To change the angle of cut and the width of the
mark:
1. Loosen the 1/2 inch bolts (1) holding the disk
assembly.
2. For a wider mark, increase the angle (2) of the
marker disk with respect to the tube (4). For a
narrower mark reduce the angle (3).
3. Tighten the bolts.
The direction of travel (5) tends to drive the disk
angle wider. If the bolts are not tight enough, or
loosen over time, the disk will slip into the wide
configuration.

Bulk Hopper Level Sensors (Option)
If your planter is configured with bulk hoppers there
are factory-installed hopper level sensors inside the
bulk hoppers. Hopper level data will be display on
the IntelliAg ISO6 capable in-cab console.

Rear Auxiliary Hydraulics (Option)
If the planter is equipped with an auxiliary hydraulic drive
system, set the selector valve (1), near the sequence
valve (2), at the marker base on the left wing to
“Marker”.

Liquid Fertilizer Pump (Option)
If your planter is configured with the optional liquid
fertilizer system, initial pump start up instructions are
found in the included piston pump operator manual
and will need to be completed before initial use.
Refer to your John Blue piston pump operator
manual.
