Coulter adjustment
a) Adjusting coulter height:
The tip of the coulter is approximately 20 mm above the disc edge for drilling in high trash volumes, it should
be set 12mm above the disc edge, when being used in conventional seed beds.
- This is the minimum clearance that must imperatively be observed to protect the coulter from impacts
- Adjusting that clearance is easy, the machine being set on a flat and level area with a block under the
coulter
Note: When operated on very soft soil encumbered by trash, it is recommended to raise the coulter to 40
mm above the disc edge to facilitate disc motion.
b) Recline adjustment:
The coulter (1) leading edge should be:
- Parallel to the disc
- As close as possible to the disc but not hampering its rotation
Should the discs jam, coulter adjustment is necessary. Use screws A and B to set the coulter closer to or
further from the disc.
Ensure that the coulter leading edge is parallel to the disc:
-
Use C screws to adjust parallelism by swiveling the coulter around A and B screws
