MAXIDISC
Side 21
 The MAXIDISC must be adjusted to operate in a perfectly level and horizontal posi-
tion, both parallel and perpendicular to the direction of travel, to obtain level and
uniform field finishing.
Hydraulic depth adjustment
Fig. 12
The penetration depth can be freely
adjusted during operation. Adjust the
depth by using the indicator (A) as a
guide.

If the packer roller sections are not working at the same depth, it is necessary to
reset the cylinders by moving them to the fully extended position and then return-
ing to the original starting depth.
Angle
The angle of the discs can be continuously adjusted hydraulically during operation,
enabling the operator to obtain the optimal setting according to field conditions. If
there are many patches of plant residue on the field, the angle can quickly be re-
duced to avoid blockage. The angle can also be reduced if the need for pulling force
becomes too great.
Travel Speed
A working speed between 8-15 km/hour is recommended, but always drive accord-
ing to conditions.
When travel speed is increased, wear on the implement is increased, especially
under dry soil conditions. Damage to the discs and T-rings may also result from
driving too fast under unfavourable conditions.
Power requirements
Power requirements change according to soil type, terrain and travel speed.
