OPERATION
The linkage can be adjusted with the rakes installed ONLY if the left wing is locked in the
transport position. If the wing is allowed to extend to the point where the caster wheel is on
the axle ramp, the rake can fall rapidly and possibly cause an injury.
6.4 Adjusting Ground Pressure
1. When set properly, individual rake wheels should be light enough to float over the ground while maintaining
a constant ground speed. Each adjustable chain is equipped with a threaded rod that is used to balance
weight of the left and right side, and to make any fine adjustments. The chain has three flexible links. If the
illustrated settings do not flatten or bow down the leaf spring as shown, then relocate the clevis on the
second chain link and readjust.
