Gauge Wheel Adjustment
Refer to Figure 8
1. The jacks should only be used to help raise and lower
the guage wheels. The cross pin still needs to be used
in order to avoid overloading the jack.
2. Adjust the gauge wheel as shown on the decal on the
front of the frame
Coulter Adjustment
Refer to Figure 9
Coulter Height
1.
Determine the desired depth of the shank and set the
gauge wheel in the appropriate hole.
2. Subtract 8” from the shank depth. Take this distance
and measure from the top of the frame to the top of the
coulter shank. This will allow the coulter to run approxi-
mately hub deep. If trying to deep rip less than 8”, posi-
tion the top of the coulter shank flush with the top of the
tube.
Coulter Alignment
Refer to Figure 9
1.
Loosen the bottom set screw (1), jam nut (2) and swivel
limiter set screw (3). Lower the ripper in the ground and
drive forward a few feet.
2. Leave the ripper in the ground and tighten the bottom
set screw (1) and jam nut (2). Position the swivel limiter
in the center of the slot and tighten the set screw (3).
3. Check alignment of the coulter and shank. Move either
the coulter or shank so the shank is in the center of the
grove made by the coulter.
Note: Note: If you want the coulter to swivel, loosen the bot-
tom set screw (1) and jam nut (2). Retighten jam nut to
prevent from loosing set screw.
