Rolling Basket Assembly; Rolling Basket Assembly Installation - Orthman 1TRIPR II ROW UNITS Operator's Manual

PREPARATION AND SETUP

Rolling Basket Assembly

The rolling basket assembly is an option that features
adjustable down pressure to help break up remaining
clods and ensure smooth 1tRIPr® II operation. The
rolling basket is mounted to the rear of the row unit tail
section.
NOTE: Due to clearance issues, rolling baskets cannot be
used in conjunction with certain planter
attachment packages. A lift assist wheel extension
package is available to utilize rolling baskets and
lift assist wheels simultaneously. Contact your
Orthman dealer for lift assist wheel extension
package information to alleviate clearance issues.
