Spike Drag

Refer to Figure 14

29. Adjust the drag to leave the desired results while main-

taining the trash flow through the drag.

30. On the spike drag, start with 5 links hanging from the

chain in drag arm bottom slot. (This is the starting point
for worst conditions.) The cleaner the ground, the
shorter the pull chain may be pulled up. On the spike
drag, one of the links in the first row of angles is turned
over. This allows the trash to start flowing through the
drag easier by changing the angle of the first row of
teeth. Always make sure that the drag is never pulling off
the hang chains. If so, shorten pull chains.

Reel

Refer to Figure 15

31. If a basket

is added, adjust the amount of down pres-

sure by either shortening the eyebolt

for less pressure

or lengthening the eyebolt for more pressure.

Be sure reels are installed with twisted bars oriented forward

as

shown. Mounting backward

can damage reel in rocky soil.
