Only Original Parts, makes your machine a Vicon
Vicon rakes are known for being low maintenance. However being prepared for the coming season by giving your machine a preseason health check will ensure top performance whilst keeping downtime to a minimum.
Ensure all safety guarding is fitted and functions correctly.
Check the condition and pressures of all tyres. Replace or adjust if necessary.
Check all steering and pivots points. Greasing if necessary.
Check the condition and functionality of all Road lights. Repair/replace if necessary.
Check all Tines, safety fixings and Tine arms for wear or damage. Ensure all fixings are tight. Replace if necessary
Make sure all PTO drive lines and joints are clean and lubricated.
Check all hydraulic hoses and connections. Replace if necessary.
Tines
The flexible Vicon Rake Tines do not touch the ground during work,
significantly reducing the risk of dirt being collected into the windrow. The durable tines leave a fluffy and well-shaped windrow.

Tine safety
Damage to both livestock and machinery can be avoided by fitting Tine Safety clips to all tines. Mounted below the coil securing both tine legs - the safety device holds both halves of the tine together to prevent it from being lost in the crop.
