3. If machine needs leveled from front to rear, remove
the snap wire pin from the turnbuckle lock ,
swing lock off turnbuckle and adjust the hitch
turnbuckle . When done adjusting, be sure and
swing turnbuckle lock back down and secure with
snap wire pin.
Refer to Figure 16
4. If machine is not level when fold cylinders are
completely extended, fold wings back up and instal
shims as needed to level.
Extra shims are stored in manual pak. The extra
shims may be needed in the future if the hinge holes
or bolts begin to wear. There are two different
thickness of shims, you may use multiple shims to
level wings.
5. Remove the two

bolts and either add
more shims to raise wings or take shims out to
lower wings.
6. Re-install bolts and tighten to specs, “
7. For best results, if at all possible, run machine at a
slight angle to the rows. This will improve trash flow
and allow for better dislodging of rootballs and will
help spread the residue more evenly across the field.
8. When you have machine level and set to the desired
working depth, set the depth stop on the depth
stop tube . This is located at the front of the
machine. This will maintain a constant depth each
time after raising and lowering machine.One full turn
of the handle will change the depth approximately
1
4
”.
If after setting the depth stop, the detent on the tractor
kicks out before the stop contacts the button on the
depth stop, slow the hydraulic flow speed down. If this
problem exists, contact the factory service
representative for other possible adjustments. On
tractors with a timed detent setting, set the detent so
when you raise the machine, the pump will run for
1
2
to 1 full second after full raise. If it runs longer than
this, damage to the seals of the lift cylinders may
result.
