Transport
1
Raise the three point linkage as high as possible to
maximise ground clearance. Ensure that ground clearance
is sufficient.
2
Ensure that all linkage pins and security clips are fitted and
operate correctly.
3
Ensure lighting and oversize warning requirements meet
recommendations published by the Land Transport
Authority or equivalent.
4
Ensure vehicle requirements are adequate for the linkage
machine, e.g. mass, brakes. Refer to the recommendations
published by the local Land Transport Authority or
equivalent.
Operation
General Guidelines
1
Use a sufficiently powerful tractor which is heavy enough
to operate the machine safely.
2
Typical travel speeds when cultivating range from 10 -
14km/hr in good conditions. Slower speeds may be more
suitable in less ideal conditions.
3
Check that the cultivator is level during cultivation.
4
The crumbler is for breaking clods and reducing ridging,
not for depth control. Excess crumbler loading will over
stress the crumbler and framework, and will provide poorer
performance in minimising ridging.
5
Raise the cultivator out of the ground before turning, to
prevent tine breakages and excess stress on the
framework.
6
Recommended Hp
.
Tillage results will be affected by the Hp. The figures here
are guidelines only, and will depend on ground conditions.
Caution
: Using a tractor with excessive Hp can overload
the framework.
