Raise the machine above the ground, slacken the nuts 4 at each side of the machine
Adjust the tine angle by rotating the lever 6. The angle-value can be read from the decall 5 next to
the handle.
After the correct angle is set, tighten all nuts.
@ An angle of 90 degrees means almost no tine movement in the ground. This is required for
hollow coring tines and advised for thinner solid tines.
@ From 90 to 75 degrees means more "kick action". This is advised for solid tines, depending on
ground conditions, tine size and customer requirements.
@ The length of the draw rod assembly should be 290.50 mm (11.437"), which can be set by the
calibrating shimms, see the spare part page
.

serious damage to the machine may occur. Proceed as follows, see fig.5.:

the 5th and 6th gear, because they are meant for transport.
