Tractor Requirements
3-point mounted drills are equipped with a bolt-on hitch, adjustable to handle either CAT II, CAT III Narrow or
CAT III tractor lift links or quick hitches. Refer to Tractor Specifications and Capacities for seeder weigh
t.
Caution
Caution: Before hitching the tractor to a 3-point mounted
drill be certain the tractor front end is properly weighted
to handle the weight of the drill when it is fully loaded with
seed.
Tractor 3 Point Hookup
1. Back tractor up to seeder until 3 Point links are aligned with 3 Point hitch brackets on seeder.
2. Secure the tractor’s 3 Point lower links to the lower 3-Point brackets using 1-1/8” diameter hitch pins.
Pull Type Hookup
Remlinger pull type drills are designed to work with CAT II or III drawbar tractor using a minimum 1” diameter
pin. The drill requires two hydraulic outlets.
Storage
• At the end of the working season or when your grain drill will not be used for a long period, it is good
practice to clean off any dirt or grease that may have accumulated on the seeder and any of the moving
parts.
• Be sure that the seed box is completely cleaned before storing.
• Lubricate (with multi-purpose grease) all fittings as indicated in picture below.
• Each meter shaft at drive end sprocket, center coupler and end guide on each hopper should be oiled to
prevent seizing. Squirt oil on the square drive shaft and move the seed meter adjustment lever back and
forth in order to get the oil back into the square.
• Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to prevent rust.
• Replace all damaged or missing decals.
• Store the grain drill inside if possible. Inside storage will reduce maintenance and make for a longer seeder
life.
• Inspect for loose, damaged or worn parts and adjust or replace if needed.
