Wing Box Alignment
1.
Place a block ahead of the wing gauge
wheels.
2. Pull forward against blocks to rock wing
frames back. Pull forward until stop bolts are
firmly against toolbars. Refer to Figure 8 for
stop bolt location.
3. Check for proper alignment by running a
string line across back of drill toward outer
ends of wings. For proper alignment, outside
ends of boxes should be about 1 inch to 1-1/4
inch ahead of inside ends. See Figure 9.
4. To adjust box alignment, shorten or lengthen
stop bolts to change the contact point with the
toolbars. Adjust stop bolts in or out until out-
side ends of boxes are 1 inch to 1-1/4 inch
ahead of inside ends.
Opener Frame Clearance
Refer to Figure 10.
When fully raised, top of opener mounts (1)
should clear bottom of drill frame tube by at least
1/2 inch.
To adjust opener frames so all openers have the
same clearance, loosen jam nut (2) on opener lift
cylinders and turn adjustment nut. When openers
are at the correct height, retighten jam nut. Re-
peat at each opener lift cylinder if necessary.
