1.Leave standard flails located between the rows.

2.Remove others and install shorter flails to follow ground contour. Be sure to mount the same size flails on opposite sides of the tube. Measure the row spacing and flail position carefully to minimize ground contact. See page 36 and page 37.

2.Align the unit with the working area on or between rows on flat farming.

3.Use stroke control spacers on four cylinders to set cutting height.

Setting Caster Wheels

Normally, wheels are set to track in the row centers, between the raised seed beds. Tire position will deter- mine flail height, but depth of furrow is also a factor in setting flail height. In some conditions the furrow between the seed beds is deeper on the ends, where irrigation waters enter the field. As furrows change depth, flail height will change.

To compensate for the depth change, move the caster wheels against the side of the outer seed bed (see Fig- ure 13). The wheels will then tend to climb up the side of the seed bed and prevent the flails from hitting the top of the bed.

Set the flail height after the wheels have been moved against the seed bed.
