MAN0988 (11/5/2012)
A minimum 20% of tractor and equipment
weight must be on the tractor front wheels when
attachments are in transport position. Without this
weight, front tractor wheels could raise up result-
ing in loss of steering. The weight may be attained
with front wheel weights, ballast in tires, front trac-
tor weights or front loader. Weigh the tractor and
equipment. Do not estimate.

ATTACHING PRECISION SUPER SEEDER
TO TRACTOR (3-POINT HITCH)
NOTE: The Precision Super Seeder is designed for
use on Category I and II, 3-point hitch tractors. See
page 4 for specifications.
NOTE: For Category II fixed hitch usage, remove
Quick Hitch 3/4" bolt, nut and sleeve to prevent dam-
age to tractor’s 3-point top link.
1. Attach the tractor’s lower lift arms to the seeder
and secure with mounting pins and klik pins. See
Figure 7, 8 and 9.
2. Attach the tractor’s top link to the mast plates of the
seeder. For controlled depth of tillage, use the
fixed-pin location above the quick hitch bushing.
See Figure 7, 8 and 9.
3. To enable the seeder to follow the contours of
uneven ground, install the tractor’s top link in the
long slot in the top of the mast plates. For proper
float (up and down) the top link pin should be
centered in the slot (recommended for beginners).
4. For quick hitch use, install the available quick hitch
bushings. The seeder will not float with a quick
hitch installed.
5. Adjust the lower lift arm anti-sway device to
prevent excessive side-to-side movement of the
seeder.
NOTE: The seeder can be operated in a float or fixed
3-point hitch position. For beginning usage, the float
position is recommended. See Figure 7.
NOTE: An optional Quick Hitch Bushing, P/N 1002012
is available.
