Before You Start

Each kit converts one ground drive. If your planter has
two drives, you need two kits.

For each kit, inventory the contents per the “Parts List
on page 7.

Review the instructions, to make sure the steps are
understood and what tools are expected.

Have the following items at hand:

• Operator’s Manual for your drill

• Updated Parts Manual for your drill

• Basic hand tools

If necessary, move the planter to a dry well-lighted loca-
tion suitable for disassembly.

1.

Raise the planter and install any lift or transport
locks. Attempting this update with the planter low-
ered is not recommended
.

2.

Secure the tractor if hitched.
