OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
Removing Drill from Pull Hitch
1. When removing the grain drill from the pull hitch,
park the drill on a level area to prevent rolling and
shifting. The Grain Drill has negative hitch weight and
will need to lowered to the ground for parking. Any
seed left in the drill will increase the negative hitch
weight. It is best to park the drill without any seed left
in the box.
The Grain Drill can have negative hitch weight. Use
a properly sized locking style hitch pin for the
tractor drawbar and drill hitch. Stand clear of hitch
when pinning/unpinning the drill hitch.
