Install Distribution Towers
Only wing towers need to be installed. Center-section
towers are mounted at the factory.
56. Position towers
so there is no interference when
wings are folded or unfolded. Install wing towers at
locations shown in Figure 37 (NTA3010) or
Figure 38 (NTA3510) on page 28.
57. Mount the support bracket:
168-362D NTA35 DIST TOWER MOUNT
on the frame using one:
806-069C U-BOLT 1/2-13 X 4 1/32 X 7 1/4
and two sets:
804-015C WASHER LOCK SPRING 1/2 PLT
803-020C NUT HEX 1/2-13 PLT
Tower Positioning
58. Loosen the two U-bolts
that hold the tower on the
support bracket.
59. Reposition the tower so the bottom of the lower
round plate is about 20

in (52.7cm) above the
frame. Turn the inlet tube toward the center of the
implement.
60. After towers have been installed and before any
seed hoses are installed, slowly fold the implement
while watching to be sure there is no interference. If
a tower interferes with any part of implement, com-
pletely reposition the tower. Repeat these steps until
implement folds without tower interference.
