To close the meter doors:
1. Use a clean rag to wipe any remaining material
from the seals on the meter doors (1). Clean the
bottom face (2) of the meter box.
2. Rotate the front handle all the way forward to
swing the front meter door up into closed
position.
3. Rotate the rear handle all the way down to swing
the rear meter door up into closed position.

Final Drive Ranges
Entanglement Hazard
Do not operate the machine with meter
guards removed.
Each seed rate chart is based on a specific final drive
range. The ranges are:
 High range - for larger seeds and higher seeding
rates
 Low range - for smaller seeds and lower seeding
rates
The metering shaft is driven by the agitator shaft (1)
through a pair of gears (2 and 3). The positioning of
these gears creates two final drive ranges.
Changing Final Drive Range Gears
1. Remove the pins (4) from both shafts.
2. Remove and position the gears as suggested in
“ Planting Rate Information ” on page 56.
3. Install the pins in the shafts.
Gear Sets for S/N
There are two sets of gears for each meter:
1. A 10DP profile, 54 tooth to 36 tooth, that is
installed at the factory.
2. A 8DP profile, 54 tooth to 17 tooth, that can be
used for higher rates.
When not used, the gears can be stored in the tool
box.
