Important Safety Information
Look for Safety Symbol
The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is
a potential hazard to personal safety involved and
extra safety precaution must be taken. When you
see this symbol, be alert and carefully read the
message that follows it. In addition to design and
configuration of equipment, hazard control and
accident prevention are dependent upon the
awareness, concern, prudence and proper training of personnel involved in the operation,
transport, maintenance and storage of
equipment.
Important Safety Information
1
Be Aware of Signal Words
Signal words designate a degree or level of hazard seriousness.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury. This signal word is limited to the
most extreme situations, typically for machine
components that, for functional purposes, cannot
be guarded.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury, and includes hazards that are exposed when guards are removed. It may also be
used to alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.

Hitching Tractor to Drill
You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed
between the tractor and drill. Do not stand or place
any part of your body between drill and moving tractor. Stop tractor engine and set park brake before installing the hitch pin.
1. Use the drill jack to raise or lower the tongue
as needed. Hitch the drill to the tractor using a
hitch pin of adequate strength (at least one
inch in diameter).
2. Install a retaining clip on the hitch pin to prevent it from working up. Securely attach drill
safety chain to tractor drawbar.
Preparation and Setup
17
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid
the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting
hydraulic lines. Use a piece of paper or cardboard,
NOT BODY PARTS, to check for leaks. Wear protective
gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working
with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs, see a
doctor immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin
must be surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene will result.
3. Connect hydraulic hoses to tractor remotes.
Refer to “Hydraulic Hose Hookup,” page 16.
4. Plug the drill light cable to the tractor. If outfitted with an optional population monitor, connect monitor lead to monitor harness.
5. Plug electric clutch cable to the switch control
box cable.
Note: Switch control box should be mounted
in your tractor cab in a location with easy access. Route wiring harness with enough slack
to allow for tractor movement, especially articulating tractors.
6. Crank the jack until tongue weight is resting
on the tractor drawbar. Unpin the tongue jack
from the hitching stob. Pin the jack to the stob
on top of the tongue.

Hitch Height Adjustment
For proper operation, the drill tongue must run
parallel to the ground in field position. Follow
these instructions to adjust the drill hitch to match
your tractor drawbar height.
Refer to Figure 1
1. Check the distance from the bottom of the
tongue to the ground as shown. Using the drill
jack, adjust the tongue up or down until the
distance is about 45 inches.
2. Back the tractor drawbar up to the drill hitch.
Determine how much adjustment is needed
for the drill to match drawbar height.
45 inches
Refer to Figure 2
3. Unbolt the hitch from the tongue. Rebolt the
hitch so the drill matches drawbar height.
When hitching the drill to a different tractor, check for
differences in drawbar heights and re-adjust the drill
hitch accordingly.

Bleeding Hydraulics
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to penetrate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines
and fittings before applying pressure. Fluid escaping
from a very small hole can be almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts, and wear heavy
gloves to check for suspected leaks. If injured, seek
medical assistance from a doctor that is familiar with
this type of injury. Foreign fluids in the tissue must be
surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene
will result.
Bleeding Lift Hydraulics
The lift system is equipped with rephasing hydraulic cylinders that require a special procedure
for bleeding air from the system. Read and follow
the procedure carefully.
1. Check hydraulic fluid level in tractor reservoir
and fill to proper level. Add fluid to system as
needed while cycling new cylinders.
Preparation and Setup

2. Lower drill to ground.
3. Unpin rod ends of wheel cylinders. Pivot cylinders up and wire or otherwise safely support rodends higherthan base ends. You may
need to remove the gauge-wheel cylinders
from the rockshaft so you can orient them with
rod ends higher than base ends.
4. With the tractor engine at idle speed,energize
the lift hydraulics. When the cylinders have
extended completely, hold the remote lever
on for one minute. Check all hydraulic hoses,
cylinders and fittings for leaks.
5. Retract the cylinder rods. Extend the rods
again and hold the remote lever on for one
more minute. Repeat this step two more
times.
6. Again, check all hydraulic hoses, cylinders
and fittings for leaks. Recheck the tractor hydraulic reservoir. Fill to the proper level.
7. Repin all cylinders.
Bleeding Fold Hydraulics
Check hydraulic fluid level in tractor reservoir and
fill to proper level. Add fluid to system as needed
while cycling new cylinders.

If drill fold cylinders have not been extended:
1. Crack fittings at base end of cylinders. Extend
cylinders to purge air from system.
2. Crack fittings at rod end of cylinders. Retract
cylinders to purge remaining air from system.
3. Tighten all fittings. Extend cylinders and pin to
drill lugs.
If drill cylinders have been extended:
1. Unfold drill so that fold cylinders are completely extended. Lower drill to ground. Unpin
rod ends of fold cylinders.
2. Crack fittings on rod end of cylinders. Purge
air from cylinders by retracting cylinder rods.
3. Crack fittings at base end of cylinders. Extend
cylinders to purge remaining air from system.
4. Tighten all fittings. Repin cylinders to drill.
Bleeding Marker Hydraulics
To fold properly, the marker hydraulics must be
free of air. If the markers fold in jerky, uneven motions, follow these steps.
You may be injured if hit by a folding or unfolding
marker. Markers may fall quickly and unexpectedly if
the hydraulics fail. Never allow anyone near the drill
when folding or unfolding the markers.
Check that tractor hydraulic reservoir is full.
1. With both markers lowered into field position,
loosen hydraulic-hose fittings at rod and base
ends of marker cylinders. If applicable, loosen
fittings on back side of sequence valve.
Never bleed an O-ring fitting. Instead, bleed a nearby
pipe or JIC fitting.
2. With tractor idling, activate tractor hydraulic
valve until oil seeps out around a loosened fitting. Tighten that fitting.
JIC fittings do not require high torque. JIC and Oring fittings do not require sealant. Always use liquid
pipe sealant when adding or replacing pipe-thread
fittings. To avoid cracking hydraulic fittings from over
tightening, do not use plastic sealant tape.
196-248M
4/23/2010
Page 23
3. Reactivate tractor hydraulic valve until oil
seeps out around another loosened fitting.
Tighten that fitting. Repeat process until all
loosened fittings have been bled and tightened.
Leveling Frame Side-to-Side
All frame sections must be level to maintain even
seeding depth. Before using the drill in the field,
follow these steps to make sure the drill is level
side-to-side.
Periodic frame-leveling adjustments should not
be necessary, but if you are having problems with
uneven depth, check drill levelness and follow
these procedures.
Complete the steps under “Bleeding Fold Hydraulics,” page 19, before proceeding.
Refer to Figure 3
Preparation and Setup
21
1. Locate the threaded eye bolt at the base end
of the gauge-wheel cylinders. The eye bolt is
locked in place by a jam nut. Observe the
amount of thread exposed above the upper
nut and below the lower nut. If the exposed
threads are roughly equal, no initial adjustment is needed. Go to step 3.
2. If the exposed threads above and below the
nuts are not equal, loosen and adjust the jam
nuts until the amount of exposed thread is
about the same above and below. Repeat for
other end of drill.
3. Move the drill to a level area. With the drill unfolded, raise the drill to its highest position
with the lift cylinders. With the tractor idling,
rephase the cylinders by holding the hydraulic
lever on for an additional 30 seconds. Immediately lower the boxes until the coulters and
openers are just ready to touch the ground.
4. Move the gauge-wheel eye bolts until the
openers on the outside end of the drill are the
same height as the center openers.
NOTE: Eye-bolt adjustments are easier if the
drill is first lowered to the ground to remove
some of the force on the cylinders.
5. Repeat the steps above until the drill is level
end-to-end when drilling in actual seeding
conditions.

Operating Instructions
This section covers general operating procedures. Experience, machine familiarity and the
following information will lead to efficient operation and good working habits. Always operate
farm machinery with safety in mind.
Prestart Checklist
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to penetrate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines
and fittings before applying pressure. Fluid escaping
from a very small hole can be almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts, and wear heavy
gloves to check for suspected leaks. If injured, seek
medical assistance from a doctor that is familiar with
this type of injury. Foreign fluids in the tissue must be
surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene
will result.

Transporting
Towing the drill at high speeds or with a vehicle that is
not heavy enough could lead to loss of vehicle control.
Loss of vehicle control could lead to serious road accidents, injury and death. To reduce the hazard, do not
exceed 20 mph.
Before transporting the drill, follow and check
these items:
Unload seed box. Unload seed box before transporting if at all possible. To do so:
• Place tarp under drill or a bucket under each
seed meter.
• Use large bucket to empty box as much as
possible. Make sure sliding seed tubes are in
the open position. Open seed meter clean out
to empty seed out of sliding seed tube and
meter.
The drill can be transported with a full box of grain,
but the added weight will increase stopping distance and decrease maneuverability.
Road rules. Comply with all federal, state and local safety laws when traveling on public roads.

Adjustments
No-Till Seeding
To get full performance from your no-till drill, you
need a good understanding of coulter, opener
and press wheel operation.
Coulters
A no-till coulter is mounted directly ahead of each
opener. The coulters cut through heavy trash and
till a small strip so the openers can penetrate the
soil easily. To maintain even seeding depth, the
coulters must cut below the openers.
The coulters are mounted directly on the box
frame. Consequently, the cutting depth of all
coulters changes as the drill is lifted and lowered.
The cutting depth of the coulters is controlled by
an adjustable hydraulic depth stop. Coulters that
run directly in tire tracks can be lowered individually. Refer to “Coulter Adjustments,” page 31, for
information on how to make these adjustments.
Openers
Each opener is mounted on the drill with parallel
arms. This parallel-action mounting allows the
opener to move up and down while staying in-line
with a coulter. Opener double disks widen the
coulter groove, making a seed bed. A seed tube
mounted between the disks delivers seed to the
trench.The down force needed to cut and widen
the coulter groove is supplied by two springs nested in the parallel linkage. Adjusting these springs
changes opener down-force. Refer to “Opener
Down Pressure,” page 33, for information on how
to make this adjustment.
Press Wheels
Attached to the rear of each opener is one of several press-wheel options. The press wheels
provide two important functions.
196-248M
First, the press wheels close the furrow, gently
pressing the soil over the seed. To provide consistent seed firming, the press wheels are free to
move downward from their normal operating position. This system maintains pressing action
even if the opener arm is lifted when the disks encounter obstructions.
4/23/2010
Page 33
Second, the press wheels provide opener depth
control. The higher the press wheels run relative
to the double disks, the deeper seed will be
placed. To maintain a consistent depth, upward
press-wheel movement is restricted by an independently adjustable stop on each opener. Refer
to “Opener Seeding Depth,” page 34, for information on how to make this adjustment.
Coulter Adjustments
The drill is assembled so that when the coulters
are at two inches deep, the seedingdepth is about
one inch. This is a good baseline setting for most
seeding operations. As field conditions warrant,
you can change settings on the entire drill or individual coulters.
Adjustments
31
To prevent uneven seeding depth and excess opener
wear, run coulters at least 1 inch below seeding
depth.
Hydraulic Depth Control
Refer to Figure 12
The field-lift cylinder on the left transport wheel is
equipped with a hydraulic valve that regulates
coulter depth. Use the valve and knob shown to
adjust coulter depth.
Turn the knob clockwise to lower the coulters.
Each clockwise rotation will lower the coulters
about 3/32 inches. Make depth adjustments with
the implement slightly raised. After adjusting the
valve, raise and lower the implement several
times and recheck coulter depth.
The depth stop regulates depth on all coulters. If
the ends of either box run higher or lower than the
center, the field-lift system may be out of phase or
have air in it, or the frame sections may not be level. Refer to “Rephasing Lift System,” page 24,
“Bleeding Lift Hydraulics,” page 19, or “Leveling
Frame Side-to-Side,” page 21.

Weights
Transport Hazard. Adding more than the recommend
weight to the drill frame could cause a tire to blow during transport, leading to a serious road accident and
personal injury. Do not add more than 2000 pounds to
the drill frame.

32
If more weight is required for coulters to penetrate
the soil, weight bracket kits are available from your
Great Plains dealer. Refer to “Weight Brackets,”
page 71 for part numbers and ordering
information.
Refer to the charts for the results of adding
weights to your drill. Always add an equal amount
of weight to each frame section.
NOTE: Markers, harrow, and seed will add
weight to the drill.
Coulter Springs
The coulter spring length is preset at 10 inches,
giving the coulter an initial operating force of 400
pounds. This setting is adequate for many difficult
no-till conditions. For lighter no-till conditions
where rocks or other obstructions are a problem,
you can lengthen the springs to protect the
coulters from impact. In heavier conditions, shortening the spring will increase coulter force. Refer
to the chart below for adjusting the coulter
springs.

Individual Coulters
Refer to Figure 13
When coulters follow in tire tracks and do not give
satisfactory depth, individual coulters can be lowered by loosening the mounting clamps and
adjusting the coulter to the desired setting.
To retighten clamps, snug the hex-head clamp
bolts (1) just until the u-bolts are tight on eachside
of the spring bar. Tighten nuts on u-bolts (2), then
finish tightening the hex-head clamp bolts.
NOTE: There may be as much as a 1/8-inch
gap between the clamp plates even when the
coulter is mounted securely.

You can adjust down pressure individually for
each opener. This is useful for penetrating hard
soil and planting in tire tracks.
Use enough down pressure to cut the seed trench
and maintain proper soil-firming over seed. Excessive opener down force will lead to premature
wear on opener components.
Refer to Figure 15
To adjust down pressure, use adjustment tool
stored under walkboard. Position tool in hole on
spring mounting plates, and pull down as shown.

Opener Seeding Depth
A press wheel attached to each opener body controls seeding depth. To maintain consistent depth,
the relationship between the bottom of the opener
disks and press wheel is fixed upwardly.
The press wheels also close the seed trench and
gently press soil over seed. To provide consistent
soil firming, press wheels are free to move down
from normal operating position. This maintains
pressing action even if opener disks encounter
obstructions or hard soil.
Refer to Figure 17
Set opener seeding depth by adjusting T-handles.
To adjust, first raise openers slightly, then lift and
slide T-handles on top of openers as shown. Adjust all T-handles to the same setting.

At the same time, keep the side gauge wheels close
to the opener disks so openers do not plug with soil
or trash but far enough out so the disks and wheels
turn freely.
• If contact point is between 4 to 8 o’clock but
distance to tire is not correct, then add or re-
move shims as needed. DO NOT ADJUST

Checking Volumetric Seeding Rate
The seed charts are based on cleaned seed and
12.5 x 15, rib implement transport tires and 13 x
5.00 - 6 contact drive wheel tires. Factors including foreign material, seed treatment, seed size,
seed weight, field conditions and tire pressure will
affect seeding rate. Set and check the seeding
rate, then readjust the rate as necessary.
1. Record the weight of an empty container
large enough to holdseed metered from three
meters for one acre.
2. Place several pounds of seed over three seed
meters on an outside end of the drill box.
NOTE: If drill box is full, shut off sliding seed
tubes to all but three meters on an outside
end.
Refer to Figure 31
3. Turn contact drive wheel clockwise a few
turns to fill meters with seed and until seed
drops to ground from all three openers.
4. Place a container under the three openers to
gather seed as it is metered.
5. Turn contact drive wheel clockwise 420 revolutions. Check to make sure seed tubes have
plenty of seed covering them.
6. Weigh measured seed. Subtract initial weight
of empty container. Divide by three for the
amount metered by each meter, then multiply
by the number of drill openers for the poundsper-acre seeding rate.
7. If seeding rate is different than desired:
• Double check transmission sprocket and
drive range sprocket combinations.
• Check for meter malfunction.
• Check for correct seed meter wheel.
• Check that all three rows are getting seed.
• Refer to “Troubleshooting,” page 48.

Checking Singulated Seeding Rate
The seed charts are basedon cleanedand sized seed.
Extreme seed size variations, foreign material and tire
pressure will affect the seeding rate. Check the seed
population rate as described below.
1. Adjust the planting depth to a shallow setting.
2. Plant at the desired planting speed for a short dis-
tance.
3. Using table, determine how many rows need to be
counted.
4. Measure a distance, according to the table, for the
row spacing in the planted area.
5. Count the number of seeds, in the appropriate
number of rows, over the distance measured.
6. Multiply the number of seeds counted by 200 if
measuring for 1/200 acre or by 1,000 if measuring
for 1/1,000 acre. This is the plant population in
seeds per acre.
Example 1:
If you have a 10” row spacing drill, three rows must be
counted. Measure 17’ 5” and count the number of
seeds in three rows. If the number is, for example, 180,
multiply 180 by 1,000.
180 x 1,000 = 180,000 seeds per acre.
Example 2:
If you have a Twin Row 30” spacing drill, according to the
chart, both rows of the twin row must be counted. Measure 87’ 1” and count the number of seeds in the parallel
row. If the number is, 170, multiply 170 by 200.
170 x 200 = 34,000 seeds per acre.
7. If the planting population is significantly different
than desired, make the following checks:
• Double check the transmission and range sprocket
combinations. Refer to the seed population chart for
the seed being planted.
• Check the air pressure in the gauge wheel tires. Refer to “Tire Inflation Chart” on page 107.
• Refer to “Troubleshooting,” page 48.
Seed Rate Charts
Seed rate charts begin on page 75. The charts give
transmission sprocket combinations and drive range
sprocket combinations for each row spacing, to achieve
the population or pounds per acre desired. The charts
also give seed spacing for singulated seed and maximum planting speed for both singulated and volumetric
seeds.
Each seed chart has a corresponding page showing the
different drive ranges for that seed and a transmission

inspection, you can avoid costly maintenance,
downtime and repair.
Maintenance and Lubrication
53
Always turn off and remove the tractor key before
making any adjustments or performing any
maintenance.
You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed
under the falling implement. Always have transport
locks in place and frame sufficiently blocked up when
working on implement.
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to penetrate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines
and fittings before applying pressure. Fluid escaping
from a very small hole can be almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts, and wear heavy
gloves to check for suspected leaks. If injured, seek
medical assistance from a doctor that is familiar with
this type of injury. Foreign fluids in the tissue must be
surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene
will result.

Figure 54
The seed meter drive has a spring-loaded idler
which requires no adjusting. However, chain
stretch may make it necessary to shorten the
chain.
For best chain tension the recommended vertical
distance between chain idlers should be not less
than 1/4 inch and not more than 1/2 inch. This
measurement should be taken with opener arms
horizontal.
Refer to Figure 56
NOTE: The front idler should be below the rear
idler. Be sure chain is installed with the chain
connector link retainer towards the centerline
of the opener and the clip opening (split end)
faces the opposite way of the chain travel.
