TRANSPORT PIN: When transporting the disk harrow, always lock it in transport position with the transport pin. If the
hydraulic cylinder is to be removed from the disk harrow, the transport pin should be installed before attempting to
remove the cylinder.
HYDRAULIC CYLINDER: Attach the rod end of the cylinder to the rockshaft lift arm and the butt end of the cylinder to
the main frame as shown above. A heavy duty ASAE 4 x 8 hydraulic cylinder with stroke control is recommended for
raising and lowering the disk harrow.
STORAGE: Proper storage will add to the life of your disk harrow, and assure its being in good condition for the next
season. The following procedure is recommended:
1.
Clean off all foreign matter, and lubricate the harrow.
2.
Repaint the harrow where the original paint has worn off.
3.
Coat the disk blades with a rust preventative.
4.
Tighten all loose bolts and replace any damaged or missing parts.
5.
All hydraulic cylinder rods should be fully retracted or coated with a rust preventative to prevent rusting in
storage.
WARNING REFLECTORS: Attach a reflector with both red and amber reflective surfaces as near as possible to the
extreme left rear part of the harrow. Mount the reflector so that the red surface is visible from the rear and the amber
surface is visible from the front. Attach a red reflector as near as possible to the extreme right rear part of the harrow
with the reflective surface visible from the rear.
SMV EMBLEM: The SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle) Emblem is a recommended attachment that should be added to your
harrow. The SMV Emblem and warning reflectors can be purchased from your authorized AMCO dealer. A mounting
bracket is located on the rear of the main frame for mounting a SMV Emblem.
WARNING LAMP: A warning lamp to be mounted on the extreme left hand rear of the harrow is available at your local
AMCO dealer.
CAUTION When transporting farm implements on public roads after dusk, it is the
responsibility of the operator to provide lighting and reflectors on the rear of the implement in
accordance with your state law.
CAUTION When trailing the harrow over public roads, the SMV Emblem must be used, for
protection of tractor and motor vehicle operators.
