3.
I. Remove wing transport pins from wings and place into holder holes.
II. Slightly raise the transport cylinders (#4) to remove pressure from wings
from transport rest. DO NOT fully extend cylinders at this point.
III. Extend wing cylinders (#3) to unfold wings. When last wheel touches
ground place wing cylinders in oat.
IV. With wings fully opened and wing cylinders in oat, extend transport
cylinders (#4) to lower machine fully to the ground. When machine is
completely on the ground place transport cylinders into oat position.

Field Operation
4.
I. After placing machine in eld position retract
wheel cylinders (#1) and packer cylinders (#2)
to the cylinder stops.
II. It may be necessary to adjust digging depth,
this is done by extending wheel cylinders (#1)
and packer cylinders (#2) and adding cylinder
stops for shallower, or removing stops for deeper
depth.
III. Be sure transport cylinders and wing cylinders are in FLOAT position before operating the
machine, This ensures machine follows contour of ground. Otherwise damage may occur to
hydraulic cylinders or other components.
IV. For best performance the recommended operating speed is between 9 and 14 MPH and a
depth of 2 1/2”, depending on eld conditions.
V. When making headland turns thats are sharp, the operator may need to raise discs slighting
using the wheel cylinders (#1).
Problem Cause Solution
Machine doesn’t
track straight Machine not level from front to back Add or Remove cylinder stops as needed to level machine
Entire machine plugs
Ground speed too slow Increase speed as specied in operations
Working depth too deep Add cylinder stops as needed
Wings plug Wings not level
Verify same number of cylinders stop on
main frame and wings
Reduce digging depth
Add weights to wings
Machine moves slowly Low hydraulic pressure/ow from
tractor Increase ow/pressure to SCV in tractor
Machine doesn’t move
Hydraulic hoses from equipment not
connected
Verify all hoses are securely connect to
tractor
Hydraulic hoses from equipment not
connected in correct pairs
Refer to color code diagram and connect
hoses of the same color to the same SCV
on tractor
