the following: 1. PTQ rpm must be 540 at normal engine operating speed, 2. With PTO operating at 540 rpm, a transmission gear must be selected that allows tractor to operate 100 feet (30.5 m} within 3038 seconds [1.8 ~ 2.2 mph (2.9 ~ 3.5 km/hrj].
BEFORE OPERATING 3. In direction of machine travel, measure the distance between tine holes (one tine penetration stroke to another}. Depending on tine configuration, the distance should be: 7/8In. thees — 6 In. (14.6 to 15.2 mm} 3/4 In. tines ~ 2~7/8 1o Jin. (7.3 to 7.62 mmy) Note: Condition of the turf around the holes can also indicate how well the tractor is matched to the aerator. If the rear of the tine holes are torn, the tractor speed is too slow.
OPERATION 4. Always clear the area of all damaged machine parts, such as broken tines, enc, to prevent their being picked up by mowers or other turf maintenance equipment. §. Replace broken tines, and inspect and correct damage to those still usable. Repair any other machine damage before commencing operation, TRANSPORT OPERATION To begin transport operation, raise the coring head, disengage the PTO and set the parking brake. Raise each coring head stand and lower the coring head anti the stands.
GREASING FITTINGS Note: It is a good practice to lubricate the machine after washing machine. The Fairway Aerator has grease fittings that must be Lubricated with No. 2 General Purpose Lithium Base grease. Some require greasing daily, others every 25 hours operation, or seasonally, whichever comes first. Use a hand grease gun for all fittings, Disconnect one end of the driveling (0 access the center grease fittings. Figure 28 GREASE THE FOLLOWING FITTINGS DAILY: 1. Driveshaft Ends (2} 3. Drive shaft Says.
LUBRICATION = Figure 31 1. Rear Wheals (2) GREASE FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS Grease the front wheel bearings annually, 1. Brock the rear wheels to prevent the machine from moving. 2. Support the front frame on blocks and remove the front whee! and hub assembly (Fig. 32). i Figure 32 1. Lift Cylinder (2] 2. Steering Axis King Pin 3. Repack the bearings with wheel bearing grease and re-install. CHECK RESERVOIR LEVEL Every 25 hours operation, or seasonally, whichever comes first, check oil level in the reservoir. 1.
LUBRICATION Figure 35 1. Fight Angle Gear Case 2. Gear Case Fil Plug CHECK PICK-OFF GEAR CASE OIL LEVEL Every 25 hours operation, or seasonally, whichever comes first, check oil level in the pick—off gear case. 1. With the machine on a level surface, remove the gear case cover {Fig. 36). Figure 36 1. Pick—off Gere Case 2. Gear Case Cover 2. The oil level should be to the center of the gear shafts (Fig. 37). The level is low, add SAE EP 90W gear oil and install the cover. [ e Figure 37 1.
MAINTENANCE Figure 39 1. Stamper Assembly 2. Move Laterally—both Directions 2. Remove the roll pin securing the castle nutty the top crankshaft (Fig. 37).
