OPERATION

1. To install the desired seed plate, hold the seed plate at an angle with the bottom against the straight wall in the hopper. Line up the slots in the seed plate with the raised portions of the hub, hold it firmly against the inside of the hopper and rotate it approximately ½” in the “ON” direction as indicated by the arrow on the plate until the cam action locks the seed plate in place on the hub. Do Not force. OFF and ON, directions are indicated on the seed plates with arrows.

2. Next, set the planting depth with the wedge-shaped furrowing shoe located directly under the hopper. Note that there are graduations in inches on the sides of the seed tube. Move furrowing shoe until top edge is in line with desired planting depth. Retighten wing nut (35) after adjustment is made. Check the depth by moving the seeder forward a few inches.

3. Pour seeds in the seed hopper. CAUTION: Do not fill the hopper above the center of the seed plate.

4. Pour fertilizer into fertilizer hopper. CAUTION: Do not over fill the hopper. Allow 1" from, fertilizer to top edge of hopper

5. Adjust fertilizer flow by loosening wing nut on fertilizer hopper. Slide calibrated plate to desired setting and tighten wing nut. Before filling, shut off fertilizer control.
