FRONT BAR MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Yetter Front Bar Mounting Kits are designed to provide 2-1/2” square bar in front of the planter 7 x 7 bar.
These attachments will not mount correctly on tractors with rear tires larger than recommended by tractor
manufacturers. Three-point hitches must comply with ASAE standards.
3PT. HITCH PLANTERS
Narrow Row (30” to 36” rows)
1. Category III Quick Coupler required on the tractor to allow bar installation. See opposite page.
2. Install brackets and bars as shown. The short 2-1/2” square tube mounts in the center.
3. The 67” long 2-1/2” square tubes need to be cut off to the proper length for each particular planter.
Set up as shown to determine where bars should be cut off. Provide at least 6” between bars in
hinge area to allow wing flex.
Wide Row (38” and 40” rows)
1. Category II or III N Quick Coupler is required on the tractor to allow bar installation.
2. No center bar is provided, or needed, for wide row application.
3. See item 3 above.
Raise planter slowly the first time and check for tire clearance. The coulter must be mounted away
from tire location to clear. Do not transport planter with less than 1” clearance between 2-1/2” square
bar and tractor tires.
NOTE: In some cases a hitch extension may be required for clearance between 2-1/2” bar and tractor
tires.
