Feed Cup Adjustment:
Each feed cup is equipped with a four-position adjust-
ment handle.
A) The highest position is for wheat and other small
grains
B) The second is for soybeans and other large grains
C) The third is used if the seeds are cracking in the
second position
D) The bottom position is for clean out and will drain all
seed
Note: Do not open the seed cup handle to the bottom
position with seed in the box unless complete clean
out is desired. Changing this handle will change the
seeding rate. When storing after drilling season, it is
best to place the handle in the bottom position to pre-
vent damage from mice.
Select Drive Type:
The gearbox is designed to give a variety of drive
speeds for different types of seeds and rates. It is a lin-
ear shift pattern design with constant mesh gearing
and is totally sealed to keep any dirt out. No lubrication
is required unless service is needed.
1) To set the gearbox, move the selector handle until
the desired drive type appears in the window on the
handle.
