Seed, Small Seeds, Native Grass
and Fertilizer Rate Charts
The following pages are to assist in the proper setting of seeding and fertilizer rates for the 2007+ 706NT and 1006NT No-Till Drills.
The rates indicated in the charts are approximate values. To assure the
most accurate seeding rate it is recommended that the drill be calibrated for
the desired seed at the time of planting.

Main Seed Box Planting
1
Calibrating the seeding rate requires four steps:
1. selecting one of four drive types,
2. setting the seed-rate handle,
3. positioning the feed-cup door, and
4. checking the seed rate.
Refer to the seed rate charts beginning on page 4.
These charts list the proper drive type and seed-ratehandle settings for various seeds and seeding rates.
The seed rate charts are based on cleaned, untreated
seed of average size and test weight. The rates are
based on 9.00 x 24 rib implement tires. Many factors
will affect seeding rates including foreign material,
seed treatment, seed size, field conditions, tire pressure and test weight. Minor adjustments likely will be
needed. Set and check the seeding rate using the procedures on page 2, then adjust the rate as necessary.
Select Drive Type
Refer to Figure 1
The gearbox is designed to give you a variety of drive
speeds for different types of seeds and rates. It is a linear shift pattern design with constant mesh gearing
and totally sealed to keep the dirt out. No lubrication is
required unless service is needed.
The gearbox brass indicator plate is positioned so the
side with “1” is closest to the center of the drill.

To set the gearbox move the selector handle until
the desired drive type appears in the window on the
handle

Set Seed-Rate Handle
Refer to Figure 2
The seed rate handle controls the percent engagement of the seed sprocket in each seed cup.
1. Loosen wing nut under handle.
2. Set indicator to just past value from seed rate
chart.
3. Tighten wing nut.

Position Seed Cup Doors
Refer to Figure 3,
which depicts the seed cup door handle in position .
At each seed box seed tube, adjust the seed cup door
handle for the seed size.
4
The handle has three normal operating position
detents:
(top detent) is for the smallest seeds.
1
Use it for wheat and similar small seeds.
(middle detent) is for larger seeds.
2
Use it for soybeans and similar larger seeds.
(bottom detent) is for oversize or fragile seeds.

Checking Seed Rate
1. To calibrate, use either the left hand gauge wheel
or the supplied calibration crank. If using the calibration crank, attach crank to coupler on gauge
wheel jackshaft with retaining pin and disengage
lockout on drive wheel.
2. Rotate left hand gauge wheel or calibration crank
to see that feed cups and drive are working properly and are free from foreign matter.
3. To adjust seeding rate, decide which drive type
(gearbox) setting you need from the seeding
charts beginning on page 4. Set the gearbox.
Rotate drive tire or calibration crank a few turns to
confirm gearbox has engaged.
4. Record weight of an empty container large enough
to hold seed metered for one acre.
5. Place several pounds of seed over three seed
cups on an outside end of drill box. Pull seed
tubes off of these three openers.
6. Turn drive gauge wheel or calibration crank several times to fill seed cups with seed. Turn wheel
or crank until seed falls to the ground from each
cup.
7. Rotate drive gauge wheel or calibration crank
595 rotations for the 706 and
411 rotations for the 1006.
This is equal to one acre.

Note: Youcanalsorotate the gauge wheel jackshaftby
means of a wrench or socket. If rotating gauge
wheel jackshaft, disengage the lockout on the
drivewheel andusesame numberofrotations as
for rotating drive wheel.
8. Check that the three seed cups have plenty of
seed coming into them.
9. Weigh metered seed. Subtract initial weight of
container. Divide by three. Multiply by the number
of openers on your drill to determine total pounds
seeded per acre. If this figure is different than
desired, set your seed rate adjustment handle
accordingly.
Note: Youmaywanttorepeat the calibration procedure
if your results vary greatly from seed rate chart.
10. When drilling, check seeding rate by noting acres
drilled, amount of seed added to drill and seed
level in drill box. If you are seeding more or less
than desired, adjust seeding rate slightly to compensate for field conditions.
