To check exact number of gallons your fertilizer attachment will actually deliver on a 20" or 22" row spacing:
1. Remove hose from one fertilizer opener and insert it into a collection container secured planter frame.
2. Engage fertilizer attachment and drive forward for 170'.
3. Measure fluid ounces caught in container and multiply by 24. Divide that amount by the row spacing in inches. Result is gallons
of fertilizer delivered per acre.
4. Rinse collection container and repeat test on other rows if necessary.
