10.1 Adjusting the working depth of the machine
•
The working depth is set by changing the position of the rollers against the frame of the
machine. This change is executed either mechanically using drawbars or hydraulically using
piston-rods according to the version of the machine.
Setting the depth using drawbars
1.
Set the working depth using the top pin on the slotted piece of the rear frame of the roller
according to Tab. 1. To release the pin, the machine has to be lifted in the arms of the tractor.

2.
When placing the machine on the roller, the bottom pin on the slotted piece of the rear frame must
be adjusted as close to the stop piece as possible. By positioning the tractor lower arms and
adjusting the third point bar of the tractor, the longitudinal plane of the machine is set, and thus an
even working depth of the first and second row of the discs is secured.
