5 Safety Rules
SAFETY RULES
ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operator’s single careless act.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-
cern, judgement, and proper training of person-
nel involved in the operation, transport, mainte-
nance and storage of equipment.
It has been said “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.”We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
TRAINING
• Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information.
(Replacement manuals are available from sell-
ing dealer.) Failure to follow instructions or
safety rules can result in serious injury or
death.
• If you do not understand any part of this man-
ual and need assistance, see your dealer.
• Operators must be instructed in and be capa-
ble of the safe operation of the equipment, its
attachments, and all controls. Do not allow any-
one to operate this equipment without proper
instructions.
• Never allow children or untrained persons to
operate equipment.
• Train all new personnel and review instruction’s
frequently with existing workers. A person who
has not read and understood all operating and
safety instructions is not qualified to operate the
machine. An untrained operator exposes himself
and bystanders to possible serious injury or
death.
PREPARATION
• Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing to
avoid getting caught in moving parts.Wear sturdy,
rough-soled work shoes and protective equip-
ment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropri-
ate.
• Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.
• Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt
securely fastened. Falling off power unit can
result in death from being run over or crushed.
Keep foldable ROPS system in “locked up”
position at all times.
• A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels
when attachments are in transport position.
Without this weight, tractor could tip over, caus-
ing personal injury or death. The weight may be
attained with a loader, front wheel weights, bal-
last in tires or front tractor weights. Weigh the
tractor and equipment. Do not estimate.
TRANSPORTATION
• Always comply with all state and local laws
governing highway safety and lighting and
marking requirements.
• Never allow riders on power unit or attach-
ment.
• Do not operate or transport on steep slopes.

Pre-Assembly
The DH34 is shipped from the factory unassem-
bled. The numbers referenced below are from the
DH34 parts catalog, Figure 3 on page 14. When
assembly is complete tighten all bolts according to
the torque and bolt chart on page 19.
Remove the bag from the pallet which contains the
u-bolts and hardware. Cut the bands(Photo 1) from
the pressure control assembly (ref. #16,17,18,19)
and the mast and pivot weldment (ref. #6). Attach
(Photo 2) the spring end of the pressure control
assembly (ref. # 16,17,18,19) to the main frame
using the rear pivot pin (ref. #43) which is already
in main frame. Once this is attached, rotate the
mast and pivot weldment (ref. #6) upwards. Using
the front pivot pin (ref. #41), which is already in the
mast and pivot weldment (ref. #6), connect the two.
When finished, cut all bands from the pallet and
remove all remaining components.
Using a hoist(Photo 3), raise frame approximately
28” off the ground. Loosen the gang beam clamps
(ref. #11 & #12) and the gang beam pivot clamps
(ref. #9) on front and rear of unit. *DO NOT
REMOVE* these were pre-assembled on the unit
at the factory. Slide gang beam (ref. #8) through
gang beam clamp (ref. #11 & #12) and gang beam
pivot clamp on front of unit. Repeat the same pro-
cess on the rear gang beam (ref. #8).
To attach gangs, reference the gang assembly
chart on page 10. Find the model purchased and
attach the gangs to the main frame using the
u-bolts (ref. #20) and hardware (ref. #22 & 23) from
the bag removed earlier. Position the gangs under
the frame using the diagram and measurements
given on page 9. Each model has one gang with an
outrigger washer attached (ref. # 37). This gang is
to be placed on the right rear of the unit with the
washer facing out. Once gangs have been posi-
tioned and attached to gang beam (ref. # 8), the
gang beam will then need to be laterally positioned
on the frame. See measurements on page 10.
When this is finished, tighten the gang beam
clamps (ref. #11 & #12) and the gang beam pivot
clamps (ref. #9).
The SMV sign (ref. #10) should be bolted on with
the hardware provided on the back side of the
frame (see Figure 3, page 14)

Trouble Shooting 12
1. Unit not tracking or is fishtailing
2. Unit not tracking: skipping, jumping, and
fishtailing(in untilled, hard soil)
3. Blades plugging with soil or trash.
A. Adjust top link to increase weight on the rear
of the disc
B. Disc assembled incorrectly. Refer to assem-
bly instructions.
A. Insure equal cut or depth on front and rear.
B. Reduce speed.
C. Reduce gang angle.
D. Reduce depth of cut by carrying on 3 point
lift discing shallow the first time over. NOTE:
Some experimentation may be required by trial
and error to arrive at proper solution.
A. Add optional heavy scraper kit(Page 17).
If already equipped, re-adjust them.
B. Soil conditions not suitable for discing due to
excessive moisture.
Gang Adjustment Trouble Shooting
Depth Control
The DH34 leveling system controls the harrow
from full depth penetration all the way up to
transport height. Once it is set for a particular
tractor, only minor adjustments will ever be
required. The springs also allow pressure con-
trolled flexibility when obstructions and/or
uneven terrain are encountered.
Most operating problems are caused by unequal
pressure and penetration of the front and rear
gangs. Adjust the leveling system to obtain
equal penetration by the front and rear gangs
and stabilize the direction and side shift of the
disk.
When making depth adjustments, be careful to
keep hands and feet clear of sliding parts and
possible pinch points.
Adjusting Gang Angles
The gang angles on the DH34 series disk are adjust-
able. The unit should be lifted two to three inches off
the ground with the tractor hydraulic system for an
easier adjustment. Each trial run should be made with
the tractor in the same gear and approximately the
same RPM. Keep in mind that many variables affect
the operation of your disk. These include, but are not
limited to penetration, speed, soil conditions, etc.
To adjust the front and rear gang angles, remove the
gang angle adjusting bar (ref. #1, figure 2) from the
stud (ref. #4, figure 2) on main frame (ref. #6, figure
2). Insert stud (ref. #2, figure 2) on angle adjusting
lever (ref. #3, figure 2) into hole (ref. #5, figure2) on
gang angle adjusting bar (ref. #1, figure 2). This will
allow you to use leverage to increase or decrease
gang angle. Once desired angle is set, apply gang
angle adjusting bar (ref. #1, figure 2) back on main
frame stud (ref. #4, figure 2) and pin off to secure.
Angle adjusting lever (ref. #3, figure 2) should be posi-
tioned to rest on top of frame.
When making gang adjustments, be careful to
keep hands and feet clear of sliding parts and
possible pinch points.

13 Owner Service
• NEVER GO UNDERNEATH EQUIPMENT.
Never place any part of the body underneath
equipment or between moveable parts even
when the engine has been turned off. Hydraulic
system leak down, hydraulic system failures,
mechanical failures, or movement of control
levers can cause equipment to drop or rotate
unexpectedly and cause severe injury or death.
• Service work does not require going under-
neath.
• Read Manual for service instructions or have
service performed by a qualified dealer.
The information in this section is written for oper-
ators who possess basic mechanical skills. If you
need help, your dealer has trained service techni-
cians available. For your protection, read and
follow the safety information in this manual.
• Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
• Before dismounting power unit or performing
any service or maintenance, follow these steps:
disengage power to equipment, lower the 3 point
hitch and all raised components to the ground,
operate valve levers to release any hydraulic
pressure, set parking brake, stop engine, remove
key, and unfasten seat belt.
• Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid entanglement in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and
head.
Gang Assembly for Maintenance
•When performing maintenance or repairs make
sure the equipment is in the lowered position
and both the mainframe and gangs are properly
blocked and secured to prevent rolling. Failure
to do so can cause serious injury or death.
When gang component replacement is required,
carefully observe all safety issues. Place unit on
level ground prior to gang drop. Also make sure
that gangs are blocked to keep them from rolling
in either direction. After unit is lowered to ground
and gangs are secure, loosen nuts on all hex
bolts holding hangers to main frame. Observe
the sequence and location of each gang compo-
nent and refer to the gang diagram on Figure 3
for removal and replacement of the desired com-
ponent. After replacement is completed reinstall
gang parts in proper order as shown on gang
diagram on Figure 3. Make sure that the gang
nut on the gang axle is properly tightened after
replacements are made. Refer to " Bolt Tightening
