3.18 Toolbar down pressure

GUID-D2020422-6B91-4858-96B8-9A2D44137933 [V1]
A hydraulic cylinder (1) applies toolbar down
pressure on each toolbar (2). The cylinders apply a
constant down pressure through the full range of
movement of the toolbar. An active hydraulic circuit
maintains uniform pressure to each hydraulic
cylinder.
Use the terminal to set the toolbar down pressure.
The toolbar down pressure can be adjusted from
1034 kPa to 17237 kPa (150 psi to 2500 psi). Set
the toolbar down pressure high enough for correct
disc penetration and correct soil compaction. The
toolbar down pressure adjustment will change with
field conditions, seed depth, soil type, and ground

Operate the tractor hydraulic remote that the
toolbar down pressure is connected to at full output
or fully open. Operating the hydraulic remote at full
output reduces the back pressure on the toolbar
down pressure return lines.
