the central piece and the plough wings
3 Technical
description
The wings of the V-plough can be individually adjusted to pivot forwards and backwards: 30° with
model 150, 40° with models 210 and 240, and 35° with models 280 and 320, and see figure 1.
Thanks to this, the plough can be used in a pointed, diagonal, or Y position:
3.1 Attachment
The attachment is articulated for a horizontal tilt of up to 8°.
With normal driving the tilt should be 8°, see fig. 2, pos. A. Always supply details of the type of
mounting system or the suspension of the vehicle onto which the plough is to be installed when
ordering a V-plough.
3.2 Skid
shoes
The V-plough is equipped with two skid shoes which can be set to different heights, see figure 2,
pos. B. During the season’s first ploughing, it is most suitable to set the skid shoes to a lower
position in order to avoid unnecessary wear on the scraper steels. After that the skid shoes should
be set to the same height as the scraper steels.
3.3 Scraper
steels
The scraper steels are reversible. Each mouldboard is spring-loaded thus reducing the risk of
damage when an obstacle is hit.
The plough is delivered with scraper steels with bent-over edges (plough blades for pavements)
that reduce the risk of damage if a kerb is hit. These scraper steels can be reversed by shifting the
left or right mouldboard.
3.4 Hydraulics
The V-plough is powered by a double-acting hydraulic outlet connected to the tractor’s hydraulic
unit or the third or fourth hydraulic function of the loader. The plough is equipped with an
electric/hydraulic diagonal valve which make it possible to operate the wings individual or both
together parallel (in diagonal mode). The electric/hydraulic diagonal valve is operated by a hand
unit in tractor’s cabin.
