Figure 7.17
The cultivating angle of the Crossboard shaft can be
continuously adjusted by using the hydraulic ram which
connects to a double-acting hydraulic connection on the
tractor.
To enable more possible settings, you can fit the
CrossBoard axle at three alternative heights. The
CrossBoard axle is assembled at the middle height on
delivery.

Straw harrow
7.5.2.1
Mounting the straw harrow
Figure 7.18
The straw harrow is mounted onto the front implement
mounts as shown in the figure. Connect the sections to
the mounts and secure them using pins and cotter pins.
7.5.2.2
Setting the straw harrow
Figure 7.19
Set the height of the straw harrow so that the tines only
work at the very top of the soil surface; do not allow them
to tear up any soil. Use the cranks (A) to set the height.
The straw harrow must be parallel to the ground. Adjust it
by first loosening the screws (B), which will permit
adjustment of the straw harrow’s longitudinal pitch.
Always use the shackles (C) to lock the cranks. The
centre section cranks may otherwise become damaged if
they come into contact with the drawbar.

CrossCutter
Figure 7.20
CrossCutter is adjusted using a Master/Slave system just
like CrossBoard. The shorter the cylinder is, the more
force with which the implement is pushed into the
ground, and this means the buckling load/tillage is greater.
When the implement is pushed in hard, it can lift the
entire machine at the leading edge, and for this reason it
may be a good idea to pull out the System Disc push rods
slightly on the host machine.
The depth or how hard CrossCutter is pushed in can be
seen on a scale. The scale shows only a reference value,
but the reference value makes it easier to achieve the
same tillage effect across the entire field. In order to
ensure good tillage, at regular intervals, you should get
out and check what the machine has done. Since this is a
