High-Low Drive Range (Twin Row Machines Only)

Variable Rate Drive Machines Only: Variable rate drive sprocket may need to be switched from high to low range depending on seed population and seed disk selection. See table below.

Variable Rate Drive Population Rates at 5 MPH Ground Speed

Low Range = Large Diameter Sprocket

High Range = Small Diameter Sprocket

Low Range and High Range sprockets generate population rates that overlap for a given ground speed.

If ground speed is 5 mph or slower and target population is within the low range rates shown in chart, use low range sprocket to avoid low motor speed warning.
