Machine Operation

wINg FLEx

Two hooks located over each wing hinge area can be positioned so toolbar (a) is locked rigid, (b) so planter wings
have 8° up flex or (c) with Wing Down Flex Cylinder Package (See “Wing Down Flex Cylinder”) installed, so planter
wings have 8° up flex and 8° down flex.

To change the hook from one position to the other:

1. Lower the planter to the ground so weight is off of the toolbar and relieve hydraulic pressure in the wing fold cylinders.

2. Remove lynch pin and 6¾" pin.

3. Loosen

¾

" hook mounting hardware and rotate the hooks back off of the hinge pin. (It may be necessary to raise the

outer end of the wing up several inches to take pressure off of the hooks to allow them to rotate.)

½

" x 6" cap screw and sleeve.

5. Remove

" hook mounting hardware.

6. Install hooks in new position. Tighten ¾" hardware.
