General Instructions
Read all assembly instructions carefully and observe illustrations. Lubricate all bushings and moving
parts as you proceed. Bolts should be used in the holes in which they are designated. Leave bolts loose until
parts are attachments are completely assembled. Then tighten bolts. It is important that bolts are tight. Loose
bolts can cause breakage of parts. If bolts must be replaced, replace them only with bolts of equal strength.
The radial lines on the bolt determine their strength.
Periodic Check List
• Retighten all nuts and bolts. Shipping, transporting and general can cause nuts and bolts to become
loose.
• Check all drive chains, sprockets and keys. Verify drive chains and sprockets are properly aligned and
chains are proper length.
• Check seed meter adjustment. Move the seed rate adjuster lever to the “0” or closed position. Check all
seed meters to be sure all meters are in the fully closed position. If necessary, loosen the setscrews in the
locking collars of the seed meter and adjust all meters to the fully closed position.
