Claims9
A drawbar for an agricultural implement, the drawbar comprising:
- a drawbar support;
- a coupler connected to the drawbar support, wherein the drawbar support is configured such that the coupler is moved by the drawbar support into two different positions relative to the drawbar support;
- wherein the drawbar support includes a pivot arm and a drawbar arm, a first end of the drawbar arm being connected to the pivot arm and a second end of the drawbar arm being connected to the coupler, wherein the drawbar arm is connectable to the pivot arm in two operating positions such that the coupler can be brought by the drawbar support into two different positions relative to the drawbar support;
- wherein the pivot arm is configured for pivotally attachment to a frame of the agricultural implement for pivotal movement about a vertical axis, and wherein the drawbar support includes an adjuster for moving the drawbar support about the vertical axis;
- and
- wherein a first end of the adjuster is connected to the pivot arm, and a second end of the adjuster is configured for attachment to the frame, and wherein the drawbar support is pivotably moveable by the adjuster about the vertical axis, relative to the frame.
