LEVEL PLANTER
Lateral adjustment is maintained by tire pressure. Check tires
are inflated to specification.
Front and rear level adjustment is maintained by hitch clevis
position unless tractor drawbar is adjustable for height. Planter
frame and row unit parallel arms must be level for proper
planter and row unit operation. Bottom of toolbar should be 20"
to 22" from planting surface.
1. Lower planter to planting position and check planter is level
front to rear. Go to step 2 if hitch is too high or low.
NOTE: DO NOT install safety chain using clevis hardware. Move safety chain location if necessary.
2. Remove clevis hitch hex head cap screw and lock nut using a torque wrench. Replace if off-torque is below 75 ft-lb
(101.6 N-m) or there is corrosion or damage.
NOTE: Clevis must be free to move on hitch. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN hardware.
Level 20" - 22" from ground
Level planter toolbars
3. Align clevis to hitch holes at new location and install hex head cap screw and lock nut. Tighten lock nut until
threads are fully engaged and hex head cap screw and lock nut are firmly against hitch bracket.
NOTE: On planters with push row units and no till coulters, uplift from down force springs or air springs in
pneumatic down pressure system may cause wings to rise slightly in planting position. Problem may be
compounded if static pressure is trapped in planter’s hydraulic lift system which can cause wing cylinders
to extend slightly. Operating tractor’s hydraulic system in float position or moving tractor’s hydraulic lever to
float position briefly to relieve pressure will help maintain proper toolbar height.

wheels are set in one of the two lower sets of holes. Make a field check when planter is fully loaded with seed,
granular chemicals, fertilizer, etc. to be sure wings are level with center frame. If wings are not level with center frame,
drive wheels and/or transport wheels can be raised or lowered in wheel arms to increase or decrease planter toolbar
height. Raise hitch to ensure level operation.
Component interference can damage
