4-4 FIELD OPERATION
4-4.1 Remove the transport lock pins from the
cylinder lockouts. Use them to hook the lock-
outs to the lockout anchor chains. Lower the
Soil Saver until the points run at the desired
depth.
4-4.2 Check the front-to-rear leveling of the
frame. Level the machine by adjusting the
hitch radius rod. Set the frame level at its
working depth.
4-4.3 Set the depth by changing the stroke con-
trol blocks on the gauge wheel cylinders. For
stability, it is important that the gauge wheels
always apply slight pressure against the soil.
4-4.4 Always lift the Soil Saver completely out of
the ground before turning or backing. This
prevents shank or disc damage or damage
to their respective mounting brackets.
4-4.5 Reduce speed at field ends, and lift the
Soil Saver completely out of the ground be-
fore turning.
4-4.6 After a few hours of operation, check all
bolts for tightness, especially the shank u-
bolts and pivot bolts. Tighten wheel lug bolts
to 90 ft-lbs of torque. Tighten any loose bolts
to the torques shown in Table 2-1.
4-4.7 Disc Gang Operation. The disc gangs may
be set at an angle of 10, 15, or 20 Degrees.
The angle is adjusted by removing the disc
angle adjust pins and moving the outer end
of the disc gangs to the angle desired. Rein-
stall pins to hold disc at desired angle.
4-4.8 Hydraulic Disc Operation.
a. Lower the machine until the shanks are at
the desired working depth.
IMPORTANT
USE THE DEPTH GAUGE (SEE FIGURE 4-2)
FOR RELATIVE DEPTH OF DISCS. IT DOES
NOT INDICATE ACTUAL DEPTH OF DISCS.
b. Position the discs at desired depth by ex-
tending or retracting the disc adjust hydraulic
cylinder(s).
c. The front discs can be set deeper then the
rear discs by shortening the front discs adjust
radius rods.
CAUTION
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO YOUR MA-
CHINE, DO NOT CHANGE THE REAR
RADIUS ROD TO RAISE THE REAR
DISCS.
4-4.9 Check disc scrapers for proper setting.
(See Section 4-2 to adjust).
CAUTION
TIGHTEN ALL 1-1/2" NUTS TO 1200
FOOT-POUNDS OF TORQUE.
