Row Unit Operation

Row unit mounted residue wheels are used on pull and push row units.

ROW UNIT MOUNTED RESIDUE WHEEL

Two adjustable springs on each residue wheel parallel links provide down force adjustment. Position 1 provides
minimum down pressure and position 3 maximum down pressure.


Raise row unit and reposition springs to adjust down pressure.

Position 1 (Least)

Position 2

Position 3 (Most)

Additional uplift or float

A full threaded bolt and jam nut located on the upper link sets maximum depth for loose soil conditions. Initial setting is
1¾" above row unit double disc opener depth.

Three holes in upper link adjust wheel angle. With wheel mount in most vertical position, using the rear hole in the
upper link, the residue wheel is most aggressive. Moving wheel mount to a forward hole reduces aggressiveness of
residue wheel for use in mulch till applications where soil is loose.

To lock residue wheel up, remove ½" x 5" lockup bolt, raise residue wheel and install bolt.
