Gauge Wheel Scrapers
When planting in moist or sticky soils, these scrapers are
useful in preventing build-up that might otherwise result
in shallow planting.
Order one part per wheel (2 per opener).
The scrapers mount on the bottom rear of the depth
wheel arm, using the existing bolt and lock washer. The
slot in the scraper is long enough to clear the lower
grease zerk, and allow adjustment as wheel and scraper
wear.
For operations, see:
“Adjusting Depth Wheel Scrapers” on page 70.
