6. Adjust the springs until depth and closure are
near ideal. If the ideal setting is between two
notch values, use the higher setting. Rows in
wheel tracks may be higher.
7. Engage the Row-Pro system. Set the initial target
weight at 80 pounds.
8. Operate in the field. Inspect the furrow and
closing, and adjust Row-Pro force setting for the
best results.
9. When verifying the final setting, and when
planting, watch for Unable to Control alarms,
which may indicate that the cams are a notch or
more too high or too low.
If the alarm indicates a value too high, reduce
spring pressure. If the alarm indicates a value
too low, increase spring pressure.
The actual target rate can be different
depending on the field conditions, soil type, and
other factors. The best way to gauge where you want
the setting is to operate the system for a short time,
then go behind the planter and check the furrow.

Marker Setup (Option)
Markers are factory or dealer installed, and may not
be precisely adjusted for your planter configuration.
Before the first use, set the following:

Marker speed (See “ Marker Speed ” on page 51),

marker extension (See “ Marker Extension ” on
page 15), and

marker disk angle (See “ Marker Disk Angle ” on
page 51).
B
efore making initial marker adjustments,
you may need to bleed the hydraulics as
described in
“ Bleeding the Hydraulics
” on
page 59
.
Marker Extension
Marker extension is the distance from the mark in the
found to the centerline (or furrow) of the end row unit
(whether the row is in use or not).
To measure for marker width adjustment:
1. Lower the planter in the field and drive forward a
few feet.
2. Measure from the centerline of the outside active
row to the mark in the ground made by the
marker disk.
3. When correctly adjusted, there is a gap of one
row space between passes as measured
between centerlines of outside active rows for
single row planter, or between centerlines of
outside active twin row pairs.
To adjust marker extension:
1. Loosen the nuts (1) on the u-bolts (2).
2. Move the marker disk tube (3) in or out to get the
proper adjustment.
The table below provides suggested initial values for
various standard and altered configurations. When
operating with rows locked up, measure to the
outside row whether in use or not. Extension values
may be different for the left-hand and right-hand
sides, each pass in the opposite direction, and each
pass in the same direction.
