To avoid having to go between the cultivator and the tractor when hitching, we recommend that the drawbars and push bar of the tractor should be equipped with a quick hitch device. Ensure that the cultivator is correctly and securely attached to the tractor. Use only high-quality ring cotters.
Never reverse with the cultivator lowered – always raise the lifter before reversing! The draw pin built onto the cultivator is designed for towing a Tume fertilizer seed drill equipped with a Tume multi-purpose drawbar. The working load limits for the draw pin are presented below in this manual.
Use of a relatively high driving speed of 10 – 15 km/h typically gives the best results. 4. Hitching the cultivator to the tractor Tume CultiPack requires a normal ISO 730-1 category 2 compliant 3-point hitch and an ISO 5675 compliant dual-function ½ inch hydraulic power take off connection.
Hitching to the tractor is done in the normal manner. Due to the oval shape of the drawbar fastening pin holes, washers must be installed under the ring cotters. The final hitching stages include connecting the hydraulic hoses and raising the support leg.

The disc working depth adjustment is made by rotating the square disc shafts using the hydraulic cylinder. Figure 2. The working depth is adjusted by turning the square disc shafts. The figure shows the transport position. The maximum working depth is set by first limiting the stroke length of the working depth adjustment cylinder.
The limit pin limits the cylinder stroke length, which in turn adjusts the working depth. Once the setting is made, the hydraulic cabin controls cannot exceed this chosen working depth. If necessary, the working depth can, however, be reduced hydraulically via the cab during tilling.
Figure 5. Additional weights can be inserted in the front beam of the cultivator. 5.2 Lateral adjustment of the front disc row Adjusting the working depth of the Tume CultiPack cultivator by rotating the square disc attachment shaft at the same time also changes the angle of contact of the discs with the ground to some extent.
Lateral adjustment scale Adjusting screw Plate edge Figure 6. Lateral adjustment of the front disc row. Do not go beneath the cultivator when carrying out the adjustment while it is raised on the hydraulic lifter! Turn off the tractor engine and engage the hand brake before beginning work in the danger area of the tractor and cultivator.

N.B.! Always raise the cultivator on the lifter before reversing! 7.2 Tilling The CultiPack cultivator can be used solo or, using a Tume multi-purpose drawbar, in combination with a Tume seed drill or fertilizer seed drill to enable both seedbed preparation and sowing in a single pass.
Detailed instructions on hitching and operation are provided in the Tume CultiPlus hybrid cultivator operator’s manual.
