CUSTOMER OPERATION
WARNING
Before operating the implement, refer to the tractor’s Owner’s Manual for information
concerning safe methods of operation, hydraulics, hitch adjustment, tire inflation, wheel
adjustments, and tractor weights.
TRACTOR PREPARATION:
Please check the tractor’s brakes and warning lights in order to make sure they are in proper
working order. Please check the tractor hydraulics oil reservoir and add oil if needed.
Use front-end weights as needed to provide effective steering control and front-end stability. See
your tractor Owner’s Manual for recommendations on ballasting procedures.
Front End Weights:
The power requirement for this unit is 200HP (minimum), depending on the depth of
penetration and ground conditions. Select a tractor with sufficient power to operate and lift this
implement.
Horse Power Requirements:
Sway blocks should be used and adjusted to allow movement in operating position. This allows
the pullers to automatically track on the rows. Your implement should be permitted to sway
some while operating and should only be held rigid while transporting. Please refer to your
tractor Owner’s Manual.
Sway Blocks:
Set tractor wheels so they are equally spaced from the center of the tractor. If using the tool to
penetrate in fields for row crops, set tractor wheels so they are centered between the rows.
Please see your tractor Owner’s Manual for correct tire inflation pressure.
Wheel Spacing:
Remove or move the drawbar to one side to prevent driveline damage.
Drawbar Position:
Transporting the implement will add significant weight to your
tractor. Make sure the tractor is properly ballasted! DO NOT
EXCEED THE TRACTOR’S LIFT CAPACITY OR BALLAST
