Torque Limiter / Slip Clutch

January 7, 2014

Torque Limiter / Slip Clutch

A Torque Limiter is implemented when an implement exceeds the front PTO horsepower.
This Torque limiter under extreme load will slip loose allowing all overload on the front PTO and tractor to be released, Once the front PTO of the tractor is turned off the torque limiter will click back into place allowing the use of the front implement again.
Therefore saving the front Pto and the tractor. This torque limiter is mostly used on our 540rpm gearboxes which are put on tractors over 100 hp engine.

Short Lift Arm Kit

A Short Lift Arm Kit can be supplied with a front 3pt hitch when a client requests his or her implement closer to the tractor or needs more lifting capacity because of the implement stretching out so far in front of the tractor.
This kit is a benefit when working in tight areas such as a vineyard or orchard. Please Note: The Maximum allowable lifting capacity cannot exceed that of the front hitches writen lifting capacity on the serial No.

Implement A Frame

This frame can carry implement up to a maximum weight of 1000kg (2200 lbs). Available in Cat 1 or Cat 2.
This implement A Frame can be mounted on the front or rear of the tractor. Also available is a female A Frame (Implement half) which gets welded to the implement for the quick attach A frame to hook up to.

Position Limitation Kit

The Kit can be mounted as a height limitation or a depth Limitation, depends on the way the valve is mounted on the multivalve. Valve will be mounted directly on the already present multivalve (no extra hoses required).
Position limitation (height or depth) can be adjusted at the lift frame (see graphics below) Only available for all the Zuidberg linkages which are equipped with a cast iron lift frame (so universal and equipped with a cast iron lift frame (so universal and also for after sales on existing front linkages!)
System can be activated by a switch which will be mounted inside the cabin of the tractor. The set can not be used on linkages with a welded lift frame and on the integrated linkage for the NH M-60 series, NH TM and Case MXM.

Hydraulic Top Link (3rd Link)

The Hydraulic top links are offered in either an Cat 1, Cat 2, Cat 3 and or Cat 4. Also depending on the application a heavier duty toplink will be used for heavy lifting or if a longer stroke or reach is needed the top link will be equipped accordingly.
These hydraulic toplinks can be mounted to the front hitch or rear 3pt hitch of the tractor.

Heavy Duty Arm Kit (HDAK)

The Heavy duty arm kit replaces the existing arms on the front hitch with 2 new arms that have holes drilled in on each arm to mount the cross tube. This cross tube holds both arms together in the locked position when using the front hitch in an ground engaging application.
This heavy duty arm kit ensures that the front hitch has no free play in the arms. When an pto driven implement is hooked up to the front 3pt hitch the cross tube must be dismounted by 4 bolts which takes approx 4 – 6 minutes.
This will allow the implement shaft from the implement to have no interference with our linkage. The heavy duty arm kit will fit on front hitches 8kN (1760 lbs) – 60kN (13200 lbs).

Large Plate Cooler

The Large Plate Cooler will increase the cooling capacity of the front PTO by 3 times. This oil cooler would replace the existing original plate cooler that is supplied with the Pto kit.
The large plate cooler would be used in heavy duty applications such as snowblowing, composting or in forestry use when the front PTO is put under extreme load.

Lowering Speed Adjustment Kit (Load Independent)

This lowering speed adjustment kit can adjust the lowering speed of the linkage. This kit has been designed for a direct connection to the multi-valve but is also standard suitable for a 12mm pipe connection.
When the multi-valve is positioned for single acting, you can adjust the oil flow with the blue button and thus the lowering of the linkage.
Execution of the system: Easy in fitting and easy to use. Can be fitted on every Zuidberg front linkage. Can be fitted on standard 12mm pipe (excluding hydraulic coupling) for example when there is no space at the multi-valve. Can be retro fitted.

Municipal Frame

This municipal frame is produced according the France Norm and DIN (Deutche Industrie Norm) A, B, F1 and F2 Standard.
You can fit this frame easy direct on a Zuidberg 13kN, 18kN, 28kN and 35kN and now as well on a 50kN iron casting base frame of the front linkage, however not suitable for the integrated linkage for the NH M – and TM-series and for the Case MXM.
Thus a quick changing from front-linkage to a tight municipal Frame (and visa versa) is easily made. As you can see from the pictures below the municipal frame is short and directly placed on the base lift frame. This assures stability and strength.

Front Remote Control Button

For effortless use of the front linkage when connecting to Implements.
Only available for tractors with electronic spool valves and only if the tractors electronics are prepared for use of a front remote control (External up and down button). This is mounted to the side of the front hitch.
