dry place, avoiding the direct contact of the disc blades with the soil.
• The disc blades must be replaced as soon as they are providing a low yield, mainly
because of the reduction in its diameter, loss of cut and other damages that may occur
during the job.

if they are properly tightened. To assure a great performance and avoid wear and rupture,
these bolts must be tightened every so often.
