Adjustments and operations
Operations - Important points
• Retighten nuts and bolts after the first day of operation, as well as check
the conditions of all pins and cotter pins. Then, retighten every 24 hours of
service.
• Carefully observe the lubrication intervals.
• Choose a gear that allows the tractor to maintain certain power reserve,
ensuring against unpredictable efforts.
• The speed is relative to the tractor gear and can only be determined by local
conditions. We adopted an average 5 - 8 km/h, which is not advisable to
overcome to maintain service efficiency and prevent possible damages to
the equipment.
• Only people who own a complete knowledge of the tractor and equipment
must operate them.
• For hitching the equipment, perform the maneuvers in slow gear and on a
wide area, also being ready to brake when necessary.
• Remove pieces of wood or any object that may attach in the moldboard.
• Only pull the equipment using a tractor with enough engine power.
• During working or transportation, do not allow passengers on the tractor or
plow.
• Keep the lower arms of the tractor hydraulic lift adjusted.
• Keep the equipment centralized with the tractor and on the same level of the
soil surface.
• Never carry out the equipment reversion when it is supported on the ground.
• To carry out any verification on the equipment, lower it to the ground level
and shut down the tractor engine.
• Whenever you unhitch the equipment, either in the field or shed, do it on a
flat and firm surface and use parking jacks.
• Always make carefully and controlled operations.
• The correct tire inflation is important; keep the same pressure on all tires.
• The position and ripple hydraulic levers have fundamental functions. Carefully
check the instructions on the 'adjustments and operations' section (Cutting
depth page). Also, check the tractor manual for more information.
• Carry out the plowing job by following the contour lines, always throwing the
earth upwards.
• Keep a constant speed during the whole operation.
• Relieve the control valve pressure before disconnecting the quick couplers
and when doing any verification on the hydraulic cylinders / retention valves.
• As previously mentioned the AACRP plow has several settings, but only the
local conditions can determine its best adjustment.
