A brief description of signal words that may be used in this manual:
CAUTION: Used as a general reminder of good safety practices or to direct attention to unsafe
practices.
WARNING: Denotes a specific potential hazard.
DANGER: Denotes the most serious specific potential hazard.
You can make your farm a safer place to live and work if you observe the safety precautions
given. Study these precautions carefully and insist that those working with you and for you follow
them.
Finally, remember this: an accident is usually caused by someone’s carelessness, neglect or
oversight.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Never clean, lubricate or adjust a machine that is in motion. Always lower or block the implement
before performing service.
If the machine must be serviced in the raised position, jack or block it up to prevent it from
accidentally falling and injuring someone.
Do not allow riders on the tractor or implement.
Use speeds and caution dictated by the terrain being traversed. Do not operate on any slope
steep enough to cause tipping or loss of control.
Be sure all personnel are clear of the immediate area before operating.
Read and understand the operator’s manual and require all other persons who will operate the
equipment to do the same.
Be familiar with all tractors and implement controls and be prepared to stop engine and
implements quickly in an emergency.
CAUTION
Consult your implement and tractor operator’s manual for correct and safe operating practices.
Beware of towed implement width and allow safe clearance.
FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

INTRODUCTION
The 2940-010 Unit Mounted Conservation Coulter and Residue Manager have been designed as
a ‘universal’ fitment for several makes of planter units.
The 2940-191 assembly of the 2940-010 has a mounting bracket that will correctly attach to most
planters including John Deere, Kinze, and Agco White. Several different styles of blades are
available for every tillage practice, every soil type, and every residue condition, so you can
choose the one that’s right for you.

BOLT TORQUE
Mounting bolts and hardware
Before operating the Titan Residue Manager for the first time, check to be sure that all
hardware is tight. Check all hardware again after approximately 50 hours of operation and at the
beginning of each planting season.
All hardware used on the Titan Residue Manager is Grade 5 unless otherwise noted. Grade 5
cap screws are marked with three radial lines on the head. If hardware must be replaced, be
sure to replace it with hardware of equal size, strength and thread type. Refer to the torque
values chart when tightening hardware.
The chart below is a guide for proper torque. Use it unless a specified
torque is called out elsewhere in the manual.
Torque is the force you apply to the wrench handle or the cheater bar,
times the length of the handle or bar. Use a torque wrench whenever
possible.
The following table shows torque in ft. lbs. for coarse thread hardware.
Important: Over tightening hardware can cause as much damage as when under
tightening. Tightening hardware beyond the recommended range can reduce its
shock load capacity.
Lubricate all bearings and moving parts as assembled and make certain that they work freely.
WARNING: Never work around the toolbar/implement while in a raised position without
using safety lockups.
CAUTION: The Residue manager attachments are very heavy. Pay extra attention to
lifting techniques while handling and or maneuvering the opener during assembly.
Failure to do so may lead to personal injury.
