Landoll BDH512 Double Seeder Hitch - Manual (Page 30)

3-4 F-645
OPERATIONS
Operating Position
• When making turns at the end of the field, the rear
seeder must be raised, or it will cause the caster
wheel to skid sideways.
• Use extreme caution when turning corners. When
turning left, the seeder swings widely to the right.
• The left edge of the front seeder follows directly
along the center of the tractor.
• The overlap of the seeders can be adjusted using the
turnbuckle. Extending the turnbuckle increases the
overlap.
NOTE
If more downward force is required on the rear hitch,
increase the tension on the lower Spring Bolt nut.
When operating in fields with irregular contours, the
position of the rear seeder can be adjusted by carefully
adjusting the hydraulic cylinder stroke slightly.
