8.2.1 Cutting height
The desired cutting height is obtained directly by
adjusting the top link length. The height can be
adjusted from 30 to 80 mm (1.1’’ - 3.1’’) (according
to the tractor).
To obtain a different cutting height:
- Place the machine in transport position.
- Lower the machine on the ground to remove weight
from the top link.
- Modify the top link length to alter the machine tilt
angle.
- Use mowing unit lift cylinder to lift the mowing unit.
- Place the machine in working position
- Check cutting height.
The maximum cutting height (L1 = 60 mm (
2.4’’
))
is obtained when the discs are parallel to the
ground.
The minimum cutting height must not be below
(L2 = 30 mm (
1.2’’
)).
Too low a cutting height can lead to:
- Excessive disc and knife wear.
- Crop being contaminated by soil.
- Delay in regrowth.
