TWO-SPEED POINT ROW CLUTCHES

Point row clutches are controlled by control console point row clutch switches. The point row switch shuts off left
or right half of planter. Activating reduced rate switch engages one solenoid on each clutch assembly and reduces
planting rate for entire planter.

NOTICE

Point row switch must be OFF and rate switch left in FULL RATE
when planter is not in use or tractor battery will be drained.

NOTE: Two-speed point row clutch is located ahead of liquid fertilizer squeeze pump and/or dry fertilizer drive.
Activating two-speed point row clutch reduced rate switch causes same per cent of reduction in dry or liquid
fertilizer (squeeze pump) application rates. Liquid fertilizer (piston pump) application rates are not be affected
because piston pump uses a dedicated drive tire.
