row/line
Why not simply this one, with good combination of the other words with it. Haven't you got a picture that may help you?
There must be s.thing "in a line/row", I suppose

Probably they simply meant "in schiera, in sequenza" but used the other preposition. In my imagination.

I'm always afraid to be too imaginative, but sometimes it helps! :)

Note from asker:
yes I do have a picture and it looks like a bar that holds the tool. So it might very well be something hydraulic. Anyway, I'll get back as I know more |
You were right! It is simply the bar that holds the line of disks although sometimes they used the term schiera to indicate simply the disks themselves (as in profondità schiera). |
thanks for the suggestion, It was right on being the bar that held the row of ploughshares |

hydraulic lift
maybe 'hydraulic lift' for 'martinetto di schiera'? I don't actually know, but I think 'schiera' here probably refers to the decision you make and the mechanism you use to 'schierare' in some way the bits drawn by the tractor, therefore the mechanism by which you switch from cultivator to harrow, or lift +/or fold its arms when you're going along a road. hope that helps ;-)
Note from asker:
actually this is a machine that tows all the units, one behind the other so you plough, till and harrow all in one swoop. But then again you might be right. I'll ask the manufacturer and let you know what the answer is. Thanks Eileen |
