Row Unit Operation
Turn seed disc counterclockwise when installing on meter hub while

thumbscrews. Tighten thumbscrews slightly with pliers. DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN.
Misalignment between drive coupler and seed meter input shaft may
cause erratic seed spacing from momentary stoppage of seed disc.
Check alignment and adjust as needed.
Refer to planting rate charts in this manual for recommended seed
drive transmission sprocket combinations.
Replace hopper lids after hoppers are filled
to prevent accumulation of dust or dirt in
seed meter which will cause premature
wear.
NOTICE
NOTE: Clean seed is required to ensure accurate seed metering from brush-type seed meters. Remove seed discs
daily and check seed meter or brushes for buildup of foreign material, such as hulls, stems, etc.
