Soil Preparation

* To build a uniform rm bed with no hollow spots, soil has to be

prepared properly.

* All soils are different. Some (moist, sandy) soils make nicer square

beds than others. You need to know what soil preparation works

best with your soil.

* Machine performs the best if soil is plowed 6” to 8” deep.

* Soil should be harrowed or roto-tilled until free of sod lumps.

* Proper moisture in soil is important to form nice rm beds. For

best results, soil should not be powder dry or in muddy condition.

Getting Started

Before laying plastic, you may want to try out the machine making beds

only; to get the feel of the machine.

Adjust 3-point top link on the tractor to level the machine.

Let the machine down fully and regulate the amount of soil in front of the

machine with the length of the 3 point top link.

It is not necessary to pull more soil than needed to ll the bed. Pulling too

much soil may cause tractor slippage, resulting in side drifting.

To get a higher, rmer bed, grower may want to pre-bed (make beds

without laying plastic) then come back to lay plastic mulch. This will also

help remove shallow spots in the bed. Disk blades can be removed when

making beds only.

4” ............20”

6” ............16”

8” ............12”

Bed Height Adjustment

Bed height is adjusted by lifting and lowering the bed press. Use label ruler

behind pin indicator (top of pin) located on both sides of the machine to

determine bed height(See below).

To adjust bed height, release the lock handles. Raising the bed is done by two

people lifting the deck by hand, or by slowly driving forward with the 3-point

hitch in the down position; the soil will lift the bed press. To lower the bed,

slowly lift 3-Point hitch with the tractor to the desired height and lock the

handles.

If your bed is not rm and has shallow spots in the center, add weight on the

bed press, adjust the top link, and/or install the optional center of bed llers.

Lock Handle Adjustment

Important: When bed height is adjusted, bed width (Page 7)

and trench openers (Page 10) need to be adjusted accordingly.

Bed Height Indicator

Bed height and bed width can be adjusted between the above chart indications.

Bed Width Adjustment

Adjustable Side Plates

The bed press has adjustable side plates (photo at bottom). These

must be adjusted according to bed height by releasing the bolt and

sliding the side plates in or out at the slot. Make sure bolts are tight

to keep them from slipping. For setting, follow chart on machine or

on Page 6. It is important to maintain enough plastic at the edge for

proper coverage.

NOTE; For straight beds, each side must be equally adjusted.

Plastic Tension

Plastic rolls have a tension brake. Just a slight tension is needed.

Brake

Adjustment

Note; Setting brake tension too tight may affect the performance of

the machine and can cause plastic to pull out from under press tires.

Installing Plastic Rolls

To install plastic rolls, place them on top of rollers (A). Pull end of plas-

tic down in between rollers and underneath bottom roller (B). Secure

plastic and drip tape at end of row. Only feed from one roll at a time.

Press Wheel Adjustment

Press wheels need to run at the bottom of the trench and not

on the side to stretch the plastic properly. To adjust, loosen

T-handle and make in or out changes as needed.

Tilt the front of the press wheel on an inward angle to stretch

the plastic.

Use only high quality plastic to avoid straight line tear.

Trench openers are to cut a trench along the sides of the bed. This

will give a ‘cup’ at the edge of the bed to prevent the plastic from

blowing off. If bed height is adjusted, the trench opener has to be

adjusted accordingly.
