Checking the Seed Depth of the Machine 

Front to back – The red and blue lines pointing to the front and back openers of the air seeder are 
the ones that need to be checked to determine the levelness of the machine from front to back.  
(See picture on previous pages.) 

If it is determined that one is deeper than the other and you have found that the seed depth is 
incorrect, you will need to raise or lower the area of the machine where the opener is putting the 
seed deeper/shallower.  See previous pages for adjustment procedure  – 

Setting the Seed 

Depth

This is only determined by the operator!

  

Please thoroughly read this manual and 

understand the procedures and machine before proceeding.  Proper machine leveling is 
the responsibility of the customer/dealer. 

Checking for Seed 

The opener will place the seed on a shelf made by the base plate which will be approximately 3-
4 inches from the center of the opener where the fertilizer is being placed, 1.5-2” below the seed.  
Determining the depth of this shelf will help in the setting of the machine. 

By slowly brushing the dirt away from where the opener has gone you will find the seed.  Doing 
this across the width of the machine in the places noted in the diagram on the previous page, will 
give a good idea of what adjustments will need to be made to raise or lower the machine.  (See 
diagram on the follow page.) 

NOTE:   This is especially critical when planting corn and should be done several times during 

the day while planting. 

HINT:    Use the provided Depth Gauge to help in determining seed depth.  It can also be used 

as a digging tool.  Check all seed hoses to insure seed is present in the seed row.  On 
double shoot units check the deep band point trench to insure fertilizer is present and 
no seed is present.  Proper placement of openers and seed/fertilizer is the responsibility 
of the customer/dealer.
