Compatibility
Check for 00HD Row Units

serial number plate) against the list at the top of
page 1 to ensure it is a compatible model. This kit is
compatible only with 00HD Series openers, and not
with (non-HD) 00, 07HD and 10HD Series row
units.
Check for Mounting Holes

If the drill was manufactured prior to 2010, check
that the opener disk shield braces have two
0.41 inch (

If the brace lacks holes, they can be added in the
field, called for at step 11, and described in
“Appendix B - Brace Update” on page 9.
