Page 6: Safety
Safety This chapter contains general safety instructions for this product. Each Safety chapter of the operating manual contains additional specific safety in- formation. Safety decals For your safety, safety decals are placed on important parts of the plough. Please do not remove them. If they become illegible or begin to peel off, replace them with new decals (see the spare parts cata- logue). - Page 7 Safety Meaning The meaning of the safety decals is explained below. Read the operating manual and follow the instructions. The plough must only be used for the first time once the operating manual has been read and understood. Do not stand between the tractor and the plough Standing between the tractor and plough increases the risk of being crushed.

Page 18: Optional Equipment
Optional equipment This chapter provides an overview of optional equipment for the 150 Optional equipment B/150 S plough. Limitations apply. Please contact your Kverneland dealer for more information. Skimmer Recommended for effective ploughing down of grass and stubble. Two types or skimmer are available: manure skimmers and maize skimmers. - Page 19 Optional equipment Disc coulter Disc coulters are available in sizes of 45, 50 and 55 cm (18, 20 and 22 in.) in diameter, plain or notched. They are mounted on single arms and are easy to adjust to suit all conditions. Share knife An alternative to disc coulters, when a reduction in weight may be nec- essary or when blockage from trash or stones is likely.
- Page 20 Optional equipment Share with reversible An effective share system for ploughing hard and abrasive soil and for point use under generally difficult conditions. Share with flush fit point For ploughing in sticky soil conditions. The point is fixed by means of a single bolt and is therefore easy to replace.
- Page 21 Optional equipment Furrow splitter Designed for mounting to any part of the mouldboard, to cut through firm soil, making subsequent operations easier. The splitter is secured with a screw in the existing hole in the mouldboard. Mouldboard extension Mouldboard extensions can be fitted for better packing of the heaps in firm soil and uphill.
- Page 22 Optional equipment Depth wheel It is highly recommended that a depth wheel is used on all ploughs. A wide range of depth wheels is available for the plough. Steel or rubber depth wheel A robust steel or rubber depth wheel. The depth wheels are available in two different widths and diameters.
