Before You Start

location suitable for disassembly.

units, measure and mark the correct twin-row centerlines
desired.

toolbar between pairs of twin row units.
Note: Some planter configurations may have one or
both hose support brackets attached to the
toolbar between twinned row units. If no obstruc-
tions are found, skip to step 5.
Refer to Figure 1
2. Remove the U-bolts securing the hose support
brackets to the toolbar.
3. Relocate the hose support bracket mounting points
to outside row unit pairs.
