Opener Press Wheel Depth

Refer to Figure 4-12:
The depth of each opener can be adjusted by the posi-
tion of the press wheel, Figure 4-12. After setting the
coulters to the desired depth by using the depth control
on the end wheel cylinder, see page 22, you can now ad-
just your press wheels up or down to achieve the correct
seeding depth.

With the drill level and lowered to planting position, ad-
just the knob and adjustment trunnion located above
each press wheel. This will vary the height of the press
wheel which automatically changes the seeding depth of
the opener. Simply rotate the knob until the seeding
depth is correct.
