Getting to know the machine

Seeding machine linkage

Various special connections to the mechanical and hydraulic lifts are
available to attach a seeding machine to the power harrow:

•

Mechanical linkage device

•

Hydrolift

•

Coupling triangle for seeding machines

•

Integrated linkage

Track eradicator

The track eradicators loosen the soil that has been compacted by the
tractor tyres. The track eradicators are attached to two carriers, which
are bolted onto the frame of the power harrow.

→

You can find information on the settings and properties of the track
eradicators in the “Preparations in the field” chapter, page 52.
