OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DEPTH
Remove spring locking pin and adjustment pin from the wheel support. Raise or lower the stem
and wheel assembly so the teeth of the wheels are in solid contact with the residue and lightly
touching the soil.
The function of the row cleaner is to sweep aside residue and not move soil. When using pre-
plant incorporated herbicide, the row cleaner depth should be adjusted to minimize soil
disturbance so the cleaner will not reduce the effectiveness of the incorporated herbicide.
ROW CLEANER DO’S AND DON’TS
1. DO NOT move soil, Residue Managers are designed to move crop residue only.
2. DO NOT operate planter at slow speeds, ground speed affects how aggressive the spoke
wheels are; operate at sufficient speed to maintain good residue flow.
3. DO NOT expect 100% of crop residue to be cleared, it is not necessary and would necessitate
engaging the soil. The width of path cleared depends on ground conditions, depth setting
and ground speed.
4. DO expect to see wheels occasionally quit turning, indicates ideal (shallow) setting which is
not moving dirt.
