11.6 Working
depth
The working depth is set using the tractor hydraulics and, if fitted, the plough‘s
depth wheel. For instructions on setting the tractor hydraulics, please refer to the
operating instructions provided by the tractor manufacturer. The tractor hydraulics
should be set to draft control or mixed control.
The depth wheel on the plough should only act as a depth control wheel and
should prevent the plough from working too deep. Therefore the weight of the
plough should be transferred to the tractor as far as possible to avoid excess
wheel slip. Excess wheel slip causes premature tyre wear and increases fuel con-
sumption.
