Rolling Basket Setup
Figure 168
The rolling basket (Item 1)
[Figure 168]
should
enter the ground a maximum of 2” (51 mm) for
all tilling depth.
For example, if rolling basket depth is 3” (76 mm),
adjust the height of the rolling basket 1” (25.4
mm) higher than the blade edge.
Major Height Adjustment
Adjust the roller mounting arm up or down on the
rear plate (Item 2)
[Figure 168] .
Minor Height Adjustment
Adjust the arm stops (Item 3) [Figure 168] up or
down.
Adjusting Spring Down Pressure
Recommended setting for the down pressure is
approximately 70 lb. / ft. (95.4 N•m).
Turn the 5/8” bolt (Item 4)
[Figure 168]
one
complete revolution to change spring tension
approximately 6.5 lb. (3 kg).
The spring should be tight enough so it does not
move freely in your hand.
Harrow Setup
Figure 169
Harrow Height
The height of harrow section must be adjusted to
match your tillage implement. Usually the bottom
of harrow tines should be even with bottom of
implement shovels.
Harrow height is adjusted by repositioning bolt
(Item 5)
[Figure 169] in one of six holes in arm
attaching bracket.
Leveling Harrow
Once the tillage implement has been set at desired
cutting depth, the harrow section must be leveled
to give a smooth uniformly finished field.
Leveling is accomplished by loosening bolt (Item
1) then relocating bolt (Item 2) in one of the six
sets of holes. Tighten bolt (Item 1) and (Item 2)
[Figure 169] after adjustment.
