Activating or deactivating ridging discs mounted on a rigid mount

  • If the ridging discs should be used during hoeing operation, the ridging discs must be activated and adjusted according to the section Adjusting the ridging discs.

  • If the ridging discs should not be used during hoeing operation, the ridging discs must be deactivated.

  1. To activate the ridging discs on a parallelogram:

    Follow steps 2 to 5.
  2. Lower the implement on the field with the three-point power lift.
  3. Adjust the ridging discs according to the steps 7 to 12 of the section Adjusting the ridging discs, Adjusting the ridging discs. At step 10, however, lower the deactivated ridging discs to the position required for the hoeing pass.
  4. To adjust the ridging discs:

    Steps 13 to 26 in the section Adjusting the ridging discs, Adjusting the ridging discs.
  5. Activate the ridging discs on all of the other parallelograms in the same way.
  6. To deactivate the ridging discs on a parallelogram:

    Follow steps 7 to 9.
  7. Lower the implement on the field with the three-point power lift.
  8. Adjust the ridging discs according to the steps 7 to 12 of the section Adjusting the ridging discs, Adjusting the ridging discs. At step 10, however, move the activated ridging discs all the way up to the passive position.
  9. Deactivate the ridging discs on all of the other parallelograms in the same way.
