Adjustments and operations
Cutting depth
These harrows have an "OFFSET" profile and are well adjusted when the disc blades
from the rear gang pass over the center of the spacing from the disc blades on the front
gang and when their rotation are equivalent, that is, when they have the same number of
rotations in a determined space.
If necessary, use the depth stops (B) to decrease the cutting depth of the
harrow, always maintaining the same depth adjustment on the disc blades.
NOTE
The cutting depth is adjusted by the
following points:
1) Disc gang opening
A greater opening (A) between the
disc gangs is adequated when working
in harder soils, which the disc blades will
have more difficult to penetrate. Reduce
the opening when working on light and
loose soils.
Note that the harrow opening may
change the cutting angle of the front and
rear disc gangs.
