INSTALLATION OF AUTOMATIC
RESET TRIP LINKAGE
One of the most innovative Orthman 1tRIPr® row unit accessories is the Automatic Reset
Trip Linkage. This allows the row unit to be tripped by underground obstructions and then
automatically reset. This helps protect the shank and wavy coulter tooling. The Automatic
Reset “AR” Linkage will be installed on your 1tRIPr® machine from the factory if ordered
with that option. The AR Linkage can also be ordered as a package and adapted to any
standard row unit made in 2009 or later.
AVOID CRUSHING. Make sure all personnel are clear of the implement. Lower implement
to the ground, place tractor in park, turn off engine, and remove key.
USE BAR STANDS TO SUPPORT THE IMPLEMENT. Park implement on a clean, dry,
and level surface. An uneven surface could cause implement to shift or fall, resulting in
personal injury or death, as well as implement damage. Securely support all implement
components that must be raised. Remove buildup of grease, oil, or debris prior to
adjusting.
If installing the AR linkage to a 1tRIPr® row unit please follow these instructions.
If AR linkage is already installed onto your machine’s row units, please advance to the AR
linkage field settings section.
1. Locate the trip linkage pivot points on the tail and mainframe sections,
