Assembly Instructions

Refer to Figure 1.

1. Lower drill into field position. Place harrow frames (1) be­hind drill.

2. Mount hinge brackets (2) on 4-by-6-inch frame tube (3) on
drill. Position hinge brackets so harrow arms (4) will be close
to the ends of harrow frames. Center hinge brackets be­tween drill openers.

IMPORTANT: Position hinge brackets so drill openers do
not contact harrow arms during drill operation. Exact loca­tion of hinge brackets on frame tube will differ with drill row
spacing.

Attach hinge brackets to frame tube using square u-bolts,
lock washers and nuts as shown.

3. Install harrow arms (4) in hinge brackets so arms pivot on
1/2-inch bolts (5). Secure bolts with nylock nuts.

4. Place harrow frames under channels (6) on harrow arms.
Bolt harrow frames to harrow arms using round u-bolts, lock
washers and nuts. Leave u-bolts loose for harrow adjust­ment.

5. Bolt short support chain (7) to tab on top of harrow arms with
3/8-inch hex bolts, flat washers, lock washers, and hex nuts.
Bolt long support chain (8) to rib under walkboard using 3/8­inch hex bolts, flat washers, lock washers and hex nuts.

6. Connect support chains with chain clevis (9). Adjust chains
so both harrow sections are 152 mm (6 in.) above the
ground.

Harrow Adjustment

Figure 1 shows one harrow setting that has been successful in
no- and minimum-till conditions. Because of different soil mois­ture, trash levels and trash types, you may need to reposition the
tube frame or tines.

Harrow Tines

To adjust frame tube, refer to Figure 2. Loosen four hex nuts (1)
on u-bolts and rotate frame tube (2).

To adjust tines, loosen four 1/2-inch hex nuts (3) on 1/2-inch u­bolts (4) on support bar (5). Rotate tine tubes (6) so tines (7) are
against stop bushings (8) and are at desired angle. Retighten
hex nuts on u-bolts.
