Fore/Aft Leveling

The Terra Max® needs to run level front to rear and from side

to side. Though pre-leveling was done, you may still need to

change  this  slightly  once  you  go  to  the  field.  Fore  and Aft

cylinder is on the same circuit as the gang angle. It has to be

switched, adjusted and then switched back. Once this is set to

the tractor it should not require changing again.

Fore/Aft Adjustment

29. Be sure the switch (1) has Ford/Aft selected and adjust the

hydraulic cylinder (Red handles) on the hitch to bring the

front up and down until the machine is level front to back.

Be  sure  to  switch  back  to  Gang Angle  selection  when

finished. Never run the machine lower (deeper) in the rear

than in the front.

30. As far as leveling the wings to the center section, if the

wings were pre-leveled as shown in “

Wing Adjustment

”

on page 16, then further adjustment should be done with

the down pressure setting. If the wings are running low,

back  off  the  down  pressure.  If  wings  are  running  high,

increase  the  down  pressure,  see  “

Hydraulic  Down

Pressure

”  on  page 19,for  complete  down  pressure

adjustment.

31. If no down pressure is being used, set the wings to match

the depth of the center. Start by loosening jam nut (2) with

turnbuckle wrench (stored on rear pegs of hitch). Turn the

turnbuckle  (3)  to  adjust.  (Shorten  turnbuckle  to  run

shallower, lengthen to run deeper).

32. In a first time operation, it is generally best to operate the

unit at a slight angle to the rows. If the unit is used as a

secondary pass it is recommended to operate the unit at a

slight angle to the previous tillage pass. This will improve

trash flow and increase the leveling capability.
