DANGER
Figure 2-12: Seeding
Make sure you cut the seeding rate in half when planting
in two passes.
• In most conditions, a single pass will be sufficient. If
conditions dictate, two or more tillage passes may be
done. Disengage Seed Meters by removing the seed
drive disconnect Klik Pin from the transmission and
storing it in the hole provided in the end of the shaft.
Once the soil is tilled sufficiently, engage seeding by
re-installing the seed drive disconnect Klik Pin into
sprocket and shaft to seed on the next pass.
• If very small seeds are being planted that need to be
very shallow or on the surface, use the gage wheels to
raise the tillage rotor partially or entirely out of the
ground for the final pass.
• Always raise the seeder out of the ground for sharp
turns.
