OPERATION

Here you will ﬁ nd instructions, warnings, and advice concerning the safe use of the inter-row

equipment.

Above all, get used to performing the aforementioned adjustments in order to carry out discing

successfully. In fact, the more your inter-row equipment is correctly set, the more you will obtain

better and quick results. Before starting to work, we suggest trying to use the equipment to familiarize

yourself with the various adjustments.

Read carefully the listed details before starting to work. We suggest this procedure to use the inter-row

equipment more effectively, to save time, and above all, to remove elements which can damage the

equipment.

Make sure that in the soil to be worked:

there are no plants which have not been laid out in a line with the other plants.

there are no big or jutting stones.

there are no unused stakes stuck in the soil.

there are no tie-rods laid on the ground that can be hooked by the inter-row equipment.

there are no cables, ropes, remains of barbed wore or fences.

there are no obstacles lower than the sensing device rod height.

plants transplanted earlier than two years ago have on the soil no jute or nets to contain clods.

the discing depth does not damage the plant roots.

the axis of the set of discs is always higher than the earth surface.

the sensitivity of the sensing device is adequate to the plants which have to be treated.

(see sections 6.8.1 and 7.3)
