General Operation and In-Field
Adjustments
Prior to Operating the Turbo Max
11. Raise the machine fully so the lift cylinders no
longer rest on the transport lock channels , Refer to
Figure 16
. Remove transport lock channels and store
on the bars above.
Hitch Turnbuckle
 If possible have someone observe the machine
during the initial operation for levelness - both front to
rear and center to wings. Adjust each as needed.
Refer to Figure 17
12. For front to rear, either extend or shorten the front
turnbuckle on the leveling system by loosening
jam nut with turnbuckle wrench (stored on rear
pegs of hitch). Adjust turnbuckle until level front to
back. Re-tighten jam nut after machine is level.
Never run the machine lower (deeper) in the rear
than in the front.
13. The Turbo Max may be operated with the gangs
running from 0-6 degrees. Changing this angle does
affect the operation of the unit in a couple of ways.
As indicated above, if the blades are operated at an
angle, down pressure is generally unnecessary.
Also, operating speeds will need to be less when
operating with the blades angled 3-6 degrees.
Operating speeds should be from 6-8 mph when
operating gangs in the angled position and from 8-10
mph when operating in the straight position.
14. In a first time operation, it is generally best to operate
the unit at a slight angle to the rows. If the unit is
used as a secondary pass it is recommended to
operate the unit at a slight angle to the previous
tillage pass. This will improve trash flow and
increase the leveling capability.
