Tractor Requirements

!
WARNING
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Do not use a tractor that is too small. Small tractors can be
pushed around and flipped over by the weight of the
attached implement.
•
Lightweight tractors with rear attached implements may
need weights added to the front to maintain steering
control. Consult your tractor Operator's Manual to
determine proper weight requirements and maximum
weight limitations.
IMPORTANT: The lower 3-point arms must be
stabilized to prevent side-to-side movement. Most
tractors have sway blocks or adjustable chains for
this purpose.
Make certain tractor's 3-point lifting capacity and weight
is capable of lifting and controlling the seeder under all
operating conditions. Refer to "Specifications &
Capacities" on page 73 for seeder weight.
Tractor horsepower and hitch category should be within
the range noted below. Tractors outside the horsepower
range must not be used.

Quick Hitch Compatibility
IMPORTANT: Use a quick hitch designed to lift and
transport the seeder fully loaded. Using a quick hitch
not designed to handle the seeder weight can
damage your quick hitch, seeder, and/or tractor.
The NTS Seeders are quick hitch compatible. Make sure
your quick hitch lift capacity is rated for picking up and
transporting a fully loaded seeder. Use Land Pride's
QH20 Quick Hitch or one that is compatible.

Torque Requirements

Refer to "Torque Values Chart for Common Bolt Sizes"
on page 72 to determine correct torque values when
tightening hardware. See "Additional Torque Values" at
bottom of chart for exceptions to common torque values.

Dealer Preparations

This NTS Seeder has been mostly assembled at the
factory. Some preparation will be necessary to attach the
seeder to the customer's tractor. Make sure the intended
tractor conforms to "Tractor Requirements" listed on
this page.
Go through the "Pre-Assembly Checklist" below before
assembling the NTS Seeder. Speed up the assembly
task and make the job safer by having all needed parts
and equipment readily at hand.
All major frame components
Location of fasteners and pins.
NOTE: All hardware from the factory has
been installed in its proper location. If a
part is temporarily removed for assembly
reasons, remember where it goes. Keep
parts separated.
Be sure the part gets used in the correct
location. Use parts manual to identify
location of parts that have been
removed. By double checking while you
assemble, you will lessen the chance of
using a part incorrectly that may be
needed later.
All working parts are moving freely, bolts
are tight and cotter pins are spread.
All grease fittings are in place and
lubricated.
Proper take-up and alignment of all drive
chains.
Safety decals are correctly located and
legible. Replace if damaged.
