DANGER! Lower the machine always to the ground before service and always when
you leave the machine unattended.
Pay attention to the installation and attachment of the hydraulic hoses and electric cables. Hoses
and cables must be secured so that they cannot be pinched, stretched or caught in other structures.
The trajectories should be ensured in practice, by running the cultivator carefully to so steep turn as
it can go in work.
5. ADJUSTMENTS
5.1 Basic adjustment
•
Basic adjustment means the height difference between the frames of the tine cultivator and
the disc cultivator. It can be adjusted by means of three holes in the bracket of the tine
cultivator and the direction of the pins.
•
Different options for the basic adjustment are shown in pictures 3 and 4.
•
In seedbed preparation the tine cultivator section is typically set quite high to achieve shallow
and even seedbed.
•
For heavier tillage the tine cultivator section is set lower so that the tines can go deeper and
the disc cultivator smoothens the surface.
•
Tine cultivator’s working depth fine adjustment is made by adjusting the length of the lifting
cylinder on top of the machine.
•
Tine cultivator is set horizontally level with the drawbar cylinder.
•
An adjustable throttle valve (picture 5) has been installed to the hydraulic hose so you can
adjust the cylinder’s movement speed. Try the movement speed carefully and make
necessary adjustments.
•
Lifting cylinders and the drawbar cylinder are connected hydraulically to each other so that
when machine is lifted and lowered the tine cultivator frame stays level. Also disc cultivator’s
discs are lifted up for transport and lowered down to working position at the same time.
hydraulic connections between the tine and disc cultivator are marked with one, two or three
dots to the frame and hydraulic hoses (picture 5).
