PL5800 Planter Table of Contents Index Operation
The planter frame is raised to allow the wings to
clear the hooks.
2. Wing locks on the tongue and inside the gauge
wheels prevent the planter from unfolding while
in transport. The tongue is raised to allow the
hooks to clear the locks.
3. A cylinder lock channel at each transport wheel
cylinder prevents the frame form lowering during
transport and maintenance. The lock channels
are installed before folding and removed after
unfolding.
For maintenance, two lock channels can be
used on the wing wheels.
For transport information, See “ Transporting ” on
page 30.

Raising and Lowering
Crushing Hazard
Keep all persons away from wings and
openers during lowering and raising.
Openers and wings will cut or crush
anything beneath them, and can result in
serious injury or death.
Falling Hazard
Do not stand on tires when implement is
raised or lowered. Gauge wheels may
have little or no weight on them, and may
turn suddenly and without warning if used
as step, resulting in serious injury.

The planter mainframe raises and lowers independently
of the tongue.

The planter may be fully raised at the any time (and
must be raised for folding).

The planter may be lowered onto transport lock
channels at any time.

The planter may be fully lowered, with lock channels
removed, only when unfolded.
Raising
Crushing Hazard
A raised planter slowly lowers when held up
only by hydraulic circuit, resulting in serious
injury for persons trapped beneath row
units. Use hydraulic circuit to hold the raised
planter only for brief periods, such as field
turns and during channel lock installation.
Use channel locks at all other times.
1. Move the lift/hitch circuit lever to extend the lift
cylinders.
2. Set the circuit to neutral to hold the planter at lift.
3. Install lock channels if raising for transport,
parking, storage, adjustments, or maintenance.
Lowering
If lock channels are installed, the planter may be
lowered at any time.
If lock channels are not installed, lower the planter
only when unfolded, such as field turns.
Planter Damage Risk
Do not lower the planter when turning to
prevent damage to the planter.
1. Move the lift/hitch circuit lever to retract the lift
cylinders until settled on lock channels or fully
lowered to the ground.
2. Set the lift circuit to neutral for field operation.
Rephase Lift System
Over a period of normal use the cylinders may get
out of phase. This will cause some planter sections
to run higher than others. If this happens, rephase
the lift cylinders.
