TOOLBAR FRAME HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Figure A. The toolbar frames are equally 26”-28” off the ground. To ensure that frame heights
are equal, it is important that measurements are taken. The tube frames should be parallel with
the soil surface.
Figure B. The hitch is set too low while the toolbar frames are not equal distance from the soil
surface.
NOTE: The illustrations are intended to show that the settings are critical. Tool frame levelness
and height adjustment are very important settings for correct performance of the coulters.
