WARNING
Seed Rate Adjustment - Rear
Agitator Box
Adjusting the Box Slide:
When properly adjusted, the holes in the slide should line
up with the holes in the box, with the control handle set at
“6”. To make an adjustment, loosen the control handle on
the box, move the slide until the holes line up.
When the handle is moved to ‘0’ the holes in the box
should be completely covered. If the holes are not
covered, loosen the three bolts holding the seedmeter
casting and shift it slightly so that the “0” mark is farther
from the control handle. Retighten the bolts. Move the
control handle to “0”. Holes in the box should then be
completely covered.

• To prevent damage to the seed meters, do not
apply excessive force to adjusting nuts.
Failure to do so may result in seed being
pinched between the cut-off and washer
inside the seed cup.
• Do not close the meters more than 1/8” when
there is seed in the meters without rotating
the seed shaft. This prevents damage to the
rotating washers and retainer rings in the
seed meters.
• Do not attempt to open the meters more than
1”. (Feed rolls could become disengaged
from the washer in the seed cup.)
