FRAME MOUNTED COULTER (PULL ROW ONLY)
Frame mounted coulters with 1" bubbled, 1" fluted (8 flutes) or ¾"
fluted (13 flutes) blades are used on pull row units only.
Springs provide down pressure on coulter for maximum penetration
while exerting less shock load on row unit.
Initial coulter blade location is in top hole. Relocate blade to one of
lower two holes (1" increments) as wear occurs or for deeper blade
operation.
DOWN PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT
Raise planter. Turn spring adjustment bolts clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease down pressure. Set
both springs to specification shown in following table:

penetration.
