For best results follow these operating recommendations:
• Leave standing stalks do not shred the residue in the eld when
harvesting (about knee high)
• Row units on the machine should be operated 7.5” to one side
of last year’s corn row (RTK guidance recommended)
Coulter Blades
• 3”-4” Deep (make sure hub is not running in the ground)
• If blades are new or being used for the rst time in a season,
or if residue is hair pinning, sharpening each blade will assist
in cutting during the rst few acres of operation. After the rst
few acres, blades will self-sharpen
Residue Managers – Heavy pressure setting
Shank depth – Minimum 4” deep from ground level (optimum
depth for fertilizer placement is 6”-8”)
Sealer Blade Position – Offset (left blade in rear holes and right
blade in front holes)
Sealer Blade Pitch –
• Left blade should be set at nearly maximum pitch
• Right blade should be set at about half pitch when compared to
the left blade
Sealer Blade Down Pressure – Down Pressure Kits are recommended
for this residue situation
Basket Pressure – Running a basket is recommended for this residue
situation.
