6. The gauge wheels should be adjusted equally to evenly distribute the load across the front of
the cultivator and help to maintain fore and aft levelness. The gauge wheels can be adjusted
up or down as required by means of the ratchet turnbuckle. Use a tape measure to set each
wheel the same.
5. In order change the working depth of the tines, simply adjust the mechanical stroke control on
the master cylinder in or out to "shallow up" or deepen the cultivator from the original depth
setting. It should not be necessary to readjust the wheel tower sliders, however you will need
to reset the gauge wheels. An added 1" - 25mm cylinder spacer is provided for very shallow
adjustment. It is important to note that the mechanical depth stop will not compensate for a poor
job of levelling the machine if the initial mechanical adjustments have not been set properly.
Adjust the gauge wheel to keep the front corner
of wing from diving or digging in too deep.
Gauge wheels are not to be used to set the
working depth and carry the load of the wings.
They should only have light contact with the
ground to help maintain depth accuracy and
keep the corners of the wings from dipping
down in tough field conditions.
Insert handle and flip lever up or down to
make adjustments.
Adjust turnbuckle in or out to to raise or lower the
gauge wheels as required. Set both wheels the
same by measuring the length of the turnbuckle
from pin to pin.
