CAUTION!
Before installing the Precision Population Controller
on the seeding system, be sure the unit is properly sup-
ported to avoid injury during installation.
If the 3-Point Precision Seeding System is at-
tached to a Precision Hitch, it will be best to
remove it for easier access to the 3-point frame
and drive components.
