4. Select the proper sprocket arrangement for the spacing needed between plants. Look on
page 2 or the chart on the side of your transplanter for the correct arrangement. For spac-
ings using 11 tooth sprockets, extra chain links may be needed to lengthen the drive chain.
These links are wired to the lift chain by the drive wheel. After fi nding the correct sprockets,
run the long drive chain from the sprocket on the pocket chain shaft to the inside sprocket
on the jackshaft of the direct drive wheel. The chain must go over the idler sprocket on the
shoe brace and under the chain tightener sprocket as shown in the photo below.
5. Slide the red pipe spacer back onto the jackshaft. Insert the roll pin back into the second hole from
the outside of the jackshaft. Slide the outside sprocket over the roll pin. Slide the drive chain coming
from the drive wheel over the outside jackshaft sprocket. You may have to use your hand to push
the chain tightener up to create enough slack in the chain. Insert the clip pin into the outside hole of
the jackshaft.
6. Slide the outside chain guard onto the two pins and secure with clip pins.
