Using Half-Speed Drive Attachment (If Equipped)
IMPORTANT:
The 35-tooth gear MUST BE installed on the feed shaft as shown. See ATTACHING HALF-SPEED DRIVE in Attachments section.
IMPORTANT:
Doubling the seed index setting does not double the seeding rate.
A 35-tooth gear and 13-tooth gear is available to replace 28 and 20-tooth gears in the end panel. The 35-tooth and 13-tooth gears will produce feed rates one-half the values on the fluted feed charts in this section. Double the desired seeding rate before selecting seed index setting from chart.
Example: To meter 67 kg/ha (60 lb/acre) with the HALF SPEED drive, select (from the chart) the Seed Index Setting for 134 kg (120 lb) 67 kg x 2 = 134 kg (60 lb x 2 = 120 lb).
