The draft control automatically maintains the tractive effort of the t ractor at
a
constant level, (p low s, cultivators) .
It is used
for all carried i mplements which must work in the ground at a
constant depth .
With
carried implements , the tractor ground grip is improved , because a
c
er tain amount of the implement weight is loading onto the rear wheels of the
tractor .
By means of the
control lever enter the implement into the ground to the
desired
depth . An automatic device , incorporated in the lift , maintains this
depth
almost constant even thoug h the ground is undulating or irregular . Slight
variations of work ing depth arise in draft c ontro l only when the i mplement is
working in ground not all of the same texture.
Working in draft control remember that :
-the implement must not have land wheels.
-plows must not have wheels.
