CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

A CAUTION Our Company does NOT sell replacement Tires In addition Tire mounshyting repair and replacement should ONLY

be attempted by a qualified tire manufacturers represhysentative or by properly trained personnel following the tire manufacturers instruction If you do NOT have such instructions contact your tire dealer or the Company

Check the Rake Tire pressure after every 50 hours of operation Tires should be inflated to 28 PSIG (196 kPa) Wheel Bolt torques should also be checked after every 50 hours of operashytion and tightened with 110 ft-Ib (150 Nm) torque

Fig 7-2 Adjustable Wheel

A WARNING Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous Whenever possible trained personnel should be called to service andl

or mount tires In addition do NOT place fingers on tire bead during inflation serious injury or amputation could result In any event to avoid possible fatal or serious injury follow the safety precautions below

BE SURE the Rim is clean and free of rust

Lubricate both the tire beads and rim flanges with a soap solution Do NOT use oil or grease

Use a clip-on tire chuck with a remote hose and gauge which allows you to stand clear of the tire while inflating it

NEVER inflate beyond 35 PSI (240 kPa) to seat the beads If beads have NOT seated by the time the pressure reaches 35 PSI deflate the assembly reposition the tire on the rim relubricate both parts and reinflate it Inflation pressure beyond 35 PSI with unseated beads may break the bead or rim with explosive force sufficient to cause fatal or serious injury After seating the beads adjust the inflation pressure to the recommenshyded operating pressure listed

Do NOT weld braze or otherwise attempt to repair and use a damaged rim

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

TIRES amp WHEELS (See Figs 7-2 amp 7-3)

A CAUTION Our Company does NOT sell replacement Tires In addition Tire mounshyting repair and replacement should ONLY

be attempted by a qualified tire manufacturers represhysentative or by properly trained personnel following the tire manufacturers instruction If you do NOT have such instructions contact your tire dealer or the Company

Check the Rake Tire pressure after every 50 hours of operation Tires should be inflated to 28 PSIG (196 kPa) Wheel Bolt torques should also be checked after every 50 hours of operashytion and tightened with 110 ft-Ib (150 Nm) torque

Fig 7-2 Adjustable Wheel

A WARNING Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous Whenever possible trained personnel should be called to service andl

or mount tires In addition do NOT place fingers on tire bead during inflation serious injury or amputation could result In any event to avoid possible fatal or serious injury follow the safety precautions below

BE SURE the Rim is clean and free of rust

Lubricate both the tire beads and rim flanges with a soap solution Do NOT use oil or grease

Use a clip-on tire chuck with a remote hose and gauge which allows you to stand clear of the tire while inflating it

NEVER inflate beyond 35 PSI (240 kPa) to seat the beads If beads have NOT seated by the time the pressure reaches 35 PSI deflate the assembly reposition the tire on the rim relubricate both parts and reinflate it Inflation pressure beyond 35 PSI with unseated beads may break the bead or rim with explosive force sufficient to cause fatal or serious injury After seating the beads adjust the inflation pressure to the recommenshyded operating pressure listed

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

TIRES amp WHEELS (See Figs 7-2 amp 7-3)

A CAUTION Our Company does NOT sell replacement Tires In addition Tire mounshyting repair and replacement should ONLY

be attempted by a qualified tire manufacturers represhysentative or by properly trained personnel following the tire manufacturers instruction If you do NOT have such instructions contact your tire dealer or the Company

Check the Rake Tire pressure after every 50 hours of operation Tires should be inflated to 28 PSIG (196 kPa) Wheel Bolt torques should also be checked after every 50 hours of operashytion and tightened with 110 ft-Ib (150 Nm) torque

Fig 7-2 Adjustable Wheel

A WARNING Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous Whenever possible trained personnel should be called to service andl

or mount tires In addition do NOT place fingers on tire bead during inflation serious injury or amputation could result In any event to avoid possible fatal or serious injury follow the safety precautions below

BE SURE the Rim is clean and free of rust

Lubricate both the tire beads and rim flanges with a soap solution Do NOT use oil or grease

Use a clip-on tire chuck with a remote hose and gauge which allows you to stand clear of the tire while inflating it

NEVER inflate beyond 35 PSI (240 kPa) to seat the beads If beads have NOT seated by the time the pressure reaches 35 PSI deflate the assembly reposition the tire on the rim relubricate both parts and reinflate it Inflation pressure beyond 35 PSI with unseated beads may break the bead or rim with explosive force sufficient to cause fatal or serious injury After seating the beads adjust the inflation pressure to the recommenshyded operating pressure listed

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

CHAPTER 5 OPERATION

A CAUTION BEFORE starting the tractor

engine and operating the Finger Wheel Rake for the first time review and comply

with ALL SAFETY recommendations set forth in the SAFETY chapter of this manual

EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

In an emergency or in case material or a foreign object becomes lodged in or between the Finger Wheels stop Rake operation IMMEDIATELY by stopping tractor forward movement

A C~UrION Following the MANDATORY SAFETY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE shut the tractor engine off and remove the ignition

key and take it with you before leaving the tractor seat to remedy the problem

GENERAL INFORMATION (Figs 5-1 5-2 amp 5-3)

The GEHL 217 and 219 Finger Wheel Rakes are suitable for raking hay straw grass etc Both models feature two large diameter ground Wheels one adjustable and one free to pivot The setting of the Adjustable Wheel establishes the working width of the Rake The position of the Rake with respect to the tractor is determined by the Drawbar connection to the tractor Best maneuverability is achieved by coupling the Drawbar directly to the swinging hitch drawbar of the tractor or to an aligning hole in the 3-point linkage drawbar

Fig 5-1

MOUNTING TO TRACTOR (Fig 5-3)

It is advisable to attach the 217 or 219 to the swinging hitch dra wbar of the tractor with a locking hitch pin at a height of 16 (405 mm) from the ground For tractors that do NOT have a swinging hitch drawbar the Rake Drawbar can be hooked onto the tractor 3-point linkage drawbar in the same manner provided it is stabilized from moving sideways Fix the height of

the 3-point linkage drawbar with the tractors hydraulic control lever stop as applicable After the Drawbar is connected plug the Hydraulic Lift Control Cylinder Hose Quick Disconnect into an appropriate remote outlet on the tractor

Fig 5-2 Drawbar in Transport Position

Proceed to adjust the Rake width following details in the Adjustments chapter or place the Rake in the Transport position for highway travel following details under the next topic

Fig 5-3 Rake Connected to Tractor Swing Hitch Drawbar

TRANSPORTING (Figs 5-4 amp5-5 ampsee Figs 5-1 5-2 amp5-3)

A CAUTION BEFORE transporting the Rake over a public highway make sure that the Rake is aHached to the tractor with a locking

hitch pin and that the Finger Wheels are raised to the transport position and that the Lift System is locked in the Transport position

10

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

Fig 5-4 Lift System Locked in Transport Position

For transporting either model Rake on a public highway first bring the Finger Wheels to their maximum raised position by fully extending the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder Then install the Transport Pin through the hole in the Lift Tube and secure it with the Lock Pin Next move the Adjustable (Steering) Wheel to the Transport position and lock it in this position Then move the Drawbar to its narrowest setting BE SURE the Parking Stand is placed in the storage position BEFORE proceeding to transport the Rake

Fig 5-5 Adjustable (Steering) Wheel Locked in Transport Position

A CAUTION Because of the overall length of either model Rake BE SURE to install and use a Slow-moving Vehicle Emblem (SMV)

using the Emblem Mounting Bracket provided

When desired or where required a safety chain should also be obtained and used as a secondary coupling between the tractor and Rake Drawbar

RAKE OPERATION (Figs 5-6 thru 5-10)

Operation for either model Rake is quite similar with the 219 model having two additional Finger Wheels extending from the end ofthe Main Frame to provide a nominal 64 (1625 mm)

of additional raking width The way both model Rakes are setup the Finger Wheels will rotate to the right (clockwise) and the crop will traverse from right to left

Fig 5-6

Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is most important to achieving clean raking If too much pressure is applied against the ground unnecessary dirt and trash will be brought into the windrow Although either model Rake has a considerably large working width when working in grass or hay it is recshyommended that the windrow is made NO larger than the pickup capacity of the baler or harvester In straw or other light crops the maximum width can be utilized

For raking with either model Rake it is advisable to start in the center of the field and rake in a counterclockwise direction To make the first windrow place the Adjustable Wheel in hole position B After t)ie first pass use the Hydraulic Lift Cylinder to raise the Finger Wheels Then turn around lower the Finger Wheels and rake the second and first windrows into one combined windrow Reposition the Adjustable Wheel to hole position C or D for a wider raking width and proceed to rake the rest of the field At the end rake the headlands

CHAPTER 6 TMENTS

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment

3 Parking Stand 4 Pivot points of the Rake Arms (7 or 9 Places) 5 Lift Rod Pivot Points 6 Drawbar Pivot Points 7 Drawbar Pin

TIRES amp WHEELS (See Figs 7-2 amp 7-3)

A CAUTION Our Company does NOT sell replacement Tires In addition Tire mounshyting repair and replacement should ONLY

be attempted by a qualified tire manufacturers represhysentative or by properly trained personnel following the tire manufacturers instruction If you do NOT have such instructions contact your tire dealer or the Company

Check the Rake Tire pressure after every 50 hours of operation Tires should be inflated to 28 PSIG (196 kPa) Wheel Bolt torques should also be checked after every 50 hours of operashytion and tightened with 110 ft-Ib (150 Nm) torque

Fig 7-2 Adjustable Wheel

A WARNING Inflating or servicing tires can be dangerous Whenever possible trained personnel should be called to service andl

or mount tires In addition do NOT place fingers on tire bead during inflation serious injury or amputation could result In any event to avoid possible fatal or serious injury follow the safety precautions below

BE SURE the Rim is clean and free of rust

Lubricate both the tire beads and rim flanges with a soap solution Do NOT use oil or grease

Use a clip-on tire chuck with a remote hose and gauge which allows you to stand clear of the tire while inflating it

NEVER inflate beyond 35 PSI (240 kPa) to seat the beads If beads have NOT seated by the time the pressure reaches 35 PSI deflate the assembly reposition the tire on the rim relubricate both parts and reinflate it Inflation pressure beyond 35 PSI with unseated beads may break the bead or rim with explosive force sufficient to cause fatal or serious injury After seating the beads adjust the inflation pressure to the recommenshyded operating pressure listed

Do NOT weld braze or otherwise attempt to repair and use a damaged rim

CAUTION BEFORE proceeding to make any adjustments on the Finger Wheel Rake BE SURE to follow the MANDATORY SAFEshy

TY SHUTDOWN PROCEDURE and place the tractor transmission in park andor lock the brakes to shut off the engine and to remove the ignition key and take it with you BEFORE leaving the tractor seat

GROUND PRESSURE (Fig 6-1)

NOTE Proper Finger Wheel pressure on the ground is an important factor for achieving clean raking Too much pressure will cause undue stress on the Finger Wheel Tines and cause unnecessary dirt and trash to be brought into the windrow

The Finger Wheels are linked to the Frame by Rake Arms BE SURE that the Rake Arms are free to pivot and proceed to adjust the ground pressure in the following manner

1 Place the tractor and connected Rake on a flat base

2 Connect the Lift Cylinder Hose to the tractor remote outlet

3 Lower the Finger Wheels until they just touch the ground

4 Check the ground pressure of each Finger Wheel by lifting each Finger Wheel assembly

5 Adjust the anchor point of the Lift Spring to the appropriate Chain Links position to balance all the Finger Wheels evenly

While raking the ground pressure is correct if the crop is raked away cleanly Too great a ground pressure will tend to distort the windrow cause dirt to get into the crop and cause undue Tooth wear

WORKING WIDTH (Figs 6-2 6-3 amp 6-4)

The Rake working width is set with the Adjustable Wheel The Rake position with respect to the tractor is adjusted with the Drawbar It is recommended that the Drawbar be attached to the swinging hitch of the tractor For optional hookup to the 3-point linkage drawbar of the tractor the Rake can be connected in a hole farther to the right to obtain a better tractor-Rake tracking and alignment
