OPERATIONS
The leveling bar is designed to improve the soil
leveling capabilities of your MAXIMUS DISK. The
leveling bar spring pressure can be increased,
to improve ground leveling (by tightening the
adjusting screw) or decreased, to improve trash
flow (by loosening the adjusting screw).
ADjUST SPRING PRESSURE
A. Loosen locknut
B.
To INCREASE SPRING PRESSURE:
-- turn adjusting screw in (Fig. 1-14)
To DECREASE SPRING PRESSURE:
-- turn adjusting screw out (Fig. 1-14)
*NOTE: The initial spring pressure adjustment
capscrew should be set at 3/4" minimum
(Fig. 1-14).
C. Retighten locknut to maintain adjustment.
NOTE: The most effective leveling and trash
flow is obtained when the leveling bar is run
at a more horizontal position with the spring
tension decreased.
