  • Page 18: Attaching And Detaching The Plough

    ATTACHING AND DETACHING THE PLOUGH Attaching to the Tractor Attach the plough which must be parked in half-turned working position as follows: Set tractor hydraulics to 'Position − Control'. Turn headstock so that drawbar (13) is − parallel to the ground. Attach lower links to the drawbar (13) −...
  • Page 19: Detaching From The Tractor

    Detaching from the Tractor The plough must always be parked in middle position and on level and firm ground. Set tractor hydraulics to 'Position − Control'. Turn plough frame into the middle − position (see instruction book for the electronic plough control SVT-R 360). Close lock valves (SP).
  • Page 20: Hitch Frame

    Hitch frame The headstock (7) of the Euro-Titan ploughs can be equipped with a headstock extension (TV) with suited drawbar, when the plough shall be fitted to a tractor with Hitch frame. The headstock extension (TV) with top link pin will be fitted to the headstock (7) as shown in the picture.
  • Page 21: Turning On Headlands

    TURNING ON HEADLANDS When the headland – which should be 20 m to 25 m wide depending on the tractor and the No. of furrows of the plough – is reached, the tractor will be steered to the ploughed land, the front plough frame lifted in front and then the left Auto-button (3) pressed.
  • Page 22: Transport

    TRANSPORT For transport the front plough frame will be lifted in front and then in the operation menu transport of the SVT-R 360 the left hand Auto-button (3) pressed. Now the front plough frame will be lifted in the rear first and then the rear plough frame and locked automatically.
  • Page 23: Of-Conversion

    OF-CONVERSION The OF-conversion will be done with plough fitted to the tractor. From F-operation to O-operation Lift the front and the rear plough frame completely and turn to working position. Set tractor in an angle of 90° to the plough frame and lower plough frame in front and rear.
  • Page 24: Adjustments

    ADJUSTMENTS 10.1 Distance between tractor and furrow wall in O-operation During work the distance between tractor and furrow wall will be adjusted by means of the turnbuckle (19). • Turnbuckle longer = wider distance • Turnbuckle shorter = narrower distance 10.2 Front furrow width in F-operation The front furrow width will be adjusted by means of the turnbuckle (19).
  • Page 25: Pull-Point Adjustment

    10.4 Pull-point adjustment By means of changing the position of bolt (ZP) the vertical pull-point can be adjusted: Fit bolt (ZP) in a higher hole (BZ) => higher pull point. Fit bolt (ZP) in a deeper (BZ) => deeper pull point. After each adjustment the pins must be fitted again and secured.
  • Page 26 When changing the working width per body the turnbuckles (X) and (Y) must be adjusted counter-rotating by the same amount so that first the trailer is aligned parallel to the working direction and second the front furrow width of the rear plough frame corresponds to the other plough bodies.
  • Page 27: Shearbolts

    All Euro-Titan and Euro-Titan X ploughs are fitted with shearbolts (40) as standard. IMPORTANT: Only genuine LEMKEN shearbolts should be used. There is a serious risk of damage if other bolts are used and any warranty will be void. Be very careful of the guillotine effect of a pivoting leg assembly and its support plates.
  • Page 28: Automatic Non-Stop Overload Safety Device

    AUTOMATIC NON-STOP OVERLOAD SAFETY DEVICE The automatic overload safety device protects the plough from damage when an obstacle is encountered. The mechanism breaks back upon impact automatically returns the body to the working position once the obstacle has been passed. Additionally, each leg is fitted with a shearbolt (40) for protection when the body 'hooks' an obstacle.
  • Page 29: Bodies

    BODIES 13.1 Penetration angle The basic adjustment has been carried through in the factory. But after each change of shares or mouldboards the adjustment must be checked. Therefore lift the plough a few centimetres. After that check whether the distance between the point and the plough frame is equal with all bodies.
  • Page 30: Skim Coulters

    SKIM COULTERS 14.1 General instructions The skim coulters (65) should be finally set when the plough is operating at the required depth and speed. The skim point should be set to a depth between 5 and 10 cm (2 - 4 in) and the tip of the point set to run 2 - 3 cm (3/4 - 1 1/4 in) to the landslide of the body.
  • Page 31: Angle Adjustment

    14.3 Angle adjustment Adjust the depth of flat stalk skims (66) by means of the adjuster pins (67). Use clamping screw (69) for depth adjustment with skimmer having a round stalk (68). The angle is not adjustable with those skimmers which have their flat stalk fitted directly to the leg bracket.
  • Page 32: Coulters

    COULTERS 15.1 Sword Coulters Sword coulters (73) are available. They are recommended tough heavy conditions. 15.2 Disc coulters When fitted, disc coulters (93) should be set to a working depth of 7 - 9 cm (2 ¾ - 3 ½ in) and 2 - 3 cm (¾ - 1 ¼ in) to the landside ofthe body. Adjust depth by slackening setscrew (90), move arm (91) as required, after checking that serrations of bracket (92) and arm (91) mesh correctly, securely tighten setscrew (90).
  • Page 33: Wide Furrow Cutters

    WIDE FURROW CUTTERS (in F-operation, only) If the tractor is equipped with wide tyres, it is recommendable to use a wide furrow cutter (BFM). This wide furrow cutter must be fitted to the landslide (84) of the rear body. If the plough is equipped with C-bodies, to the rear body the landslide 340 1450 must be fitted so that the holder (HL) or (HR) of the wide furrow cutter can be fitted.
