Setting working
depth of track mark-
ers
After the adjustment of the length of the track markers it is then neces-
sary to set the working depth.
Track marker hydrauli-
cally foldable
The length of the chain is adjusted for the initial application only. The
chain always has to be tensioned tightly. The tension of the chain de-
pends on the working depth of the track marker in the ground.
The chain can only be adjusted with unfolded track markers.
> Loosen the nut and remove the screw
> Hook the chain according to the working depth
> Secure with a screw and nut
Track marker manual fol-
ding
The length of the rope is adjusted for the initial application only. For
later uses you only have to check the working depth of the track mark-
ers and adjust the rope tension, if required.
> Fold out the track markers
> Loosen the rope grommets at the ropes
> Tension the chains as desired
> Lock the rope grommets
Setting the rake
angle of the track
marker disc
The adjustment of the track marker inclination angle is based on the
soil conditions.
> With regard to the rake angle, adjust the marker disc so that the
tracks of the track markers will subsequently be easily visible. The
track markers must not "dig in".
You may have to correct the length of the track markers. Check the
length after setting the rake angle.
Screw and nut
Rope grommets
Heavy soil
= disc angled,
set inclination angle as desired
Light soil
= disc vertical,
set no inclination angle or only a small one
