Rockshaft Control

LX1030743-UN-14JAN03

A - Hitch control lever

B - Raise/lower switch

C - Height-limit control

The rockshaft is controlled by means of hitch control lever (A) and raise/lower switch (B). The lift height can be limited by means of the height-limit control (C).

To make the rockshaft ready for operation, start the engine and either:

• move control lever (A) to the position that corresponds to the position of draft links,
• move control lever (A) to one of the end positions, or
• actuate raise/lower switch (B).

Pull control (A) towards ”0” - raise implement
Push control (A) towards ”9” - lower implement

The implement can be raised and lowered independently of control lever (A) by means of raise/lower switch (B). This is of assistance when turning at the end of a field, for example. If the upper part of the raise/lower switch is pressed, the implement is raised as high as the setting at height-limit control (C). If the lower part of the raise/lower switch is pressed, the implement is lowered as far as the setting at control lever (A).

To obtain working depth more quickly in compact soil at the headland (quick lower), keep raise/lower switch (B) pressed. As long as raise/lower switch (B) is pressed, the adjusted draft force is not active (override function). If raise/lower switch (B) is released, the implement returns to the previous settings.

This "quick lower" function will only work if:

• the implement has been raised using switch (B)
• the implement is lowered continuously from raised position using switch (B)
