Kverneland Auto-line system is a standard device which
guarantees the correct pulling line at any time. When
changing the working width, both front furrow width and
pulling line adjust accordingly. Kverneland Auto-line
system makes these adjustments automatically.

Release characteristics
The diagram shows the differences between three different Auto-reset systems, (Hydraulic system, Coil spring system and the Unique
Kverneland leaf spring system) and how the pressure varies as the body rises (1 cm).
Benefits
The Kverneland leaf spring Auto-reset system is highly recommended. When hitting an obstacle, the pressure on the point, frame, plough
parts, decreases. The stress on the plough is therefore reduced which guarantees a longer life to the plough and ensures a better ploughing.

Manure skimmer
The skimmer is very easy to adjust and can be moved in all directions
to suit field conditions. Special indentations on the skimmer arm provide
correct location and depth setting. Since the fixing bracket and stalk are
fixed to the plough’s leg assembly, the skimmer is easily adjusted up or
down by loosening only one bolt. Once adjusted the bolt is tightened and
locked to ensure a correct and rigid assembly.
The skimmer will be available in two versions: standard manure and maize

Skimmers are recommended for efficient burial of stubble, grass, straw and
