Raise/Lower 3-Point (Wing Lock Option)
With a full 3-point planter (no lift assist), raising and
lowering is accomplished entirely with the tractor hitch.
Raise/Lower 3-Point (Wing Flex Option)
1. Light harness must be plugged into 7-pin light
connector on the tractor
2. Engage the fold circuit into the unfold position.
3. Raise the tractor hitch.
4. If the fold circuit is locked into the unfold position, the
gullwing function will happen automatically when the
tractor hitch is raised.
Raise/Lower 2-Point with Lift Assist
1. To raise planter, engage the tractor 3-point hitch lift
to raise the front of the planter and the lift assist
circuit to raise the rear of the planter. When raising, it
may be beneficial to activate the lift assist circuit
slightly ahead of activating the tractor hitch circuit.
2. To lower the planter, lower both the tractor hitch and
lift assist circuits. When lowering, it may be beneficial
to activate the tractor hitch circuit slightly ahead of
the lift assist circuit.
3. On models with the wing flex option, the light
harness must be plugged into 7-pin light connector
on the tractor. Timing of gullwing functions is
controlled by cam on the lift assist lift arms.
