Seed depth - Rear Roller
The depth in which the application is done is controlled by adjust-
ing the basket located near of the machine. Adjusting the "Sowing
depth control device " as follows:
Turning knob clockwise will make the basket drop which in turn
will raise the disc openers and lessen the depth of the application.
Turning the knob counterclockwise would raise the basket which
would lower the disc openers and make the application deeper.
The top link on the tractor should be properly adjusted to carry the
machine level in an operating position. During operation, the tractor
lift must be fully lowered to allow the machine to follow the con-
tour of the ground.
The machine is totally ground driven so proceed with a speed that
is most comfortable and safe for existing conditions. Be sure to stop
forward motion before lifting machine off ground. This practice
will stop rollers from "free spinning" and therefore eliminate the
unwanted application when turning around.
Never operate the machine in reverse.
