first row of teeth. Always make sure that
the drag is never pulling off the hang
chains. If so, shorten pull chains.

b.) On coil tine drags, start with the top

eyebolt (12) centered. Then level drag
mainframe (4R and 4L) by changing
position of leveling bolt (21). There are
two holes in the arm and four in the
mainframe. One of these will get you
where you need to be to level. To lay the
teeth back, remove the clip pin (42) on
each end and move strap adjustment by
pushing the handle (7) forward. This strap
has 5 holes and will let you lay the teeth
back several degrees. If it is desired to set

one row, usually the first, different than the
rest as far as the angle is concerned, it can
be adjusted individually by loosening the
U-bolt and set- screw on each end of the
drag bar. Down pressure on the drag is
achieved by lengthening the eyebolt (12)
on the top bracket. Depending on the
amount of down pressure, you may need
to relevel the mainframe.

c.) If a basket is added, adjust the amount of

down pressure by either shortening the
eyebolt for less pressure or lengthening
the eyebolt for more pressure.
