Introduction The ATCR, ATCRL, GAICR and GAICR 300 disk harrows were designed to work in any type of soil and they provide an excellent seedbed preparation for annual and perennial crops. The rugged structure has an adequate size and is made of folded steel plates, joined by a good weld penetration and fine finishing, with resistant parts on the force concentration.

ATTENTION Keep the drawbar loose during work and fixed during transportation. During transportation, the hydraulic lower arms must remain adjusted. Relieve the control valve pressure pressure and lower the equipment before removing the hoses. Marchesan Implementos e Máquinas Agrícolas “TATU” S.A. ATCR / ATCRL / GAICR / GAICR 300...
NOTE When assembling, note that the cylinder must be as shown in the figure, being its rod facing the front part of the disk harrow. When using a tractor that has a different drawbar height, redo the adjustments. Marchesan Implementos e Máquinas Agrícolas “TATU” S.A. ATCR / ATCRL / GAICR / GAICR 300...
The harrowed ground is always on the left hand side of the operator (harrow closed side). Try to make a good finish between passes. Avoid the formation of furrows or untilled strips. Marchesan Implementos e Máquinas Agrícolas “TATU” S.A. ATCR / ATCRL / GAICR / GAICR 300...
Normal position (centered): Used on most situations. Position 1: Allows the tractor to get closer to the previous furrow. Position 2: Allows the tractor to get farther from the previous furrow. Marchesan Implementos e Máquinas Agrícolas “TATU” S.A. ATCR / ATCRL / GAICR / GAICR 300...

If it is necessary to totally lower the equipment, do not place locks and neither the pin on the jack, as such procedure may result in damages to the jack itself. NOTE Use TATU original parts only. Marchesan Implementos e Máquinas Agrícolas “TATU” S.A. ATCR / ATCRL / GAICR / GAICR 300...
For the cases where the maximum pressure is not specified on the tires, consult NOTE the tire manufacturer and adopt the pressure indicated by them. Marchesan Implementos e Máquinas Agrícolas “TATU” S.A. ATCR / ATCRL / GAICR / GAICR 300...
R = 2.19 x 6,000 x 0.90 10,000 R = The hourly income using an ATCR with 20 disc blades will be approximately of 1.18 hectares per hour. The harrow hourly income can vary by physical factors such as humidity, slope, NOTE soil hardness, appropriate adjustments and especially the working speed.
Page 67
To know how many hours will be spent to work a certain previously known area, it is necessary to divide the value of the area by the hourly income. Example: An area of 50 hectares to be worked using an ATCR with 20 disc blades. (Hourly income = 1.18 ha).
