5.7 Adjusting the wheel scrapers
The cultivator’s support wheels are each equipped with a scraper which cleans the
wheel when operating in muddy conditions. The scrapers are factory-set for normal
operating conditions with a wheel/scraper clearance of 10–20 mm. The setting may
require subsequent adjustment as the scrapers wear or, in some cases, due to the
operating conditions. The setting should nevertheless be kept within the reference
factory values where possible.
