ADJUSTMENTS
WORKING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
The machine’s working height is determined by the vertical position of the rear roller.
By lifting the roller, the blades get close to the soil, whereas lowering them the cutters get far from
it. After modifying the working height, make sure that the cutters skim the ground: a direct contact
with it would cause their wear.
Picture 1
To adjust the roller height (picture 2):
-
Screw out and remove bolts

which fasten the roller on both sides.
-
Loosen nut
A.
-
Lift or lower the roller, then position it according to the scheme.
-
Insert back and tighten bolts
B
.
-
Tighten nut
A.
-
The skids prevent the machine from sinking too much into the soil while working.
The skids position is fixed.
Picture 2
Work height and side shift adjustments shall be made only
on working ground and only after having stopped the engine,
disengaged the power takeoff and pulled the parking brake.
If necessary, lift the machine from the ground but, in order
to avoid risks for people, place it on rests thus preventing
any injuries that might be caused by its sudden fall.
