Marker Extension Adjustment
At delivery, marker extension is typically still set for ship-
ment (arm fully retracted), and needs to be set. Marker
extension needs to be checked periodically thereafter,
and needs to be checked and adjusted when:
• tool bar height is changed,
• marker disk angle is changed, or;
• marker disk throw direction is changed.
Refer to Figure 87
Measure marker extension in representative field con-
ditions, with openers in ground, after adjusting tool bar
height (page 81) and wing weight transfer (page 85). If
openers are not at planting depth when setting exten-
sion, the pass gap will be too large during planting.
Marker extension
is measured on the ground, from the
centerline of the outside row unit to the disk mark.
For limited down-flex drills, setting marker extension is
straightforward. On these drills the row spacing does not
change at wing gaps. The marker extension is simply
one half the span (distance between end rows) plus a
pass gap of one row space.
For standard drills, with higher down-flex, marker exten-
sion is the same, but row spacing at the wing gap is
21.6cm (8.5in), for all models. This increases the swath
by one or two percent, or put another way, increases the
swath-averaged row spacing of the drill.
The table at right presumes that the pass gap is set to
the nominal row spacing for all models. It shows the
actual swath for both wing types, and effective row spac-
ing for higher down-flex drills. For most accurate seed
monitoring, use the Swath and Avg.Spcg. data at right.
To change marker extension, on a lowered drill:
Refer to Figure 87 and Figure 88
1. Fully extend a marker.
2. Pull forward approximately 2m (7 ft.), to leave a mark
and a furrow.
3. Loosen the jam nuts and set screw bolts secur-
ing the outer marker arm.
4. Slide the outer arm in or out until the disk is at the
desired extension distance.
5. Re-secure the set screws and jam nuts.
6. Fold the marker.
Sharp Object Hazard:
Marker disks may be sharp. Use caution when making adjust-
ments in this area. If removed, always re-install guard above
marker disk.
