Assembly
IMPORTANT
The clutch must be disengaged (power off) when
Seed Shafts are turned manually.
After you have serviced a Seed Shaft, Seed Meters or
related components you will need to Zero out the Seed
Meters to ensure that you are seeding uniformly. Refer to
Seed Meter Adjustment. The following is a list of things to
be conscience of when re-assembling the Seed Shafts.
•
Ensure that the Thrust Washers are adjacent to Seed
Meter Feed Cut Offs and Spacers or Square Bore
Collars. See Figure 5-6.

Coupling Assembly between 1/2" to 3/4". Seed Shaft
should be visibly past the set screw hole when the
set screw is removed from the Coupler. Tighten Feed
Roll Coupler Assembly Set Screws against the flats
of the Seed Shaft.
•
Ensure that the Seed Shaft can turn freely without
any binding when the Seed Meters are open or
closed after servicing. You may need to make
