Checking Centre Adjustments - Raven SBGuidance Onland Plough Installation Manual

4.7. Checking centre adjustments

The GPS-antenna on the plough is placed out
of the centre of the machine. Depending on the
used working width value it's needed to adjust
the centre offset of the plough antenna. If
centre offset isn't set correctly the actual plough
width of the plough will not correspond correctly
with the set value for ploughing.
Follow the steps described below:
1. First check the centre of the tractor.
Does the tractor drive back and forth
over the same track? If not adjust the
centre offset of the tractor and/or
calibrate the DynamIQ of the tractor. A
correct centre offset of the tractor
ensures a consistent alignment with the
previous operation pass.
2. Check if the correct working width has
been entered.
3. Start ploughing and make sure the first
plough furrow is straight.
4. Manually put the plough in the desired
ploughing width (=chosen working
width).
5. Start ploughing with tractor steering only.
Adjust the centre offset of the plough
antenna until the deviation is 0.
6. Go and plough several lines with
activated tractor and plough steering.
7. Measure the actual plough width several
times by placing a marker post on the
field.
a. Place the post at ci. 3 meters from
the plough furrow. Make sure the
distance is large enough so it's
possible to pass the post on the
next working pass without hitting
it. Measure the exact distance
between plough furrow and post.
