GENERAL INFORMATION
To achieve maximum performance, this machine must be assembled as outlined in this instruction manual.
The planter operator’s manual will NOT include attachment assembly information. Please keep a copy of this
instruction available for future attachment assembly.
Information in this instruction manual is divided into sections. These sections are identified at the top of each page.
Read all assembly instructions and carefully observe illustrations.
Leave bolts loose until parts or attachments are completely assembled. Then tighten bolts to torques shown in the
following chart unless otherwise specified. It is important that bolts are tight. Loose bolts can cause breakage of parts.
BOLT TORQUE
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST:
1. Improperly tightened bolts will result in damage, breakage, expense, and down time.
2. Always replace bolts with the specified grade and type.
3. Torque properly before first use of the machine and every 2-4 hours of use until you are sure bolts
are staying tight.
4. The chart below is a guide for proper torque. Use it unless a specified torque is called out
elsewhere in the manual.
5. Torque is the force you apply to the wrench handle or the cheater bar, times the length of the
handle or bar.
6. Use a torque wrench whenever possible.
The following table shows torque in ft. lbs.
Lubricate all bearings and moving parts as assembled and make certain that they work freely.
