Depth lever
Use the depth lever to raise and lower the blades
between working and transport position. When the
lever is up, the blades are in working position.
Blades should penetrate the soil to a depth of 1/8"
to 1/4" with a maximum penetration of 1/2". Check
your seed bag for the manufacture's recommended
depth of application.
Depth knob
The knob is used to adjust the cutting depth of the
blades. Turning the knob counterclockwise
increases the working depth. A shim has been
added at the factory to keep the blades from
penetrating the soil too deeply. As the blades wear,
remove the shim and store below the depth lock
until new blades are added, then replace the shim
in the original position.
Depth lock
The red knob under the depth knob is used to lock
the depth knob to prevent it being changed by
machine vibrations. Undo the depth lock by turning
it counterclockwise before turning the depth knob.
Secure the depth knob with the depth lock after
adjusting settings.
Clutch
The clutch tightens the drive belt and engages the
drive for the blades. When the clutch lever is
pressed against the handle, the blades begin to
rotate. Hold the clutch tightly when working so that
the belt does not slip.
