800-627-8569 43 Reel Disk from McFarlane Mfg.
Problem Cause Solution
Outside disk gang gouges. Wing frame are not level.
Level the wing frame using the
turnbuckles on the wing wheels to
raise the outside of the disk gang or
add gauge wheels.
Spiral reel plugs in wet soil conditions. Spiral reel is set too deep.
Decrease the depth of the spiral reels
by carrying some of the weight on the
wheels. Use the stop cranks to adjust
the wheel cylinders.
Set baskets deeper than reels.
Increase speed.
Residue buildup on harrow bars.
Front disk gang is not set correctly.
Set the disk gang to a more
aggressive angle in order to size the
residue into smaller pieces.
The harrow angle is not set correctly.
Change the angle of the teeth.
Using the linkage settings that
produce the fl attest angle on the
harrow is recommended. Setting
the harrow to the steepest angle is
usually recommended for spring work
or light residue.
The ground speed is too low. Increase ground speed to 8 to 9 mph.
Rolling basket springs are breaking. Too much spring tension.
Too much spring tension will cause
premature failure, especially when
going through waterways or ditches.
Reset spring tension, as per section
in this manual.
