Converting your Planter for No-Till Operation: Seed Openers (Case IH)

Seed Openers
To help create a narrow profile for easier insertion into the soil, planters with evenly matched seed opener discs (e.g., John Deere, Kinze, White) should be pinched together along the periphery of the blades at the soil entry point Close enough to firmly hold a business card between the discs.
Planters with staggered leading and trailing discs should have discs only slightly separated, perhaps 0.06 inches, maintaining a narrow space between edges of the lead and trailing discs but allowing the trailing disc to run in the furrow cut by the leading disc.

Hint: When you put the disk blade on, it's a lot easier to lay on the ground and look in between the two blades so you can see the hole for the bolt. No fumbling around and having the washers fall off the bolt.
