OPERATION
STEP 2. Set the coulter depth based on soil conditions, (i.e. tilth, stones or crop residue). For proper
operation of the Maverick Opener , the coulter must cut through crop residues including roots. For best
performance 3”-4” depth is recommended. Maximum depth is 6”, raising blades helps to cut residue rather
than pushing it ahead and not cutting. Deep blades put the hub and mounting plates close to the surface
and create plugging in heavy residue.
NOTE: When properly adjusted the Maverick Opener Generation II will ride up and over rocks and
other obstacles if present in the soil.
STEP 3. Set the knife depth for typical application of fertilizer in the lower adjustment holes and for shallow
applications use the upper set of holes.
