Adjusting the sensing wheels
The sensing wheels keep the machine steady
and maintain the working depth in the ground.
The setting is made only after the depth setting
of the cultivation tools has been completed.
The sensing wheels are guided in the depth via
link motion (1).
The upper pin (2) limits the downward move-
ment; the sensing wheel is thus lifted at the
headland.
The depth guide pin (3) limits the upward move-
ment.

Lift the sensing wheel before starting to work
and pull out the depth guide pin (3).

Set the working depth of the machine.

Lower the sensing wheel to the ground.

The depth guide pin (3) must be as close as
possible at the lower end of the link motion (1).
Insert the pin in the first hole possible from the
bottom. Slightly lift the machine, if necessary.

Check the setting again after travelling a few
meters and correct it, if required.
The wheels of the machine should be supported
by the ground.
Wheels and stop pins must not be relieved. The
wheels must not strike freely toward the top or
bottom.
