Adjusting Gauge Wheel and Seeding Depth

Raising gauge wheel lowers seed depth for deeper planting; lowering gauge wheel raises seed depth for shallow planting.

NOTE: Heavy field residue or worn disk openers may require use of a deeper setting to achieve desired seed placement.

Seed depth adjustment range is approximately 13 mm to 90 mm (0.5 in. to 3.5 in.) from deep (A) to shallow (B) settings. Generally, the second slot from the bottom end of adjustment range (25 mm [1 in.] seed depth) is used as a starting point. Each adjustment slot changes seed depth in 6.35 mm (0.25 in.) increments.

To Adjust:

Pull handle (C) up, turn 45 degrees and position in desired slot.

A-Deep
B-Shallow
C-Handle
