Carefully read and follow all safety precautions before
operation. There are obvious and hidden potential
hazards involved in the operation of this implement.
Serious injury or death may occur unless care is
taken to ensure the safety of both the operator and
any other persons in the area. Avoid potential danger
by taking extra time for thought and a more careful
approach to the use of this implement.
Most work related accidents are caused by failure to
observe basic safety rules or precautions. An
accident can often be avoided by recognizing
potentially hazardous situations before an accident
occurs. As you assemble, operate, or maintain the
unit, you must be alert to potential hazards. You
should also have the necessary training, skills, and
tools to perform any assembly or maintenance
procedures.
Improper operation and maintenance of this unit could
result in a dangerous situation that could cause injury
or death. T.G. Schmeiser cannot anticipate every
possible circumstance that might involve a potential
hazard. The warnings in this manual and on the

operation not specifically recommended by us is
used, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you
and for others. You should also ensure that the unit
will not be damaged or be made unsafe by the
methods that you choose.
The information, specifications, and illustrations in this
manual are based on the information that was
available at the time this material was written and are
subject to change without notice.

if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury .
This signal word is limited to the most extreme

It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper
torque on all bolts. Use a torque wrench to assure the
proper amount of torque is being applied to the fastener.
Start all bolts or nuts by hand to prevent cross threading.
Torque figures indicated in the chart are used for non-
greased or non-oiled threads unless otherwise specified.
Therefore, do not grease or oil bolts or cap screws
unless otherwise specified in this manual. When using
locking elements, increase torque values by 5%.
The chart gives correct torque values for various
bolts and cap screws. Tighten all bolts to the torques
specified in the chart unless otherwise noted. Check
tightness of bolts periodically, using the bolt torque chart
as a guide. Always replace hardware with the same
Grade bolt.

Initial Setup Checklist
Efficient and safe operation of the implement requires
that every user read and understand the operational
instructions and all related safety instructions outlined in
this manual.
This checklist is provided for the user/owner. It is
important for both personal safety and to maintain the
mechanical condition of the implement that this checklist
is followed.
Initial Setup Checklist
(prior to using for the first time)
Location Task
Make sure the Implement is
properly attached to the tractor.
Refer to “Attaching to Tractor”
on page 11.
Make sure all hardware is
properly installed and tightened.
Refer to “Maintenance” on page
13.
Check the condition of the
shanks and points for wear.
Implement Break-In
Although there are no operational restrictions on the
Implement when used for the first time, it is
recommended that the following mechanical items be
checked:
1. After 1/2 hour of operation:
a. Check all fasteners and tighten if necessary.
b. Make sure that the ring roller is in good
condition.
Connecting to the Tractor
Make sure the unit is resting on the ground with safety
stand securely installed before attaching the unit to the
tractor.
1. Remove the lynch pins and lift pins.
2. Board the tractor and start the engine. Position the
tractor with the 3-point lift arms positioned at the
same height and aligned with the Culti Plow hitch pin
holes.
Note: Set the 3-point lift control to “Position Control” so
that the lift arms maintain a constant height when
attaching the Culti Plow. See the tractor
Operator’s Manual for correct settings when
attaching 3-point equipment.
3. Turn off the tractor engine and dismount.
4. Insert the hitch pin through the lift arm and lug holes
and install the lynch pin.
5. Walk around to the opposite side and repeat the
procedure for the remaining lift arm and hitch pin.
6. Extend or retract the 3-point top link to align its end
hole with the hole of the Culti Plow top link. Insert the
top link hitch pin and insert the lynch pin into the hitch
pin.
7. Return to the tractor and slowly raise the 3-point lift
arms fully up and down to make sure the Culti Plow
does not make contact with the tractor tire, draw bar,
or any other equipment on the tractor.
NOTE: Move or remove the draw bar if it interferes with
the implement.
8. Remove safety clip and securing pin on rear Safety
Stand, raise Stand to storage position, and reinstall
securing pin and safety clip.

Placing in storage
1. Move the Culti Plow to a storage area with a firm and
level base to prevent it from tipping or sinking into the
ground. For best results, always store the Culti Plow
in a dry, protected location. Leaving this implement
unprotected will shorten the service life.
Removing From Storage
Each season, perform the following inspection and
maintenance before using the unit.
1. Read the operator’s manual to review all safety,
operational, and maintenance procedures.
NOTE: Store the operator’s manual in the document
storage canister located on the main frame.
2. Perform any recommended maintenance that was not
completed when the implement was put into storage.
3. Visually inspect the implement for wear or damage.
4. Check the tire pressure and set to the tire
manufacturer’s recommended specification. Inspect
the tires for wear and/or damage (Optional gauge
wheels).
6. Make sure all the warning decals are in place and
legible. Replace any damaged or missing decals.
7. Hitch the implement to a tractor. Refer to
“Connecting to Tractor” on page 16.
2. Lower safety stand (if equipped), secure it in place
with locking pin, and unhitch the implement from the
tractor. Refer to “Detaching From Tractor” on page
17.
3. Store the implement with the storage lockouts
secured in place. Do not leave the tractor attached to
the implement while in storage.
Storage Preparation
After Culti Plow field work is completed for a season,
perform the following maintenance procedures before
storing the implement.
1. Check all bolted connections. Ensure that the
fasteners are tight, and all retaining pins are secured
in place with appropriate retaining clips.
2. Check the tire pressure and set to the tire
manufacturer’s recommended specification. Inspect
the tires for wear and/or damage. Make sure the
wheel lugs are properly tightened. Refer to “Tire and
Lug Torque Specifications” on page 12 (Optional
gauge wheels).
3. Inspect the frame for structure fractures and inspect
the side wing pivot points for wear or damage.
4. Check all shanks and points for wear and damage. If
any items are excessively worn or damaged, they
must be replaced.

legible. Replace any worn decals as needed.
