Abstract
An agricultural tillage implement is provided which includes an electronic sensor assembly supported by a harrow frame and in communication with a hydraulic system. The electronic sensor assembly includes a pivoting arm movable in conjunction with the movement of a first set of smoothing tools and is configured to generate an electrical signal corresponding to the angle of the first set of smoothing tools. The electrical signal is transmitted to a controller and/or an operator in the tractor cab for continuously monitoring the angle of the smoothing tools. The electrical signal is used to allow for the continuous adjustment of the smoothing tools during a tilling session.
