Oscillating coulter blades (no-till)
The coulter blades possesses lateral
oscillation movements to follow the curves in
the field.
During working,
do not perform sharp
turns
. This act can cause damage to the row
components.
The vertical oscillation (or flotation) of the
coulter blades is provided by the springs (A),
which allows the necessary articulation to follow
the soil profile and to transpose obstacles.
The height adjustment of the coulter
blades related to the soil should be used to
increase or decrease the cutting depth through
the bolts (B).
Avoid to deepen the coulter blades
unnecessarily.
