Note: Be careful not to overload the coulter wheel spring, which may cause penetration of the
implement to be too shallow and cause the tractor to slip.
7. ADJUSTING THE VERTICAL POSITION OF THE DISC DURING WORK: The purpose of this
adjustment is to make sure that the disc penetrates the ground. The vertical angle of each
disc can be adjusted by means of a series of holes or a rack
(Fig. 7) Ref. A . The vertical angle
should be at its maximum if the plough has to work in very hard ground which is difficult to
penetrate and it at its minimum if working in soft ground.
(Fig. 5)
8. ADJUSTING THE CUTTING ANGLE OF THE DISC: The purpose of this adjustment is to make
sure that the discs penetrate the ground. Perform this operation by changing angle “α” (Fig.
6), which should be small for very hard ground and big for soft ground.
9. ADJUSTING THE DISC SCRAPERS: The purpose of this adjustment is to bring the scrapers (Fig.
4) Ref. E closer to the disc and compensate for the play which appears between them due to
wear and tear. Make this adjustment by moving the scraper closer to the disc first loosening
the scrapper bolt (
Fig. 4) Ref. D and tightening it again once the adjustment has been made.
