First furrow width
In general, the first furrow must agree with the width of the others.
Pay careful attention to the following:
•
If the tractor is fitted with wide tires, the first furrow width should be
reduced to maintain a good connection with the preceding furrows.
•
When working on an incline, the plow’s drifting downhill should be
compensated for.
•
When using a furrow opener on the last body, the first furrow width
should be 13 cm (5 inches) narrower than the width of the other fur
