LEVEL PLANTER
Approximately
parallel with
planting surface
Toolbar should operate at 23"-25" (58 - 63 cm) height from planting surface. Tire pressures must be maintained at
pressures specified for planter to operate level laterally. Check toolbar and row unit parallel arms are level front to back
with planter lowered to proper operating height.
On models equipped with drawbar hitch, five holes in the hitch bracket allow clevis to be raised or lowered. Clevis may
be turned over for a finer adjustment between mounting holes. Torque hardware to 840 ft-lb (1138.8 N-m).
On models equipped with a 2-point hitch, the hitch is adjusted by the tractor 2-point hitch to achieve hitch level to
slightly uphill.
Field and actual planting conditions determine which wheel settings to use to ensure row unit parallel arms are
approximately parallel with planting surface. If planting in extremely soft soil conditions it may be necessary to move
ground drive tires to lower sets of mounting holes. To allow adequate drive force after lowering the ground drive tires,
it may be necessary to lower contact drive arms to lower set of holes in wheel module and relocate down pressure
springs to lower mounting rod on wheel module.
If planter center is higher or lower than wings after rephasing, contact your Kinze Dealer for valve adjustment or
maintenance.
