Chart is for planters equipped with contact drive. See “Tire Pressure” for recommended tire pressures.
Chart calculated with a bulk density of 65 pounds per cubic foot.
NOTE: Fertilizer application rates can vary from tweights calculated in chart. Make field checks to be sure
you are applying fertilizer at desired rate.
NOTE: Optional two-speed point row clutch is located ahead of dry fertilizer drive. Activating two-speed
point row clutch reduced rate switch will cause same percent of reduction in dry fertilizer application rates.
To check exact number of pounds your fertilizer attachment actually delivers on a 30" row spacing, remove one
spout from one fertilizer hopper and attach a container under opening. Engage fertilizer attachment and drive
forward for 174'. Weigh amount of fertilizer caught in container and multiply that by 100. Result is pounds of
fertilizer per acre when planting in 30" rows. To convert delivery rate for wider rows:
36" multiply by 0.83 38" multiply by 0.79
