Adjusting the clod clearers

The clod clearers allow the seeding unit to run smoothly on soils with coarse surface structures. The clod clearer and the clod clearer tip should only move large clods or stones to the side. The clod clearer tip may not work deeper than the coulter. If the soil is moved completely by the clod clearer or the clod clearer tip, the press roller does not have enough fine soil to close the seed furrow.

  1. Lift the implement.
  2. Secure the tractor and implement.
  3. Hold the clod clearer by the handle 1.
  4. Remove the linch pin 2.
  5. Pull out the positioning pin 3.
  6. Move the clod clearer by the handle to the desired position

  2. Secure the pin with the linch pin.

  3. To check the setting:

    drive for 30m at working speed and then check the work pattern.
