4.7. Levelling 

The plough is longitudinally levelled by means of the upper connector. The plough frame 

should always be parallel to the ground. The upper connector bolt should be in the middle 

of the longitudinal hole.   

 

 

 

 

 

 The plough is transversely adjusted using the bolts with 

handles. There is separate adjustment for the left and 

right  sides.  Looking  at  the  plough  from  behind,  the 

plough’s  beams  should  be  positioned  perpendicular  to 

the ground. With any change in the depth of the furrow, 

a transverse levelling adjustment must be made 

4.8. Adjusting the furrow depth.

 

 

 

 

 

 When attaching the upper connector to the longitudinal 

holes, it is necessary to set the furrow depth by means of 

the tractor’s hydraulic (actuator/positional) regulation.

 

 

 

 

 

 Setting the furrow depth on the gauge wheel is carried 

out using a screw crank. The setting is the same for left 

and right-hand side. Bumpers (screws with a counter nut) 

allow the angle of the gauge wheel arm to be changed 

relative  to  the  ground.  This  allows  you  to  change  the 

distribution of forces acting on the gauge wheel moving 

over difficult terrain. Changing the angle of the gauge 

wheel arm also results in the change to the depth of the 

furrow.
