OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Front Gauge Wheels
1. The Disc is equipped with castering gauge wheels at
the outer front corners of each wing. These gauge
wheels are used to limit depth of the wings, and
prevent gouging and buckling of wing frames.
2. Gauge wheels are not intended to carry the wing, but
prevent excessive depth. Adjust the wheels to carry
some weight, but not enough to hold the wing from
reaching operating depth set with the main lift
hydraulics.
IMPORTANT
Excessive down pressure can cause the implement
to throw a center ridge.
3. To adjust the gauge wheel depth, loosen and adjust
the nuts on each side of the gauge wheel cross
(See
Figure 4-19.) A wrench is provided on the
implement for this adjustment. All other connections
should remain tight. Securely tighten the adjusting
nuts when complete. Both gauge wheel assemblies
should be set the same. Verify adjustment by
measuring the length of the bolt centers of the gauge
wheel adjustment rod.
