Wing Alignment
To check and adjust wing alignment:
1. Unfold planter, see “Unfolding the Planter” on page 22, and place a block ahead of each wing gauge wheel. Pull
planter forward against blocks to rock frames back.
Refer to Figure 11
2.
Check for proper alignment by running a string line
across back of planter toward outer ends of wings.
For proper alignment, outside ends of wings (dimen-
sion A) should be 0-to-
1 ⁄
4
in ahead of inside ends
(dimension B).
3. To adjust wing alignment, shorten or lengthen eye
bolts to change the length of the wing pull bar. Adjust
eye bolts
in or out until dimension A is 0 to 1 ⁄
4
in
greater than dimension B.
4. Be sure both wings are adjusted equally or the
planter will tend to pull sideways behind the tractor.
Note: Angle of wings is exaggerated for ease of clarifica-
tion.
