  • Page 66: General Guidelines

    Operation General Guidelines The results obtained from the Morris QUANTUM Drill are directly related to the depth uniformity of the unit. Worn points, uneven tire pressures, and bent shanks must be avoided to obtain optimum field results. • Operating depth should be uniform at all opener locations, when spot checking the implement in the field.

    Seeding Conditions The QUANTUM Air Drill is meant to be used as a minimum to no-till seeding system and care should be taken when attempting to seed into loose or pre- worked soil conditions.

  • Page 69: Air Drill Frame

    Operation Quick Tips - Continued Air Drill Frame The QUANTUM Air Drill frame is a simple slab frame system, designed to let the parallel link openers do the work of depth control and leveling during seeding. No leveling of the frame is required. During normal operation of the drill there will be very little weight on the rear tires of the frame.
