Preface: Dear customer! With its five tine units, the rotary power harrow type power harrow is an ideal implement for tilling the soil and preparing seed-beds on farms and in vineyards or orchards, as well as for row crops and specialty crops.
The power harrow is mounted on the tractor by means of a three-point suspension. It has five tine units; the tine pick-up is rigidly mounted. The gear mechanism is driven via a PTO shaft and drives the cutters in the housing via gear wheels.

The power harrow may only be started and stopped from the tractor driver’s seat. The power harrow may only be switched on when there is no-one within its range of operation and hazard area (radius of 10 m from the rotary harrow) due to the risk of objects, such as stones, being hurled away from the machine.

The rotary power harrow should always be placed on firm, level ground. The power harrow type LXG is designed and built to require as little maintenance and care as possible. However, the following points should be observed nevertheless: All nuts, bolts and screws must be examined after the first five hours of operation and then always before using the machine in order to ensure that they are secure.

Disengage the PTO shaft and then the rotary power harrow from the tractor. Remember to support it so that it cannot tip over inadvertently. Turn the power harrow over with the aid of hoisting gear so that the tines can be reached without difficulty.
High risk of injury due to moving machine parts and objects being hurled away from the machine, such as stones, etc. Never climb or reach in between the power harrow and the tractor with your arms or legs during operation of the machine – high risk of injury! (This is only permitted when the machine has been lowered to the ground and the tractor switched off.)

The cutter unit must never be operated when the power harrow is lifted off the ground. Driving a tractor on steep slopes can be dangerous. If work on steep slopes is unavoidable, great care should be exercised. Do not take bends too tightly.
