Adjustments
the drive while raised using special console modes
as follows:
In User Level 1, the FILL DISK operation runs the
motor for one meter disk revolution.
In User Level 2, the 5 REV TEST operation runs
the motor for five meter disk revolutions.
5000 Series Row Unit
(1)
Lock-up Pin Storage Hole
(twin row spacing
configuration). See “
Row Shut-Off
” on page 46.
(2)
Row Unit Lock-up Hole
(twin row spacing
configuration). With the row unit raised above
level, the lock-up pin is inserted here. See “
Row
Shut-Off
” on page 46.
(3)
Down-pressure Cam
(standard). Row units
are mounted on parallel arms; allowing the row
unit to move up and down while staying
horizontal. Springs set by a cam add an
adjustable force to the row weight. See “
Row
Unit Down Pressure
” on page 36.
(4)
Pressurization Air Inlet
(standard).
Pressure-regulated air enters the meter here and
holds seed in the disk pockets. See “
Fan and
Meter Pressurization
” on page 23.
(5)
Seed Inlet
(standard). Air carrying the bulk
seed is vented at the bottom of the air release
cone. Gravity then carries the seed into the meter
at the seed inlet gate. Remove the hose for
inspection. There are no adjustments.
(6)
Seed Meter
(standard with choice of disks).
See “
Tighten both bolts.
” on page 41.
(7)
Seed Inlet Gate
(standard). This controls the
level of bulk seed at the disk. There are four
operating settings, plus fully closed for shut-off or
storage. See “
Seed Inlet Gate Adjustment
” on
page 34.
(8)
Side Gauge Wheel Depth
(standard). The T-
handle sets the planting depth by controlling the
height of the side gauge wheels relative to the
opener disks. See “
Setting Planting Depth
” on
page 38.
(9)
Press Wheels
(standard with choice of
wheels). The press wheels close the furrow,
pressing the soil over the seed to provide good
seed to soil contact.
(10)
Unit Mount Coulter
(option). Coulters cut
remaining trash and begin opening the seed
furrow. Working depth is set by row depth and a
mounting hold selection. See “
Unit Mounted
Coulters
” on page 41.
(11)
Opener Disks
(standard). Row unit double
disk openers create the seedbed furrow with
adjustments for angle and spacing. See “
Row
Unit Opener Disks
” on page 38.
(12)
Seed Tube with Sensor
(standard).
Requires no adjustment.
(13)
Scrapers
(optional). Inside scrapers require
no adjustment. For side gauge wheel scrapers,
see “
Side Gauge Wheel Scraper (Option)
” on
page 39.
(14)
Seed Firmers
(seed flap, standard, not
shown; Keeton, optional, shown). The seed
firmer minimizes seed bounce and improves soil
contact. See “
Coulter Row Adjustment
” on
page 41.
Row Unit Down Pressure
The ideal amount of down force causes the side
gauge wheels to compress any loose surface soil,
but not press a trench into the subsoil.
To check down force, operate the planter for a short
distance on typical ground (with or without seeding),
and stop. Leave the planter lowered with row units in
the ground.
