OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

4-11

Disc Gang Angle Settings

1.

Under normal operating conditions, the gang angles
may be set front at 18

o

, rear at 16

o

or front at 14

o

,

rear at 12

o

(See Figure 4-10.) The more aggressive

angles, front at 18

o

, rear at 16

o

, will tend to bury

more residue than the less aggressive settings. With
either combination, the gang depth can also be
adjusted to operator preferences of levelness and
residue coverage.

2.

In certain conditions it is possible to use different
combinations of the gang angles.

3.

For most conditions the rear gang depth should be
the same or shallower than the front gang. To adjust
rear gang depth, extend radius rod to increase depth
or retract radius rod to decrease depth.

IMPORTANT

After adjustments are made to rear gangs, check
both sides to be sure they are the same depth. This
can be done by measuring from the frame down to
the top of the blades of each gang.

If large adjustments are made, fully cycle rear gangs
to insure adequate clearances between frames and
attachments.

4.

The front gangs should not require any adjustment of
the radius rods after they are initially set (See
Figure 3-16.)
