7.0 - Optional Equipment
Some Equipment is provided by Horizon Agricultural Machinery Ltd. as an optional extra. Elements
in this section may or may not be fitted to your equipment or have been added retroactively after
the machine left the factory. Information listed below is provided as a reference.
7.1 - Row Cleaners
The DSX can be equipped with row cleaners and an in-cab control box, which regulates the
amount of force applied to the row cleaning system. The row cleaning system requires 120 PSI+
of air supply to run effectively. The limitations for this systems operation are between 0-8Bar of
pressure.
The trash wheels are designed to move residue in front of the disc to reduce the likelihood of hair
pining and ensure quality slot closure.
To increase the aggressiveness of the row cleaners the control
lever should be moved to the right increasing pressure in the
down gauge increasing the force applied to the row cleaners
To reduce the aggressiveness of the row cleaners the lever
should be moved to the left putting more pressure in the lift
gauge removing force from the row cleaners
To lift the row cleaners out of operation the lever should be
turned all the way to the left. This reduces the force applied
and lifts the row cleaners out of operation.
The required pressures used will depend upon the
row cleaners and field conditions, as such there is no
recommended pressures for the systems operation (So long as
they lie between the system limitations) All rows are operated
at the same pressure.
IMPORTANT: It is important that
the trash wheels do not operate
directly on the ground as this will
create a tillage effect resulting
in excessive soil movement and
high component wear rates.
IMPORTANT: When unhooking
the air supply line from the
vehicle, it is recommended that
the lines are plugged to prevent
dirt and debris from entering the
pneumatic system.
