4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Safety Rules 8

Wear Protective Clothing
Wear close fitting clothing and safety

equipment appropriate to the job.
Operating equipment safely requires the full

attention of the operator. Do not wear radio or
music headphones while operating machine.
Protect Against Noise
Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause

impairment or loss of hearing.
Wear a suitable hearing protective device

such as earmuffs or earplugs to protect
against objectionable or uncomfortable loud
noises.
Use Safety Lights and Devices
Prevent collisions between other road users,

slow moving tractors with attachments or
towed equipment, and self-propelled
machines on public roads. Frequently check
for traffic from the rear, especially in turns,
and use hand signals or turn signal lights.
Use headlights, flashing warning lights, and

turn signals day and night. Follow local
regulations for equipment lighting and
marking. Keep lighting and marking visible
and in good working order. Replace or repair
lighting and marking that has been damaged
or lost.
Tow loads Safely
Stopping distance increases with speed and

weight of towed loads, and on slopes. Towed
loads with or without brakes that are too
heavy for the tractor or are towed too fast can
cause loss of control. Consider the total
weight of the equipment and its load.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Safety Rules 9

Observe these recommended maximum road

speeds, or local speed limits which may be
lower.
• If towed equipment does not have brakes,

do not travel more than 32 km/h (20 mph) and
do not tow loads more than 1.5 times the
tractor weight.
• If towed equipment has brakes, do not travel

more than 40 km/h (25 mph) and do not tow
loads more than 4.5 times the tractor weight.
Ensure the load does not exceed the

recommended weight ratio. Add ballast to
recommended maximum for tractor, lighten the
load, or get a heavier towing unit. The tractor
must be heavy and powerful enough with
adequate braking power for the towed load.
Use additional caution when towing loads
under adverse surface conditions, when
turning, and on inclines.
Practice Safe Maintenance
Understand service procedure before doing

work. Keep area clean and dry.
Never lubricate, service, or adjust machine

while it is moving. Keep hands, feet, and
clothing from power-driven parts. Disengage
all power and operate controls to relieve
pressure. Lower equipment to the ground.
Stop the engine. Remove the key. Allow
machine to cool.
Securely support any machine elements that

must be raised for service work.
Keep all parts in good condition and properly

installed. Fix damage immediately. Replace
worn or broken parts. Remove any buildup of
grease, oil, or debris.

making adjustments on electrical systems or
welding on machine.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Safety Rules 10

Remove Paint Before Welding or Heating
Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dust.
Hazardous fumes can be generated when paint is

heated by welding, soldering, or using a torch.
Do all work outside or in a well ventilated area.

Dispose of paint and solvent properly.
Remove paint before welding or heating.

• If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the
dust. Wear an approved respirator.
• If you use solvent or paint stripper, remove

stripper with soap and water before welding.
Remove solvent or paint stripper containers and
other flammable material from area. Allow fumes to
disperse at least 15 minutes before welding or
heating.
Avoid Heating Near Pressurized Fluid Lines
Flammable spray can be generated by heating

near pressurized fluid lines, resulting in severe
burns to yourself and bystanders. Do not heat by
welding, soldering or using a torch near
pressurized fluid lines or other flammable
materials. Pressurized lines can be accidentally cut
when heat goes beyond the immediate flame area.
Avoid High-Pressure Fluids
Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the

skin causing serious injury.
Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before

disconnecting hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all
connections before applying pressure.
Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Protect
hands and body from high pressure fluids.
If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately.

Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically
removed within a few hours or gangrene may
result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type of injury
should reference a knowledgeable medical source.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Safety Rules 11

Avoid Harmful Asbestos Dust
Avoid breathing dust that may be generated

when handling components containing asbestos
fibers. Inhaled asbestos fibers may cause lung
cancer.
Components in products that may contain

asbestos fibers are brake pads, brake band and
lining assemblies, clutch plates, and some
gaskets. The asbestos used in these
components is usually found in a resin or sealed
in some way. Normal handling is not hazardous
as long as airborne dust containing asbestos is
not generated.
Avoid creating dust. Never use compressed air

for cleaning. Avoid brushing or grinding material
containing asbestos. When servicing, wear an
approved respirator. A special vacuum cleaner is
recommended to clean asbestos. If not available,
apply a mist of oil or water on the material
containing asbestos.
Keep bystanders away from the area.
Store Attachments Safely
Stored attachments such as dual wheels, cage

wheels, and loaders can fall and cause serious
injury or death.
Securely store attachments and implements to

prevent falling. Keep playing children and
bystanders away from storage area.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Safety Rules 12

Dispose of Waste Properly
Improperly disposing of waste can threaten

the environment and ecology.
Use leakproof containers when draining fluids.

Do not use food or beverage containers that
may mislead someone into drinking from
them.
Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a

drain, or into any water source.
Air conditioning refrigerants escaping into the

air can damage the Earth's atmosphere.
Government regulations may require a
certified air conditioning service center to
recover and recycle used air conditioning
refrigerants.
Inquire on the proper way to recycle or

dispose of waste from your local
environmental or recycling center.

4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Operation 24

Leveling the Disc
Front-to-Rear
Attach disc to tractor. Raise disc to transport

position. If frame is not level turn leveling
screw with the following procedure:
• Loose locking nut .
• Turn leveling screw clock or counter clock
wise as required.
• Tight locking nut.
NOTE: Other adjustments to level disc

front-to-rear are:
Turning the offset tractor drawbar over.
Turning straight drawbar open clevis up or

down.
Adjusting the Hitch
Operating Position
The hitch can be set so the disc trails directly

behind the tractor, or offset in several
positions to the right.
For normal conditions, set hitch parallel to

main frame to trail directly behind tractor. For
better operation of the disc, when connecting
the disc hitch to tractor pull bar, check that
the height of the disc hitch from the ground
level to be close to the 18” to 20”. To get this
height you might need to turn the tractor
drawbar over.
For more penetration in hard ground, move

hitch pull point to the right, giving more cutting
angle to front gangs.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Operation 25

Correcting Side Draft
Causes
Side draft is normally caused by having an

equal angle of cut on both front and rear
gangs. Since the front blades are working in
firmer ground, they force the disc to the left.
This exerts force on the left-hand side of the
tractor drawbar, making steering the tractor
difficult.
Cures
Hitch Correction
1. Remove bolt and safety pin (A).
2. Swing hitch (B) to the right and use

another adjustment hole in plate. Set bolt
and safety pin.
Leveling Screw Correction
Leveling Screw allows for pressure on gang

adjustment by turning counter clockwise.
This increases pressure on rear gangs thus,
reducing side draft.
Tractor Hitch Correction
In some conditions change tractor hitch point

by turning tractor drawbar so offset is up.
This will put pressure on rear gangs and
decrease penetration of front gangs.
The offset disc should be pulled by a tractor
with a swinging drawbar. If the tractor
drawbar rides against drawbar stop, this will
cause side draft and affect tractor steering.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Operation 26

Correcting Uneven Gang Penetration
In certain soil conditions, less penetration on

the left front and/or right rear gangs may
occur. The following adjustments can be
made to equalize disc blade penetration.
1. Move the hitch (B), to the right to reduce

force against the front gang disc blades.
Remove hardware (A) swing hitch and
replace hardware.
2. Reducing front gang angle as explained in

the Angling Gangs section will decrease the
amount of soil thrown by the front gang,
equalizing the amount of soil being moved
by the rear gangs.
3. Letting the transport wheels roll without

gauging disc working depth will stabilize the
front and rear gang penetration.
Adjusting Disc Working Depth
The working depth of the disc depends on

the angle of the gangs and transport wheel
height.
Minimum angle setting (B) is equal to:
Minimum penetration.
A - Maximum angle setting.

B - Minimum angle setting.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Operation 27

Angling Gangs
Proper gang angling is a must to achieve (A)
optimal disc harrow working conditions. Angling (E)
adjustments are determined by the position of (D)

the adjustment angle holes (A) of the main (A)
frame to the front and rear sections. To adjust (C)

(B)
the angle, loosen the bolts (B), (C), (E) and
clamp (D). Lift the disc harrow by opening the
disc harrow hydraulic cylinder. Once the discs
are off the ground, push section and drive the
screw (E) into the desired position, lower
harrow and tight bolts (B), (C), (E) and finally
clamp (D).
Adjusting Transport Wheel Height
Adjust wheels using hydraulic cylinder to find

desired setting for penetration.
Lateral gang Adjustment
After adjustments are made, rear blades (B)

should evenly divide the space between the
front blades (A). If they do not, adjust gangs
laterally as instructed below:
1. Loosen all disc gang supports (3/4” x 6 1/2”

grade 5 bolts) in the rear section and move
them to the left or right until you get the desired
position.
Lift gangs clear of ground with the remote

hydraulic cylinder.
2. Tighten hardware to torque specified in

Service section.
This adjustment can be performed on front and

rear gangs.
CAUTION: Keep feet away from under

disc.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Operation 28

Adjusting Scrapers
For better disc working depth in humid and

trash soil, keep discs clean, so it is
recommended to install the scrapers at a
distance of 1/4" in relation to the discs. The
scrapers arm has a slot for independent
adjustment; the scraper point is also
adjustable.
Filling Furrows
The right rear blade produces a furrow and D D

ridge when disc working depth. A

For good furrow filling, the left end blade of
the front gang should run in the furrow. This
eliminates overlap and uses the full width of
the harrow.

front blade moved
by right rear blade
Adjust hitch to the left, which moves the front
gang to the right and the rear gang to the
left, minimizing side draft. This increases the
cutting angle of the rear gang and throws
soil into the furrow.
4350-2160-00 (Rev. 09/02/15) Operation 29

Detaching From Tractor
Lower disc completely to the ground with

remote cylinder operation lever on hitching
from the tractor and turn engine off.
Raise wheels until hitch clevis is free on
tractor drawbar.
CAUTION: To avoid injury from

escaping hydraulic oil under pressure,
turn engine off and relieve the pressure on
the system by moving remote cylinder
operating levers in both directions before
attaching hoses to breaking couplers.
Remove drawbar pin.
Turn engine on and drive tractor forward and

detaching of disc.
Install tractor drawbar pin.
Lubrication and Maintenance
After each working day, retighten all bolts,

clean and inspect your disc harrow to detect
possible failures.
