5.2.3 Hydraulic Coulter Positioning
The hydraulic coulters run using a constant oil supply from the tractor. The
pressure in the system is regulated using a pressure relief valve located at the front
of the drill near the storage locker. The pressure gauge fitted to the valve displays
the working pressure. About 10 L/min (or approx. 20%) of oil will be required to
allow the coulters to respond to changing ground conditions. If coulters don’t
respond fast enough increase the oil flow, but care must be taken not to over-
supply to a point where the fans oil supply is compromised.
The default working pressure is 30bar for DTS machines & 50bar
for DD machines. This pressure will need to be adjusted
according to local conditions. For example, it will need to be
increased slightly (+/-5bar) as the leg is set to work deeper. Soil
types, stone concentrations and desired firming will all influence
the pressure setting. The pressure should not be set so high that
the transport wheels are lifted off the ground.
Chassis wheels lifted off the ground.
Wheels on the ground but not penetrating.
