Kinze 3605 - 15 Seed Opener Disc Blade;Bearing Assembly

Model 3605M0312-01
07/20 6-21
Lubrication and Maintenance
Maintain approximately 1" ± ½" (~2.5 ± 1 cm) of blade-to-blade
contact to properly open and form seed trench. As blade diameter
decreases due to wear, it is necessary to relocate machine bushings from inside
to outside to maintain 1" ± ½" (~2,5 ± 1 cm) of contact.
NOTE: Proper blade clearance is critical. Blades should have
1" ± ½" ( ~2,5 ± 1 cm ) contact in this area. When blades are turned
by hand in opposite directions against each other, there
should be only light resistance to turning. Re-adjust blade
scraper if necessary to center it between the blades.
NOTE: Replace blades If proper blade-to-blade contact cannot be
maintained after relocating machine bushings or if blade diameter
wears below 14½" (~37 cm).
15" SEED OPENER DISC BLADE/BEARING ASSEMBLY
Excessive blade contact may result
in premature disc opener bearing/hub
failures and excessive wear on seed
tube guard/inner scraper. When properly
adjusted, if one blade is held in fixed
position, opposite blade should rotate
with less than 5 pounds force (~22 N) at
outer edge of blade.
NOTICE
Approximately 1" ± ½"
(3 ± .5 cm) of
blade-to-blade contact.
