cups can be adjusted by loosening their mounting
bolts, moving the cups, and then re-tightening.
• With Seed Cups completely closed, Indicator edge

• Use Seed Chart located inside Seedbox Cover as a
guide, increase or decrease the Seed Rate by using
the wrenches provided and loosening the Inner

Adjusting Nut to the desired number setting on
Indicator. Re-tighten the Inner Nut.
Figure 2-8: Front Seedbox Cups
To prevent damage to seed meters, do not apply
excessive force to adjusting nuts. This is
especially important when closing meters as
seed in flutes can be pinched between seed cup
cutoff and washer.
Do not close meters more than 1/8" when there is
seed in the meters without rotating the seed shaft
to prevent damage to the rotating washers and
retainer rings in the seed meters.
Do not attempt to open meters more than 1".
(feed rolls could become disengaged from the
seed cup washer.)
