IN THE LATERAL PART OF THE CHASSIS, THERE
IS AN INDICATOR WITH LEVEL MARKS (5, Fig.
6.3)
VERY IMPORTANT:
PERFORM THE ADJUST-
MENT WITH THE MACHINE COUPLED TO THE
TRACTOR.
6.2 DEPTH CONTROLS
The sowing depth is controlled by means of:
-
DEPTH TINES
see section 6.2.1.
-
DEPTH CONTROL WHEEL
see section 6.2.2.
-
COULTERS
see section 6.2.3.
6.2.1 DEPTH TINES
The main tines determine the sowing depth (A, Fig. 6.4);
both must be adjusted at the same depth. The tines are lo-
cated in the rear part of the machine. They are adjusted by
means of a pawl.
Once the tines are adjusted, the pawls must be kept so that
they do not interfere with the folding and unfolding process
of the foldable machine parts.
FOR FAST SOWING DEPTH ADJUSTMENT, AD-
JUST THE TINES (A, Fig. 6.4) IN
POSITION (0)
,
THEN, THE TOW-BAR STOPS MUST BE ADJUST-
ED (Fig. 6.5).
