Leveling the Machine

NOTE: If CCS tanks are empty, it may be necessary to set adjustable downforce systems to zero pressure before lowering machine into planting position and measuring frame height.

Lower machine to planting position with bottom of main frame tube approximately 510 to 560 mm (20 to 22 in.) above the ground. If frame is not 510 to 560 mm (20 to 22 in.) see ADJUSTING FRAME HEIGHT in this section.
