Row Implement Adjustments
To get full performance from your planter, you need a
good understanding of row cleaner, coulter, fertilizer,
opener, meter, seed firmer, and press wheel operation.
Frame-Mounted Row Accessories
Frame-Mounted Coulters
Refer to Figure 55 (which depicts a dry fertilizer coulter -
adjustments are identical for liquid fertilizer coulters)
At the shaft
, adjust the coulter depth for a running
depth of 10.2 to 11.4 cm (4 to 4
1 ⁄
2
inches) below
ground level.
Do not adjust the spring tension. It is factory pre-set.
Fertilizer Applicator Adjustments
Note: Make coulter depth adjustments before making
applicator adjustments.
Applicator Release Height
The primary adjustment for release height are the four
pairs of positions (via six holes
) at the rear end of the
applicator arm.
Machine Damage Risk:
Do not use a single mounting bolt. Use both bolts. The
applicator angle would vary with a single bolt, and the
applicator is likely to strike the coulter disk.
