Seed row offset
The seeding disc pairs can be offset between a
minimum of .5 inches to a maximum of 6.5 inches.
They are preset at the factory to 4.5 inches.
If the offset is too small, in wet sticky conditions,
soil will be carried around with the discs causing
an uneven seed bed. If offset is too large, the soil
movement may not be enough for adequate
packing. In very dry, sandy soils it may be
beneficial to reduce the offset. In extremely wet,
sticky soils, if soil rolls forward between the discs,
increase the offset. Seed strut assembly
Packing system
Each packer tire on the drill packs the two seeding rows in front of it as well as the fertilizer
furrow if the optional fertilizer attachment is installed.
The packer tires are set to operate at a skewed angle. This has two benefits:
1. Soil loosened by the discs is pushed more reliably into the seed furrows.
2. In wet, sticky conditions, the scuffing action on the tires results in the tires running cleaner
than if they ran straight.
Half of the tires are skewed to the right and half to the left to eliminate side draft on the drill
Packer tire pressure
Dry soil conditions – 10-15 PSI set at factory
Wet soil conditions – Pressure can be set at low as 8 PSI to allow tire to flex to shed mud
Packer tires skewed to the left Packer tire at lower pressure
