Select Bulkhead Locations

Pre-Assemble Bulkhead(s)

Refer to Figure 2
6.

For 705, select one set of the following.
For 1005, select two sets (the double quantity):

Loosely assemble two mount plates

inside the

ends of the mount

, with the weld ears

facing

away from the mount.

Position the assembly anywhere along the top from
edge of the drill’s mainframe tool bar. Make sure the
lower rear edge (

, the weld region) is in continuous

contact with the tool bar, and tighten the nuts to
about half of final torque (the bulkhead is disassem-
bled and re-assembled in later steps).

Determine Mounting Location

The ideal location for the bulkhead(s) depends on drill
configuration, particularly frame-mounted coulters.
Choose locations that provide full access to the zerk
openings for maintenance, and ample clearance both
mount brackets for welding.

Refer to Figure 3
The suggested location for the single 705, and right 1005
bulkhead is toward the right end of the tool bar, near or in
front of the right arm pivot plate

On the 1005, the second bulkhead is located at the left
end of the tool bar, near or in front of the left arm pivot
plate

Using a bulkhead assembly as a guide, mark the
outline of each plate at the weld location.
