MOUNTING BOLTS AND HARDWARE
Before operating planter for the first time, check all hardware is tight. Check all hardware again after first 50 hours of
operation and beginning of each planting season.
All hardware used on the Kinze planter is Grade 5 (high strength) unless otherwise noted. Grade 5 cap screws are
marked with three radial lines on the head. Hardware must be replaced with equal size, strength, and thread type.
WARNING
Loose transport wheel lug nuts can result in wheel separation from
planter and can result in death, serious injury, and damage to property
and equipment. Check transport wheel lug nut torque before operating
planter for the first time and periodically thereafter.
NOTICE
Over-tightening hardware can reduce its shock load capacity and cause
equipment failure.
