Wheel Tread And Row Spacing

With hydraulic tread adjust

See pages 32 for information about hydraulic tread adjust operation.

Without hydraulic tread adjust

Knowing the row spacing of the field one intends to spray, follow the steps below to properly obtain the desired tread setting.

1. To adjust the tread width in or out, park the sprayer on level ground and shut off the engine.

2. Loosen the leg mounting bolts on both the front and rear legs on one side of the sprayer only.

Loosen leg mounting bolts only enough to allow for free movement of leg on mainframe. DO NOT remove bolts under any condition.

3. Loosen the rear lock nut on t he leg brace (fig. 4.1). This will allow one leg to move further than the other without binding while adjusting the tread setting.

4. Lubricate the slide path th e leg mount will travel along mainframe (fig. 4.2).
