A
The device should be set via the position of the roller, the lifting height of the hitch and the length of the top link so, that the frame is
aligned parallel to the ground surface in the longitudinal and transverse axes. When correctly adjusted, the front and rear tine rows
have the same working depth. The setting of the bank angle is adjusted via the spindles on the lifting linkage of the towing vehicle. The
correct setting is achieved when the left and right tines work at the same depth and the cultivator frame is thus aligned horizontally
to the ground surface.
Basic setting
In case of towing vehicles with double-acting rear hitch, the hitch control must be set to the single-acting operating mode;
failure to observe this could result in damage to various device components.

SPECIAL CONDITIONS
DETAIL C
Bolt A regulates the maximum working depth of the tines
Bolt B The additional weight on the tine frame allows the device to move better into the ground in dry and
hard conditions.
Place the bolt A in the hole for the desired working depth of
the tines and let the device move into the ground. Check
whether the tines work at the same depth in the front and
rear area. If there are any deviations, adjust the depth in
the front area by changing the lifting height of the hitch
and the length of the top link.
In order to ensure the best possible traction at all times, please
make sure that the imaginary extended line of the top link pulling direction intersects the tractor´s front axle of the (see graphic).
If necessary, adjust the position of the top link on the tractor, usually it can be set at different heights. If you do not have this option on the tractor,
you can use the hole group on the linkage-tower of the device.
For devices with chassis no toplink is used. In the rear area, the wor
-
king depth is adjusted via the bolt A of the rear roller (see chapter
Basic setting, detail C). The working depth in the front area is regu
-
lated by the lifting height of the hitch. Make sure that the cylinders
of the device‘s own hitch system are fully retracted in the working
position and that the working depth is only regulated via the trac-
tors hitch. For devices with a chassis, we recommend the additional
equipment „support wheels in front“ to stabilize the working depth
in the front area. When you have finished adjusting the depth, you
should no longer change the height of the tractor´s hitch and lift the
device only by using its own hitch system.
At devices of the R6 - BIO version there is no rear roller used in or-
der to prevent reconsolidation of the previously worked surface.
In order to enable exact depth control without a roller, reinforced
depth control wheels are installed on the front frame segment. The
working depth of the tines in the front area is limited by the depth
control wheels. The horizontal inclination of the device and thus
the working depth in the rear area is adjusted over the length of
the top link. If you shorten the top link, the working depth in the rear
area is reduced. If you lengthen the top link, the working depth in
the rear area is increased.
Deep support wheels serve to regulate the depth
control more precisely. The wheels can be useful,
especially on uneven headlands and changing soil
conditions. The depth can be adjusted by a hole
group on the support wheel holder and a hole
group on the holding bracket, the desired depth
can be fixed by using the locking bolt. The ide
-
al tire pressure for the 20.5 x 8.00 - 10 tire is 2.2
bar (32 PSI), maximum pressure: 2.5 bar (36 PSI).
When operating with front wheels, we recom
-
mend that the top link of the tractor is hung in the
elongated hole of the device side´s linkage tower.
Front roller and vibroboard serve as pure working tools and must
not be used for depth control. If equipped, carry out the depth
adjustment of the device with a raised and deactivated front roller
or vibroboard (see basic setting). As soon as the desired working
depth of the tines is reached and the device is aligned horizon
-
tally, you can start adjusting the front roller or the vibroboard (see
chapter front roller / vibroboard).
