5.4 Adjusting the furrow leveller – right furrow leveller
The right furrow leveller has been factory-set and does not normally need changing.
See Figure 9.
Figure 9. Right furrow leveller.
The working height and travel direction positions can, however, be adjusted if
necessary.
To change the working height, adjust the position of the locking U-bolt on the leveller
shaft. Perform the adjustment when the tillage discs are at the desired working depth.
The leveller tines should be set so that the tine tips are 20–40 mm above the soil
surface in the working position. Re-tighten the hex bolts firmly.
5.5 Setting the disc raising and lowering speed
Adjustment of the working depth and the raising and lowering speeds of the cultivator
discs during operation are carried out using the dual-function hydraulic cylinder. The
cylinder speed is adjusted using the choke on one of the hydraulic hoses. Depending on
the model, the choke may be fitted with a hex screw lock. If so, loosen the hex screw
before carrying out the adjustment and then re-tighten it once the setting is made.
