BRACKET ASSEMBLY
1. Attach the Combo Arm W.A. (#24) to the SpaceSaver bracket using two 5/8” x 1-3/4” bolts flatwashers,
9/16” bushings and lock nut.
2. Attach the spoke wheel assembly to the bracket, using 5/8” x 2-3/4” ‘D’ Bolt, washer, and lock nut.
Torque 150 ft.lbs.
3. Install adjustment pin at desired setting and secure with 1/8” hairpin cotter.
OPERATION
1. Set/mount coulter blades to run perpendicular to the soil. Operation depth and blade wear can be
affected if the coulter is mounted crooked or if the toolbar is not level side to side.
2. After a few hours of use, check all bolts for tightness and proper torque.
3. Adjust the residue manager to move crop residue aside and not move any soil. Adjustments to the
residue manager may have to be made when changing field conditions and type and amount of
residue.
ROW CLEANER DO’S AND DON’TS
1. DO NOT move soil; Residue Managers are designed to move crop residue only.
2. DO NOT operate planter at slow speeds, ground speed affects how aggressive the spoke
wheels are; operate at sufficient speed (4-6 mph) to maintain good residue flow.
3. DO NOT expect 100% of crop residue to be cleared, it is not necessary and would
necessitate engaging the soil. The width of path cleared depends on ground conditions,
depth setting and ground speed.
4. DO expect to see wheels occasionally quit turning, indicates ideal (shallow) setting which is
not moving soil.
5. DO adjust toolbar frame height 20”-22” and drawbar correctly. Very important to ensure
planter units will follow ground contours properly.
6. Do adjust planter unit down pressure kit correctly to prevent excessive depth in soft, loose
soils.
MAINTENANCE
LUBRICATION: USE #2 MULTI-PURPOSE LITHIUM GREASE
To ensure longevity and reliability of 2960-013 coulter, the recommended lubrication schedule should be followed using
multi-purpose grease at hourly intervals as indicated.
