Frame Adjustments

Eyebolt Adjustment
Before using the drill, check that opener frames are level
across drill. When fully raised, top of opener mounts (1)
should clear bottom of drill frame tube by no more than
1/2 inch.

Adjust opener frames so all openers have the same clear-
ance. Loosen jam nut (2) on opener-lift cylinders and turn
adjustment nut. See Figure 2-14. When openers are at
correct height, retighten jam nut. Repeat at each opener-
lift cylinder if necessary.

Place a block ahead of each wing gauge wheel. Pull
drill forward against blocks to rock frames back. Pull
forward until stop bolts are firmly against toolbars. Re-
fer to Figure 2-16 for stop-bolt location.

proper alignment, outside ends of boxes should be
about 1 inch ahead of inside ends. See Figure 2-17.
