Setting the tractor/plough pull line
Set the tractor/plough pull line using the
inner screw (2) so that there is no side pull.
Tractor pulls towards the ploughed land:
Turn the screw (2) to make it shorter.
Tractor pulls towards the unploughed
land:
Turn the screw (2) to make it longer.
Never shorten the inner screw too much; this saves turning en-
ergy, reduces oil heating, increases the lift height, reduces
landside wear and reduces the traction requirement.
The inner screw is too long if the tractor pulls towards the
ploughed land, the lower links are too tight and cannot move
freely, or the lower links or headstock collide with parts of the
tractor.
11.5 Angle
11.5.1 General information
When ploughing, the base blade should be almost vertical to the ground as seen
from the direction of travel. The correct angle is set when the ploughing pattern is
uniform.
If this is not the case, then the angular adjustment must be altered as described
below.
