Front Depth Setting - horsch Tiger AS Series Operating Instructions Manual

Front depth setting

The front depth setting via tractor link arms or
drawbar is made in the field.
Drawbar
For this purpose lower the cultivator to working
height while driving, until the working depth is
reached and the cultivator is in level position.
On versions with two-point swivel joint set the
tractor link arms to control hydraulics.
On versions with swinging drawbar fill the pis-
ton rods of the front hydraulic cylinders with
aluminium clips.
If the regulating height cannot be limited, the
regulating hydraulics must be switched off at
the headland, or the lower link arms must be
raised.
The working depth must be checked be-
fore starting work and, when processing
large areas, also in-between.
In the field all Tigers must be driven in
floating position.

Lifting out at the headland
With smaller working depths the Tiger is only
lifted out at the rear. With deeper depth settings
the machine must also be lifted out at the front.
If the Tiger is operated with regulating hydraulics
on the tractor link arm, the lowest regulating
height must be limited just below the normal
working depth, as otherwise the regulating hy-
draulics would lower the front when lifting out.
Heavy soils
In case of heavy soils and when the cultiva-
tor tends to tumble, the working depth may be
adjusted up to 10 cm deeper at the rear than at
the front.
