Seed Rate Adjustment
Note: Use wrenches provided for adjustment.
IMPORTANT:
To prevent damage to seed
meters, do not apply excessive force to adjusting
nuts. This is especially important when closing
meters as seed in flutes can be pinched between
cut -off and washer in seed cup. Do not attempt
to open meters more than 1”. (Feed rolls could
become disengaged from washer in seed cup.)
Seed rate is set by adjusting the micro-meter on
the left side of the machine.
Note: Before you begin, be sure
pointer reads “0” when cups are
complety closed . (See Figure 7.)
Note:
To increase the rate of seeding, loosen the nut
on inside of the bearing and turn the outer
nut to move the seed shaft to the desired
higher number setting, then re-tighten the
inner nut.
To decrease the rate of seeding, loosen the
outer nut and turn the inner nut to move
the seed shaft to the desired lower number
position; then re-tighten the outer nut.
Seed cups discharge
to the rear of the machine.
