Hydraulic Hose Hookup

Color Function

Black Lift (2 Hoses)

Green Fold (2 Hoses)

Red Gang Adjustment (2 Hoses)

Yellow Hydraulic Reel Att. (2 Hoses) (Option)

Hydraulic Hose Hookup:

Great Plains hydraulic hoses have colored coded han-

dle grips to help hook up hoses to the tractor remotes.

Hoses with the same color use the same remote.

Front to Rear Leveling (Turnbuckle Option):

1) Completely unfold the machine while observing the

unit for any hydraulic leaks or loose fittings.

2) Once unfolded, raise the unit to re-phase the lift cir-

cuit. Hold the lift circuit open for 30 seconds to ensure

all air is purged from the hydraulic system.

3) Lower the machine so the front coulter gangs are 1-

2” off of a level surface.

4) Loosen the jam nut (1) and adjust the turnbuckle (2)

(shorten the turnbuckle to lower the front or extended

the turnbuckle to raise the front) until the front coulter

gangs are the same distance off the ground as the

rear coulter gangs.

5) Once level, re-tighten the jam nut (1).

Front to Rear Leveling (Hydraulic Option):

1) Completely unfold the machine while observing the

unit for any hydraulic leaks or loose fittings.

2) Once unfolded, raise the unit to re-phase the lift cir-

cuit. Hold the lift circuit open for 30 seconds to ensure

all air is purged from the hydraulic system.

3) Lower the machine so the front coulter gangs are

1-2” off of a level surface.

4) Using the (yellow) hydraulic hoses, adjust the

hydraulic cylinder so that the front coulter gangs are

the same distance off the ground as the rear coulter

gangs.

Level Bar Spring Adjustment:

1) To adjust the level bar spring assembly to the fac-

tory setting of 26 5/8”, loosen the jam nut (3).

2) Adjust the nut (4) until the 26 5/8” dimension is

reached between the backside of the spring guide

and front side of the level bar spring rod plate.

3) Once 26 5/8” is achieved, re-tighten the jam nut (3).

49373

Wing Adjustment Turnbuckle:

Note: Prior to leveling the wings, ensure that the

machine is level front to rear.

1) Lower the machine until the coulter gangs are 1-2”

off of the ground.

2) Loosen the jam nuts (5), and adjust the wing turn-

buckles (6) (shortening the turnbuckles raise the

wings and extending the turnbuckles lowers the

wings) to match the center frame.

3) Once the machine is leveled side to side, any fur-

ther adjustment in the field should be down with the

hydraulic down pressure.

Gang Angle Adjustment:

Several conditions will dictate the gang angle setting

that will accomplish the desired result:

Example Of Suggested Settings:

1) Fall Operation: Cover residue and aggressively fill

in tracks.

Setting:

4-6 Degree Gang Angle

4-5” Working Depth

6-8 mph

2) Final Pass: Creating a level surface/planter-ready

seedbed.

Setting:

0 Degree Gang Angle

2” Working Depth

7-10 mph

1/4” to 1/8”

Wing Fold Assist Proximity Sensors Adjustment

(If Installed):

Note: Wings must be folded up and the wing safety

lock pins installed when adjusting the proximity sen-

sors to prevent damage to the sensor and bracket.

1) Loosen the nuts (7) (one on the front and one on

the back side of the sensor bracket, adjust the proxim-

ity sensor to 1/8” to 1/4” from the front of the proximity

sensor to the rear of the wing tube).

2) Once adjusted, re-tighten the nuts (7) to secure the

proximity sensor in position.

Hydraulic Down Pressure Adjustment: (1200TM,

1500TM, 1800TM, 2400TM, 3000TM)

Note: This setup procedure is for tractors with closed

center pressure compensated or pressure and flow

compensating hydraulic systems. Open center

hydraulics are NOT SUPPORTED.

1) With the machine unfolded, engage the fold/unfold

hydraulics for continuous flow (unfold position).

2) From the tractor cab, adjust the hydraulic flow so

the needle on the bypass gauge is in the green zone

1000-1500 psi (8). Note: The faster the flow of oil

through the system the greater the potential for oil

heating, premature wear or tractor damage.

3) At the valve, adjust the valve (9) to set the initial

down pressure. This is usually set at 300-400 psi (do

not exceed 800 psi).

During field operation, if the wings are running too

high, increase the pressure setting to help level the

machine. If the center of the machine is running too

high, decrease the pressure setting.

48602

Hydraulic Down Pressure Adjustment: (3500TM)

Note: This setup procedure is for tractors with closed

center pressure compensated or pressure and flow

compensating hydraulic systems. Open center

hydraulics are NOT SUPPORTED.

1) With the machine unfolded, engage the fold/unfold

hydraulics for continuous flow (unfold position).

2) From the tractor cab, adjust the hydraulic flow so

the needle on the bypass gauge is in the green zone

1000-1500 psi (10). Note: The faster the flow of oil

through the system the greater the potential for oil

heating, premature wear or tractor damage.

3) At the valve, adjust the valve (11) to set the initial

down pressure. This is usually set at 300-400 psi (do

not exceed 800 psi).

During field operation, if the wings are running too

high, increase the pressure setting to help level the

machine. If the center of the machine is running too

high, decrease the pressure setting.

48665

Hydraulic Down Pressure Adjustment: (4000TM,

4800TM)

Note: This setup procedure is for tractors with closed

center pressure compensated or pressure and flow

compensating hydraulic systems. Open center

hydraulics are NOT SUPPORTED.

1) Close the rear valve (12) by turning it clockwise

until it is completely closed. Then open the valve one

complete turn.

2) Set the tractor flow rate for the hydraulic fold/unfold

system to SLOW.

3) Engage the unfold hydraulic system (continuous

flow).

4) Adjust the front valves (13)(14) to obtain 1200 psi

each.

5) Adjust the rear valve (12) to 1100 psi. Once

achieved, lock the valve using the locking disc.

6) Adjust the front valves (13)(14) to the desired down

pressure. It is recommended to adjust valve (13)

between 300-800 psi for the inner wings and adjust

valve (14) between 200-500 psi for the outer wings.

During field operation, if the wings are running too

high, increase the pressure setting on valves (13)(14)

to help level the machine. If the center of the machine

is running too high, decrease the pressure setting on

valves (13)(14).

49374

Hydraulic Single Point Depth Stop Adjustment:

The hydraulic dept stop will ensure a consistent depth

every time the implement is lowered.

1) Prior to setting the single point depth stop, ensure

that the machine is completely level front to back and

side to side.

2) Lower the implement to the desired working depth

and pull forward. Once satisfied with the working

depth, adjust the depth stop handle to make contact

with the depth stop valve. Note: If a change of depth is

desired, 1 full turn of the depth stop handle either in or

out will change the depth of the machine approxi-

mately 1/4” up or down.

49375

Gauge Wheel Adjustment:

Note: The gauge wheels should be set in the field

position to be 1/2” to 1 1/2” off the ground.

1) Loosen the set screws (16) on each gauge wheel.

2) Turn the jack handle (17) to adjust the spindle

receiver. Adjusting the jack handle counterclockwise

will run the wheel closer to the ground while turning

the jack handle clockwise will cause the wheel to run

further away from the ground.

3) After adjusting the gauge wheel to the desired posi-

tion, re-tighten the set screws (16).

49376

Rolling Reel Spring Adjustment:

The reel down pressure may be adjusted by removing

the pin (18) and then either pushing the handle (19)

forward to increase the spring pressure or by pulling

the handle backwards to decrease the spring pres-

sure. When the desired amount of spring pressure is

achieved, re-insert the pin. Note: It is recommended

to run little or no down pressure in wet conditions.

49372

Hydraulic Rolling Reel Adjustment: (Option)

Reel down pressure can be adjusted on the move

depending on the desired results.

Using the gauge on the back of the machine:

0 = No pressure/transport position/wet conditions

1-5 = Ideal operating range

6 = Most pressure/extremely hard soil

Note: Running the rolling reel at 6 can raise the rear of

the machine out of the ground and can cause the

machine to be unlevel.
