The double disc coulters (1) are equipped
with self-adjustable scrapers (2) at the
rear.
The individual scrapers (2) are attached to
the holder (3).
The accessory scrapers (4) are recom-
mended if too much soil accumulates on
the pressure rollers (5). Once the nut (6)
has been undone, the distance of the
scraper (4) from the pressure roller can be
set. The gap should be around 1-2 cm.
Once the setting has been made, the nut
(6) must be tightened up again.
