5.3 Use
Make sure it is possible to use this type of attachment at the operating area. Some areas
may get damaged when mixing the surface materials with this attachment.
Before starting to work:
It is important to check the adjustments of the cultivator before using it for the first time. Actual correct settings
depend heavily on the material and factors such as compactness or moisture of the material. Begin with tines
adjusted higher than the roller to avoid unnecessary or damaging mixing of the lower materials of the arena.
There are several important adjustments that must be made for optimal performance and finish:
1 Adjust the towbar height .
Remove the pin and adjust the
towbar height/angle according to
the height of the trailer hitch on the
loader.
The towbar should be adjusted so
that the frame of the cultivator is
level when it is coupled to the
loader. Use the nose wheel as
necessary.
2 Lock the towbar to the loader trailer
hitch. Lift the support wheel
completely up.
3 Adjust the balance between the
rear roller and the tines , by using
the handle at the rear.
If needed, the cultivator can be lifted
so that the tines will not touch the
ground.

the leveller arm.

better (B). Place the pin above the
slot.
