OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
4-5
Field Operation
1. Raise the unit to take the weight off of the transport
locks. Remove the transport locks from the lift
cylinders (on both left and right sides). Store the
transport locks on the retainers above the main lift
See Figures 4-3 .
Leveling (Front-to-Rear)
1. The leveling feature on the 2112 Coulter Chisel is
used to keep the machine mostly level when raising
the unit from a working position to a transport
position. The leveling feature is also used to level the
unit from front-to-rear to perform a level operation in
the field.
2. The unit should be level from front to rear in field
position. This will reduce horsepower requirements,
allow a more uniform tillage operation, and reduce
unnecessary point wear.
3. To adjust the leveling feature, loosen jam nuts at
each end of the radius rod using the adjustment
wrenches
See Figure 4-3 . To raise the front of the
Coulter Chisel, lengthen the radius rod assembly. To
lower the front of the Coulter Chisel, shorten the
radius rod assembly. After adjusting, re-tighten jam
nuts at each end. Adjustments should be made in
small increments.
