Adjusting the working depth of the side guide plates

The side guide plate ensures that the tilled soil is not thrown to the side. The working depth can be adjusted. The soil guiding angle bracket additionally prevents free-flowing soil from escaping.

  1. Loosen the bolts 1.

Work application

Working depth

After the plough

- The side guide plates glide through the soil at a depth of 1 to 2 cm

For mulch seeding with coarse organic residues

+ Install the side guide plates slightly higher at the front to allow crop residues to pass underneath.

NOTE
The adjustment of the working depth must be adapted to the respective operating conditions. The optimum adjustment can only be determined during field operation.

  1. To release the side guide plate from the grid,

    push the side guide plate towards the front.
  2. Move the side guide plate to the desired position.
  3. Push the side guide plate into the grid.
  4. Tighten the bolts.
  5. Make the same setting for the opposite side of the implement.

  6. To check the setting,

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

The soil guiding angle brackets may not work too deep. The soil guiding angle brackets may only level the soil ridge between the side guide plate and the trailing roller.

  1. Loosen the bolts.
  2. Move the soil guiding angle bracket 2 to the desired position.
  3. Tighten the bolts.
  4. Make the same setting for the opposite side of the implement.

  5. To check the setting,

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