Adjusting the clearing chisel
The clearing chisel moves plant residues to the side and slightly penetrates the soil surface. As a result, the coulter penetrates more easily into heavy soils.
Depending on cultivation conditions, it may be possible to spread seed without soil tillage. The prerequisite is cleared, short-cut crop stubbles on dry soils that are not too heavy or too clayey.
