Employment
DINCO CLASSIC is a light cultivator, which has been designed to work down stubble
and crop residues. Owing to the large ground clearance and the distance between the
tines great amounts of crop residues can be worked down.
DINCO CLASSIC has been designed to obtain complete cutting by which the growth of
both crop and weeds is stopped. The shape of the tines causes the top soil and crop
residues to be thrown in the air and mixed into a homogeneous mass.
DINCO CLASSIC consists of a harrow with two rows of tines to which an arm with
inclined discs has been mounted to level the tracks after the cultivating tines. At the
very back you will find the rear roller, which is used to control the working depth and
to crush clods and level the surface. The rear roller comes as a cage roller or with 60
cm t-rings.
As extras a 400-mm. crumbler can be fitted behind the compulsory rear roller.
Moreover, a seed drill can be fitted to the DINCO CLASSIC for direct sowing of catch
crops.
Advantages of using DINCO CLASSIC
The advantages of DINCO CLASSIC are:
•Exact adjustment of working depth between 4-20 cm.
•No supporting wheels causing compaction in the field.
•Complete cutting thus making less drives in the field necessary.
•Homogeneous mixing of crop residues.
•Keeps the soil moist.
DINCO CLASSIC is particularly suitable for working in the topsoil where the majority of
plant transformation takes place. For that reason DINCO CLASSIC is an effective tool in
a minimum tillage-strategy as DINCO CLASSIC with only one drive provides a complete
cutting of the field and a homogeneous mixing of crop residues and microorganisms
in the soil. To keep the soil moist and thereby optimise the microclimate for the
organisms, packing completes the working of the soil.

Safety

DINCO CLASSIC is only to be used in ordinary fieldwork. DINCO CLASSIC should not be
used in deforestation or the breaking up of old roads, paving stones or the like. If in
doubt, please contact your DINCO CLASSIC Classic-agent or DALBO.
DINCO CLASSIC is not to be used as a crane, a pile driver, a hydraulic press or the like.
When operating the DINCO CLASSIC you must be seated on the tractor.

Persons are not to stay on the DINCO CLASSIC while driving.
When using DINCO CLASSIC on stony soil some noise may be experienced. However,
the level of noise is far below the danger level for the tractor driver.
Dust formation may arise when driving under very dry conditions. It is therefore
recommended that doors and windows of the tractor are kept closed while driving or
that a dust mask is used.

Connecting and disconnecting
DINCO CLASSIC is constructed according to the DS/ISO 730-1 category II and III. If the
lift construction on the tractor is not designed for this, please contact your DALBO
agent.
Connecting
First mount the lift arm with the lift pins. Then mount the toplink. Adjust the toplink so
that the frame is in a horizontal position.
Please remember to secure the lift arms and the levelling bar connections with split
pins.
Disconnecting
Disconnecting is done in reverse order than connecting.
Handling without three-point hitches
If moving DINCO CLASSIC without the use of three-point hitches, it is recommended to
use straps in the main frame to keep DINCO CLASSIC in balance.

Adjustment
DINCO CLASSIC has been adjusted from the manufacturer. A fine adjustment is,
however, always necessary before putting the machine into use. Several possible
adjustments make your DINCO CLASSIC more versatile thus making the optimal
utilisation of the machine possible.
Adjustment of depth
Cultivation depth is controlled by the rear roller in the form of a cage roller or a t-ring
rear roller.
The working depth of the tines is adjusted with pins in the hole plate (A). The upper
pin (B) determines the working depth while the lower pin (C) is a supporting pin,
which carries the rear roller when the implement is lifted.
When changing working depth it may be necessary to readjust the toplink, as the
frame should always be level during operation.
Fig. 1
Deeper tillage
Deeper tillage can be obtained by lifting the implement from the ground so the lift
arm (D) does not press against the upper pin (B). In that way the pin can be removed
from the hole plate and be placed in a higher hole. The lower pin (C) is similarly moved
up so that the support is as close to the lift arm (D) as possible.
When DINCO CLASSIC has been adjusted to deeper tillage it may be necessary to drive
the tines in the soil for a while (or support the rear roller) in order to add pressure to
the rear roller. After this the lower pin (C) can easily be fitted in to the hole closest to
the lift arm (D).
Level tillage
More level tillage can be obtained by moving the pins down. By this the cultivating
frame and thereby the tines are lifted to a more level tillage. It may be necessary to
drive the cultivating tines in the soil in order to loosen the lower pin (C, fig. 1). After
having placed the lower pin (C) in a lower hole DINCO CLASSIC must be lifted and the
upper pin (B) placed as close to the lift arm (D) as possible.
Depth adjustment of discs

Page 10
The correct adjustment of the discs leaves the field level with no visible traces of the
harrow tines. Fine adjustment of the discs is done with the spindle (A) and not until
actually in the field. Discs must be adjusted to work the topsoil, so that a suitable
quantity of earth is thrown back after the harrow tine.
Fig. 2
The angle of the tine
Adjusting the penetration angle in two different positions (A, B) makes it possible to
have a soil-searching tine all the time.
Fig. 3
On dry and hard soil use the most soil-searching/aggressive adjustment (A, fig. 3). On
light and moist soil use the front hole (B). Due to wear and tractive force the
penetration angle should not be larger than necessary to obtain a satisfactory
outcome.
Safety bolt
Fig. 4
The safety bolt (A) must be a
16x80 4.6, because it must break
if the tine is overloaded.
