A disc harrow that fails to cut straight can reduce field efficiency, increase fuel consumption, and create uneven soil preparation. If your implement i

Common Causes

1. Uneven Disc Wear
Worn-out or unevenly sized discs can cause imbalance, leading to improper soil penetration and directional drift.

2. Incorrect Gang Angle Adjustment
Improper gang angle settings affect soil resistance. If the angles are not aligned evenly on both sides, the harrow may pull to one direction.

3. Frame Misalignment
A bent or twisted frame can disturb weight distribution, preventing uniform cutting depth.

4. Improper Tractor Hitch Setup
Incorrect three-point hitch leveling is one of the most common reasons. If the implement is not properly centered or leveled, it won’t track straight.

5. Uneven Soil Conditions
Hard patches, stones, or variable soil moisture can also influence cutting consistency.

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results
