Deutz Fahr KH 500 Tedder Operation

[dhm4020]

Hello,
I recently purchased a Deutz Fahr tedder/rake; model KH500.
I had to do some minor repairs, but in all it's in good shape.
My question is; and it may sound stupid, but how do you rake vs. ted with it?
I have attempted to find a operators manual pnline, through AGCO corp. and AGCO dealer, with no luck. I did find one, but unfortuntley I don't read German. If someone could advise on operation of unit that would be great, if someone had a manual they could scan and email that would be much appreciated.
I have used the unit ad a tedder but am confused on raking.
Thanks for any help.

To rake you need the two speed gearbox with two input shafts. Swap the PTO shaft from the input you are using to ted to the unused input shaft. In general, KH500's make for a lousy rake and a mediocre tedder.

Rick,
Thanks for the info, it does have the 2 speed gearbox. Sounds like I'll be sticking with my JD side delivery rake.

Does anyone have a source of parts for a KH500 other than Agco or DF?
