7.3 Reworking of the asparagus dam
During the harvest time reworking or postdamming of the asparagus dam can be
necessary for the purpose of weed control and closing of the insertion holes.
For this purpose the dam former Leofant can be equipped with dam-loose.
Besides, the following is to be followed:
With the help of the provided fixing clips both dam-loose in the crossbeams are
screwed on between the lower hitching plates, whereby working height and
distance of the loose are given by the dam form.
The lateral tine carrier is pivotable, so that the dam-loose can be adapted to the
inclination of the dam flanks.
Fundamental the spring tines must be adjusted so that the upper layer of dry sand
trickles down to the dam sole. The following spike drums mix the dry ground when
raising the dams with damp soil and there results a new more stable dam.
8. Maintenance and care
After the first 10 working hours you absolutely have to check the nuts at the
wheels and - if necessary tighten them again.
The tire pressure has to be checked once a month. (p = 2bar).
Once a year you have to do an oil-change.
You have to do the following maintenance and service workings for to reduce the
obsolescence of the dam-former Leofant:
