Drive wheel Module Assembly
wHEEL MODULE HEIgHT ADJUSTMENT
The drive wheel module assembly and center section gauge wheel assembly are designed so the drive wheel height
can be adjusted to maintain a frame height of 20" to 22" in all planting applications. This is particularly useful when
the planter is used for ridge planting or planting on beds. The wheel module assembly has an adjustment range of 7".
To adjust the wheel assembly, loosen the upper nut using a 1½" wrench or a 15" adjustable wrench and turn the lower
nut using a 1½" wrench or 15" adjustable wrench (clockwise to decrease frame height or counterclockwise to increase
frame height). Tighten the upper nut after adjustment is complete. Set all wheels equally.
Center Section gauge wheel Assembly
PARKINg STAND ADJUSTMENT
Two parking stands, located on the front side of the main frame, are standard on all Model 3140 planters. The stands
must be positioned so they are not directly behind the tractor tire or they will interfere when the planter is raised.
Each parking stand has six positioning holes. By using these positioning holes, you can set the main frame parking
height from 19" to 25".
Raise the stands to the top position and pin when planting; lower and pin for parking and storage.
