SETTINGS

 

 

Height setting 
 

The coulter tip must be set approx. 20 
mm back from the tip of the disc. 
 
-  It is imperative that the minimum  
   distance is complied with to protect the   
   coulter from shock damage.  
 
This measurement can be finely adjusted 
by placing a wooden block beneath the 
coulter with the machine resting on a flat 
surface. 
 

NOTE: 

When using the seed drill on very 

loose or trashy soil it is recommended 
that you raise the coulter approx. 40 mm 
above the disc to improve its mobility. 

 
 
 
Tilt setting adjustment 
 

The coulter’s cutting edge 

(1) 

must be: 

 
-  Parallel to the disc. 
 
-  As close to the disc as possible without    
   limiting it’s rotation. 
 
If the disc does eventually block, the 
coulters settings must be adjusted. By 
adjusting the tightness of screws 

(A) 

and 

(B), 

one can either increase or reduce 

the distance between the coulter and the 
disc make sure that the coulter’s cutting 
edge always remains parallel to the disc. 
 
-  Use the screws 

(C) 

to lock the coulter.       

Set the coulters with the machine resting on the ground.
