8. Stop tractor engine, set park brake, remove

ignition key and wait for all moving parts to

stop before servicing, adjusting, repairing or

unplugging.

9. Review safety related items with all operators

annually.

YOU are responsible for the safe operation and

maintenance of your Degelman Strawmaster.

YOU must ensure that you and anyone else who

is going to operate, maintain or work around the

Strawmaster be familiar with the operating and

maintenance procedures and related SAFETY

information contained in this manual.

This manual will take you step-by-step through

your working day and alerts you to all good safety

practices that should be adhered to while operating

this equipment.

Remember, YOU are the key to safety. Good safety

practices not only protect you but also the people

around you. Make these practices a working

part of your safety program. Be certain that

EVERYONE operating this equipment is familiar

with the recommended operating and maintenance

procedures and follows all the safety precautions.

Most accidents can be prevented. Do not risk injury

or death by ignoring good safety practices.

• Strawmaster owners must give operating

instructions to operators or employees before

allowing them to operate the Strawmaster,

and at least annually thereafter per OSHA

regulation 1928.51.

• The most important safety device on this

equipment is a SAFE operator. It is the opera-

tor’s responsibility to read and understand

ALL Safety and Operating instructions in the

manual and to follow these. All accidents can

be avoided.

• A person who has not read and under-

stood all operating and safety instructions

is not qualiﬁed to operate the machine. An

untrained operator exposes himself and by-

standers to possible serious injury or death.

• Do not modify the equipment in any way.

Unauthorized modiﬁcation may impair the

function and/or safety and could affect the

life of the equipment.

• Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY!

1. Review the Operator’s Manual and all safety

items before working with, maintaining or

operating the Strawmaster.

2. Stop the tractor engine, set park brake, remove

ignition key and wait for all moving parts to

stop before servicing, adjusting, repairing or

unplugging.

3. Keep hands, feet, clothing and hair away from

all moving and/or rotating parts.

4. Clear the area of bystanders, especially

children, when carrying out any maintenance

and repairs or making any adjustments.

5. Place safety stands or large blocks under the

frame before removing tires or working beneath

the machine.

6. Be careful when working around or maintaining

a high-pressure hydraulic system. Wear proper

eye and hand protection when searching for

a high pressure hydraulic leak. Use a piece

of wood or cardboard as a backstop when

searching for a pin hole leak in a hose or a

ﬁtting.

7. Always relieve pressure before disconnecting or

working on hydraulic system.

1. Read and understand the Operator’s Manual

and all safety signs before using.

2. Stop tractor engine, set park brake, remove

ignition key and wait for all moving parts to

stop before servicing, adjusting, repairing or

unplugging.

3. Keep hands, feet, hair and clothing away from

all moving and/or rotating parts.

4. Do not allow riders on the Strawmaster or

tractor during operation or transporting.

5. Keep all shields and guards in place when

operating.

6. Clear the area of all bystanders, especially

children, before starting.

7. Do not operate machine on steep side hills or

slopes.

8. Be careful when working around or

maintaining a high-pressure hydraulic system.

Ensure all components are tight and in good

repair before starting.

9. Clean all reﬂectors, lights and the SMV sign

before transporting on a highway or public

road. Be sure to check with local highway

authorities and comply with their lighting

requirements.

1. Always place all tractor hydraulic controls in

neutral before dismounting.

2. Make sure that all components in the hydraulic

system are kept in good condition and are

clean.

3. Replace any worn, cut, abraded, ﬂattened or

crimped hoses and metal lines.

4. Do not attempt any makeshift repairs to the

hydraulic lines, ﬁttings or hoses by using tape,

clamps or cements. The hydraulic system

operates under extremely high-pressure.

Such repairs will fail suddenly and create a

hazardous and unsafe condition.

5. Wear proper hand and eye

protection when searching

for a high-pressure hydraulic

leak. Use a piece of wood

or cardboard as a backstop

instead of hands to isolate

and identify a leak.

6. If injured by a concentrated high-pressure

stream of hydraulic ﬂuid, seek medical attention

immediately. Serious infection or toxic reaction

can develop from hydraulic ﬂuid piercing the

skin surface.

7. Before applying pressure to the system, make

sure all components are tight and that lines,

hoses and couplings are not damaged.

• Think SAFETY! Work SAFELY

1. Read and understand ALL the information in the

Operator’s Manual regarding procedures and

SAFETY when operating the Strawmaster in the

ﬁeld/yard or on the road.

2. Check with local authorities regarding machine

transport on public roads. Obey all applicable

laws and regulations.

3. Always travel at a safe speed. Use caution

when making corners or meeting trafﬁc.

4. Make sure the SMV (Slow Moving Vehicle)

emblem and all the lights and reﬂectors that are

required by the local highway and transport

authorities are in place, are clean and can be

seen clearly by all overtaking and oncoming

trafﬁc.

5. Keep to the right and yield the right-of-way to

allow faster trafﬁc to pass. Drive on the road

shoulder, if permitted by law.

6. Always use hazard warning ﬂashers on tractor

when transporting unless prohibited by law.

7. Always use a pin with provisions for a

mechanical retainer and a safety chain when

attaching to a tractor or towing vehicle.

1. Failure to follow proper procedures when

mounting a tire on a wheel or rim can produce

a blow out which may result in serious injury or

death.

2. Do not attempt to mount a tire unless you have

the proper equipment and experience to do the

job.

3. Have a qualiﬁed tire dealer or repair

serviceman perform required tire maintenance.

The Strawmaster harrow sections consist of four rows

with eight tines per row which hold the straw.

As the tines drag along the ground, they oscillate

to build up a high frequency vibration and

provide a shattering

action which breaks up

the straw allowing the

residue to be spread

evenly as it is released.

When stood vertically

the tines will rake ﬂax

residue.

Operation

The Degelman Strawmaster is designed for

effective straw management, weed control,

herbicide application, raking ﬂax residue and

following ground contour. The Strawmaster is

fully adjustable from tine angle to operating

height with the use of gear driven jacks or

optional hydraulics. The harrow sections can

operate in a ﬂoat position or under a variable

amount of pressure with the use of hydraulics and

spring bars.

It is the responsibility of the owner or operator

to read this manual carefully to learn how to

operate the machine safely, and how to set it to

provide maximum efﬁciency. Safety is everyone’s

business. By following safe operating practices, a

safe environment is provided for the operator and

bystanders.

The manual will take you step-by-step through

your working day. By following the operating

instructions in conjunction with a good

maintenance program your machine will provide

many years of trouble-free service.

TO THE NEW OPERATOR OR OWNER BRIEF OVERVIEW OF OPERATION

• Operating speed will depend on tractor

horsepower, environmental conditions and each

particular operation. A speed of 8 to 12 MPH.

(12 to 16 KPH) is suggested to efﬁciently shatter

and spread straw and residue.

• Operating height for the harrow will vary with

the length of the tines, and the angle that the

tines are set at. As the tines wear down, the

height of the machine from the ground will have

to be adjusted down proportionally. (Refer to

the Height Adjustments section)

• The harrow sections can be set in ﬂoat position,

where the section drags the ground under its

own weight.

• Pressure can be applied using the hydraulics

to rotate the beam further back. The spring

bars will deﬂect to apply pressure to the

harrow section and the ground. The amount of

pressure to apply will depend

on the application,

and the operator’s

preference.

• Some suggested settings can be found in the

“Suggested Tine Angle Settings” section. As

there are only a few standard guidelines, feel

free to experiment with ground clearance, tine

angle and section pressure to obtain desired

results for each operation.
