Refer to Figure 11.
41. Position a Left divider agitator (black, paddle-style)
to the left of the Right divider agitator just posi-
tioned.
42. Slide the divider agitator pair to center it over the
divider . Slide them apart to leave the following
gap:
This is a starting figure. The objectives are that the
divider agitators must not strike the dividers
, and
they must not be in contact with the Series II agita-
tors
. Spin the shaft to check clearance. Tighten
screws and nuts.
43. Repeat steps 26 through 42 for each seeder row.
Note: On rows adjacent to partitions, it may not be possi-
ble to install one or both divider agitators and still
have at least
1 ⁄
8
in clearance from the partition. In
those cases, do not install the agitator(s).
Refer to Figure 12.
Note: The new Warning decal location is on the stiffener
rib on the underside of the Native Grass box lid.
Do not cover any existing decals.
If your kit includes one decal, place it near the lid
opener.
If your kit includes two decals, place one in each
lid on a 2-section drill, or near each ladder on a 2-
ladder drill, or a foot or two from each end of a
wide drill.
44. Clean the location(s) for the Crush warning decal(s).
Peel the release paper backing from the decal, align
and apply it. Smooth it with a clean rag to remove
bubbles.
Closeout
45. Re-mount the drive chain on the agitator sprocket.
46. Engage the idlers. Adjust the idlers to remove all but
1 ⁄
2
in of slack in the longest span, and tighten.
47. Install the access panel door and close snaps.
Changing to Series II agitators does not materially
change seed rates. Changing to Series II seed sprocket
does affect seed rates, and new charts are included in
the instructions for that kit.
