Gauge Wheel Scrapers
When planting in moist or sticky soils, these scrapers are
useful in preventing build-up that might otherwise result
in shallow planting.
Order one part per wheel (2 per opener).
The scrapers mount on the bottom rear of the depth
wheel arm, using existing hardware. The slot in the
scraper is long enough to clear the lower grease zerk,
and allow adjustment as wheel and scraper wear.
For operations, see:
“Adjusting Gauge Wheel Scrapers” on page 54.
