  • Page 12: Operation

    OPERATION The 4000 Nutrient Pro single disc fertilizer is designed for use in most planting and side dress conditions. Placement of fertilizer with the single disc fertilizer opener is recommended at 2”-4” from the row. The opener is designed to hold the blade at a set angle so the knife & fertilizer tube operate in the shadow of the blade. NEVER locate the opener to place fertilizer closer than 2”.
  • Page 13 OPERATION STEP 2: SETTING THE DEPTH Planter mounted 4000 Nutrient Pro assemblies are only adjustable by the depth control pin. If 4000 Nutrient Pro assemblies are to be used for side dressing or pre-plant, raise or lower the coulter assembly/shank at the toolbar as needed to achieve the desired depth.
  • Page 14: Maintenance
