Adjusting the plough

Adjusting the plough

This chapter describes the plough adjustments required to obtain the
desired ploughing result.

Adjustments can be carried out before and during ploughing.

Recommended working order

We recommend you to use the following working order when adjusting
the plough in the field

> Working width

> First furrow width

> Working depth with depth wheel, depth control and top linkage

> Sideways levelling

> Disc coulter, skimmer and trashboard

If one function is adjusted, this will affect the others. Therefore, this ad

-

justment must be carried out several times.

Adjustments for the Packomat can be found in the Packomat operat

-

ing manual.

Safety

Use protective clothing

Use protective clothing, e.g. gloves, when working with sharp parts of
the plough. Parts that come into contact with the soil can be very
sharp. Failure to handle these carefully may lead to injury.
