If the HSL
tracks to the left-hand side
, turn the tilt control adjustment crank
counter-clockwise
raising the rear gang relative to the front gang.
ADJUSTING THE REELS
(single point control) located near the middle of the left-hand wing
̶
Adequate down pressure
Lends stability to the HSL
Improves the desirability of the finish
Reconstitutes the worked dirt
Decreases wind erosion
Increases moisture retention
̶
Excessive rear reel down pressure (rear urethane in draft cushion will balloon significantly)
Can hold the rear disc row out of the ground
Can cause cyclical bouncing
OPERATING SPEED
̶
8 TO 12 MPH
̶
Speed, and working depth are interchangeable
Increasing the speed buries more plant residue
Decreasing the speed will maintain higher amounts of residue on the surface
̶
Speeds less than 8 MPH typically leave a less desirable finish
TURNING ON THE HEADLAND
̶
Landoll recommends lifting the rear of the HSL upward about 10 degrees so that the disc blades
disengage the dirt and the HSL weight is solidly on the tires.
Do not over lift the HSL when driving in the field…sever damage can occur to the HSL if
the body of the HSL is too upright when driving in the field.
̶
Setting up a timer is recommended for both the lift and the subsequent return into the next
field pass. Setting up the timer will allow the operator to focus on the turn.
OPERATING WITH GPS
(recommended)
̶
Because of structural symmetry the HSL works 4” less ground on the left side
̶
Please use the chart below for initial settings or subtract 8” to 10” from the name plate width
