Gauge Wheel Mud Scrapers
The mud scraper removes build-up that might interfere
with contact drive wheel rotation. The scraper can also
be used on the wheels without contact drives, to prevent
build-up from interfering with planting depth.
The kit can be mounted with the wheel axle in either hole
of the wheel arm. The mud scraper is not recommended
when a rock guard is also installed on the same wheel.
Each kit includes one scraper and converts one wheel
assembly. Order two kits per planter, or four kits if
protecting all wheels.
For setup of the scrapers, see “Mud Scrapers
(Optional)” on page 20.
Rock Guard
The rock guard reduces the risk that rocky field
conditions will result in wheel damage or interference
with wheel rotation. The kit can be mounted with the
wheel axle in either hole of the wheel arm. The rock
guard is not recommended when a mud scraper is also
installed on the same wheel.
Each kit includes two guards and converts one wheel
assembly. Order four kits per planter, or two kits if
protecting only the contact drive wheels.
