The rate of fertilizer is determined by the type of augers (low-rate, regular-rate or high-rate) installed in the hoppers and the combination of driver and driven sprockets (A) and (B).

To change the sprocket combinations, remove retaining hook (C) from storage position.

Pull down on chain tightener (A) and attach with retaining hook.

Remove chain (B) from driver and driven sprockets.

Remove rubber sprocket spacers (C).

Slide desired driver and driven sprockets into alignment with chain tightener and replace chain.

Replace rubber sprocket spacers as required.

IMPORTANT: Be certain sprockets are aligned properly with chain tightener and attached with rubber spacers. Check to be sure chain runs freely on selected sprockets; improper alignment can cause drive failures.

Because the dry fertilizer attachment meters volume and not weight, and because of the differences between the many brands, analysis of fertilizer, temperature and humidity, the weight metered out can vary as much as 100 per cent from the weight calculated in the fertilizer rate chart.
