Adjusting Vacuum Meter Baffle

Move tab (A).

Lower position (B) is recommended for sugar beets, sorghum, oil sunflower and popcorn.

Upper position (C) is recommended for corn, soybeans, cotton, edible beans, peanuts, sweet corn, and confectionary sunflower.

Seed bridging at the meter inlet can result in long skips when planting. If this condition should occur, adjust baffle to the upper position (C) and add talc lubricant generously.

Overfilling of the meter may occur if planting on hillsides. This may cause seed disk fins to carry seed over the brush into the seed tube and result in high population. If these conditions should occur, adjust baffle to the lower position (B).

NOTE: Overfilling of the vacuum meter caused by extremely rough field conditions CANNOT be eliminated by lowering the baffle.

Increase down force on the row unit and reduce planting speed.
