Unit Down Force Springs

The unit down force springs transfer weight from the main frame to planting unit to increase opener penetration and help to minimize bounce in rough soil surface conditions.

The springs are non-adjustable with 400 N (90 lbs.) of down force when the parallel arms are in the horizontal position. Two sets per row may be used for 800 N (180 lbs.) of down force.

NOTE: For 70 cm (27.5 in.) planters, springs must be mounted on the inside of parallel arms.
