OPERATION
I
MPORTANT: Please check the amount of travel that the Residue Manager has before going to the field.
I
MPORTANT: Check for clearance with the residue manager wheels. If the residue manager wheels can
make contact with the frame, tires, or hitch the Titan
™ Residue Manager could be damaged.
Level applicator as shown below.
Once the knives are at the desired depth, the machine must be leveled. A low front end will cause the front
knives to be in the ground deeper than the rear knives. Wi
th the knives in the soil, measure distance “A”
and “B” from level ground to the bottom of the frame – THIS DISTANCE MUST BE THE SAME. Once the
distance is obtained, step back approximately 50 feet and view the machine. The applicator should appear
level to the ground. If not, make certain the ground is level. The applicator can be leveled by changing the
position of the hitch clevis.
Set the coulter depth. The coulters are adjusted independent of the A. A. knives. Loosen the set screws on
the mounting bracket and slide the coulter shaft up or down to the desired height.
Do not run the coulters any deeper than what is needed to cut the residue. Running the coulters deeper
than necessary increases coulter wear. Coulters set too deep will decrease berm height by prefacturing the
soil in front of the knife.
