USER INSTRUCTIONS:
-
When the core collector and the Verti-Drain are well prepared, the core collector supports 17 can
be slided (X) onto the bushes 15. Secure it with R pins 19. The rear roller is of the ground, when
the core collector is attached. It the clearance is not enough, do NOT remove the rear roller (
since the weight is needed) but turn the roller up by taking on bearing bolt out.
-
The rear roller supports at the machine must float. So don’t lock them with pin 10 ( fig.2.)
-
Fit chain 20 with two D- shackles to support 17 and eye bolt 24. Ensure left and right are set at
the same length. Allow about 100 mm ( 4”) play, so the core collector can follow the ground
perfectly and is lifted when the machine is raised. When the working depth on the machine is
adjusted, the chain length need to be checked.
-
The rubber seal strip 12 is the first and major shovel, that should hold the cores. It should The
ground clearance should be about the core diameter and can be adjusted by choosing other holes
for bolts 7.
-
The blade springs 4 act as fine cleaner, because they can individually follow the ground contours.
The pressure can be set by tilting the main body plate 1 forwards or backwards (Y). This can be
achieved by adjusting the top and bottom eye bolt 9 position to the main plate 1.
-
The core collector can collect the core for a certain pass length. The length depends on the
amount of cores and the sizes.
-
If the area isn’t clean, check the gap between the rubber seal strip 12 and the blade spring tension
4. Extra weight on top of the core collector may help as well.
