Leveling Main Frame, Side-to-Side—Integral

NOTE: Preliminary leveling may be done before going to field, but a final leveling must be performed with machine in field while operating at approximate working depth.

Right-hand and left-hand tractor 3-point hitch lift links must be set at same length. (See your tractor Operator's Manual.)

Machine side-to-side leveling is controlled by hitch lift links.

Side-to-side stability is maintained by stabilizer wheels.

Keep main frame level with ground and all standards at same depth.

  1. View machine from rear to check if main frame is level with ground. If performing final leveling in field, stop tractor after standards have entered ground to set working depth; stand behind machine, and check if main frame is level with ground.

  2. If main frame is not level with ground, raise machine out of ground, then rest on ripper standards. This removes load from hitch lift links, allowing them to turn easily.

  3. Adjust side-to-side level using hitch lift links.

  4. (See ADJUSTING STABILIZER WHEELS if main frame is still not level with ground.)
