Adjusting the clod clearers

The clod clearers enable 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 must 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 out the implement.
  2. Secure tractor and implement.
  3. Hold the clod clearer by the handle 1.
  4. Remove the linch pin2.
