Adjusting the hoeing depth on the KPP

The hoeing depth must be adjusted such that during hoeing operation, the blades of the hoeing tools are guided 2 bis 3cm below the surface of the arable soil.

On the parallelograms of type KPP, the hoeing depth is adjusted via the guide wheel.

  2. Open the wing screw 2 on the hoeing depth display 5.
  3. Turn the hand crank to the left or right until the correct hoeing depth adjustment is reached.

The guide wheel 4 of the parallelograms will be lifted or lowered.

  1. Tighten the wing screw on the hoeing depth display.
  2. Fold down the safety clip on the hand crank.
  3. Adjust the hoeing depth for all of the other parallelograms in the same way.
  4. Hoe for 10m.
  5. Check the hoeing depth and readjust if necessary.
