wheels and vine-cutting discs will be installed but will
need adjustments.
Depth wheels are slid toward the center for shipping.
To adjust, loosen bolts shown above, slide into desired
place and re-tighten bolts. If discs need to be adjusted,
follow the same steps as shown above.
Set discs in line to cut with outside edge of plow
shank; about 2” to 3” deep.
Note: Setting disks too deep will keep machine from
going deep enough.
