Pre Assembly Instructions:
Assembly of Kongskilde products should only be undertaken by authorized Kongskilde Dealers or an
approved service provider who has the necessary tools, equipment and training for safe handling and
proper assembly of the unit.
Proper handling and assembly of the components is critical in order to validate the warranty policy.
It is important to note that the frame components are heavy and somewhat awkward to handle. Proper
lifting devices such as overhead cranes, boom lifts or mobile lift trucks should be used at all times when
moving or handling the large frame components and must only be operated by individuals who have had
the proper safety training for using such devices. Proper steel assembly stands or support jacks should
also be used to support the frame components and prevent them from falling during assembly.
Recommended assembly tools include:
A full set of standard open or box end wrenches and sockets; assorted sizes of pin punches; a heavy
hammer and/or sledge hammer; a pry bar; a large adjustable wrench; and pair of visegrip or similar
type pliers.
Optional tools could include an all purpose jack and a good quality air or electric drive impact tool
with heavy drive sockets.
The assembly area should be should be large enough to allow workers and equipment to move around
freely during assembly of the unit.
For example; to fully assemble a 2900-90 with 29' (9m) working width, a minimum area of
30' x 40' (10m x 12m) with 16' (5m) overhead clearance is required to assemble and fold the
machine.
If the unit is to be assembled and folded indoors, additional clearance may be needed in the assembly
area.
The ceiling height and the size of the building exit door must also be considered in order to safely fold
and move the cultivator outdoor after assembly.
The floor area should be relatively clean and level.
Proper lighting and ventilation should also be provided to allow the work to be carried out in a safe
and efficient manner.
