Walkboard Ladders
The walkboard between the hoppers is served by two
ladders, one on each side of the cart. When the auger is
latched in the storage position, it obstructs use of the
ladder on the right side.
The ladder on the right side is also removable, to allow
auger access under the rear meter box.
Ladder Operation
Refer to Figure 23
Both ladders have swing-down lower sections. These
need to be raised for transport and planting.
To stow a lower ladder section, swing it up until a
spring-loaded pin
engages a cutout in the right side of
the step frame. Make sure the pin engages, or the ladder
may swing down during cart movement.
To lower the ladder section, pull the pin out and swing the
section down.
Removing the Right Ladder
Refer to Figure 24
If unloading the rear hopper, the lower section of the
right side walkboard ladder must be removed for auger
access to the rear meter.
Note: This ladder section is easier to handle if the bottom
step is swung up and pinned first.
5. Latch open the pins that secure the lower ladder
section to the cart frame.
6. Swing the ladder out and lift the hooks off the
outer rung of the step at the cart frame. Set the
ladder down clear of the operating area.
To re-install the right ladder:
1. Release the pin lever arms.
2. Place the hooks over the outer rung of the step at the
cart frame.
3. Swing the ladder onto the cart until the pins re-seat.
