2. Open seed gates (C) to clean-out position.

3. Start at master feed cup (first feed cup on each side of shifter lever) and loosen cap screws holding feed cup to box bottom.

4. Move feed cup until end of feed roll (B) is flush with inside surface of seed retainer ring (A) on lower radius of seed reservoir. Reset all feed cups in same manner, beginning with master feeds and working in both directions. Tighten cap screws on each feed cup as soon as setting is complete.

5. Check adjustment by moving feed shaft shifter through full index setting range; then move lever past notch "0" and return to "0". Check to make sure all feed rolls are flush at lower radius of feed cup.

6. Close seed gates to desired setting, making sure all gates are in identical position.
