Leveling the Drill
Perform leveling in representative field conditions. On
hard ground or pavement, coulters and openers may
prevent determination of drill level.
10. If caster swivel locks were engaged, retract the rods
and pin them up. See “Transporting” on page 25.
11. Extend lever for lift circuit to extend lift-assist
cylinders. See “Drill Lift/Lower (s/n A1059W+)” on
page 20.
12. Remove transport lock channels from lift assist
cylinders. See “Drill Lift/Lower (s/n A1059W+)” on
page 20.
Refer to Figure 7
13. Initially adjust tractor 3-point lift arms so opener tube
runs at the recommended initial height above ground
when drill is lowered in the field.
14. The drive wheel should be in the fourth mounting
hole from the top. This is the factory configuration.
Note: The drive wheel axle height may need to be
adjusted due to ground conditions. See page 34.
15. Check level of frame front-to-rear. If not level, adjust
the rear height with the stroke control spacers.
