Handling and Usage Information
The subsoiler is usually delivered to the customer ready for operation,
however, before starting work, the technical condition of the unit should be checked,
especially the condition of the operating elements and screw connections. During the
inspection, the subsoiler should be secured against tipping over with properly set
support legs (they are standard equipment of the subsoiler). Loose screw connections
must be tightened.
During the operation of the machine, the following may be adjusted:
- operating depth of tines
–
by changing the position of the supporting roller in the
adjustment handles.
- spacing of operating tines of the subsoiler.
If a subsoiler with supporting roller is purchased, its subassemblies must be
assembled during the first preparation of the unit for work. To this end, set the subsoiler
on a flat hardened ground, in a place that allows the roller to maneuver. First of all,
mount the tightened holder of the roller arms in the right place. To transport the roller,
use a lifting device with a lifting capacity of at least 500 kg due to stability during
transport. Set the arms in the subsoiler holders and connect the arms with the roller
clamp with screws (fig. 2).
