Important recommendations
Set-up instructions
NOTE The cylinder must remain as shown in the figure above, being its rod facing
the disk harrow front part.
When using a tractor with a different drawbar height, redo these adjustments.
The tractor drawbar must remain loose during working and fixed during transportation.
Never remove the hoses before lowering the disk harrow and relieving the control
valve pressure.
The spring of the drawbar assembly should be adjusted leaving 1 cm (one centimeter)
of thread in the rod, above the nut and locknut. This adjustment should be maintained both
in transport and work.
Lower the disk harrow until every disc blade touch the ground. Adjust the nuts on the
rod just to touch the spring guide, without compressing it. So, it is correctly adjusted both
for work and transportation.
The cylinder ports (A) are delivered to the owner facing down in order to protect them.
Before starting to work, verify the conditions of all parts and retighten nuts and bolts,
mainly the ones on the disc gangs, as damage to the axles and other components may
occur if they work loose.
To transport the disk harrow to greater distances, it is necessary to use the transport
lock (A) that is coupled to the hydraulic cylinder rod.
Lubricate all grease fittings appropriately. (See lubrication instructions).
