Quick Tips for Planting
Wildlife Foodplots
Always mow or remove unwanted grasses and vegetation
prior to discing or plowing soil.
Discing and plowing will be much easier when done after a
rain or when moisture content of soil is high
Try not to disc or plow your foodplots when soil is hard or
dry.
Hard soil or heavy vegetation cover may require several
passes with PLOTMASTER 600™ to achieve best results.
Best results will be achieved when using the chisel plow on
hard or grassy soils in lieu of the sweep plow or cultivator
points.
If the plow attachments begin to clog up due to unwanted
vegetation, simply remove several plow points and remove
the plow attachment completely.
For a firm seed bed use the cultipacker attachment to plant
small seeds such as chicory, clover, rape or other seeds
which require little or no cover.
Use the drag attachment to plant large seeds such as wheat,
oats, peas, beans, Lab Lab and corn that require more
cover. (1”- 2”)
Put seed (up to 150 lbs) in electric seeder or on top of the
carrying rack for extra weight and improved tillage.
Details About Your Plotmaster 600™...
A. The PLOTMASTER 600™ consists of a sturdy MAIN
FRAME with various components and attachments
that may be added or removed.
Each PLOTMASTER 600™ is equipped for use with a
3-point hitch only. This model uses the 3-point hitch
draft to set depth of tillage and cultivation.
B. The PLOTMASTER 600™ unit is designed to
ALWAYS be used with the 3-point hitch on a large
tractor that has enough weight on the front of the
tractor to counterbalance the 1060 pounds. The draft
on the 3-point lift is used for depth settings of the
harrows and plows. The top link of the 3-point hitch
is used to level the PLOTMASTER 600™ to the
conditions required
(HINT: We have found that in hard soil keeping the
unit level as possible works best for most application.)
You can put more pressure on the disc by shortening
the top link of the 3-pt. hitch. You can put more
pressure on the plows by lengthening the top links. The
top link can also be used to adjust the amount of
pressure on the drag and/or cultipacker.
C. The PLOW ATTACHMENT attaches to the
PLOTMASTER 600™ behind the harrow using two
point hitch pins located on the side of the main
frame. The plow attachment has four holes for
depth adjustments. The two middle adjustments
work best for most applications.
The plow attachment comes with (3) different
types of plow points:
1. Five (5) narrow, reversible CHISEL POINTS
for hard, rough soils.
2. Five (5) medium-sized CULTIVATOR
POINTS for cultivating prepared soils
3. Five (5) 9-inch SWEEP PLOW POINTS for
plowing cultivated soils with little or no
vegetation.
(HINT: If plow points load up with vegetation,
discing and plowing are reduced. The points can be
cleaned simply by raising the unit.)
(HINT: The smaller chisel points work much better
than the larger sweep plows for plowing if vegetation
exists. You can also remove one or more plow
s-tines, leaving the outside and middle s-tine. This
will allow the vegetation to pass through without
clogging up. You can also remove the entire plow
attachment if plow points continue to load up or
collect too much vegetation.)
D. Each of the units comes with an ELECTRIC
SEEDER to distribute and plant seed. The seeder
motor turns the agitator at a constant RPM. The
seed flow is regulated by the opening of the seed
gate and the speed of planting.
E. The SEED FLOW CONTROL attached on the left
side of the unit is used to open and close the seed
gate for dispensing the seed. There are ten (10)
detents or settings on the seed flow control for
distributing different sizes of seed. It is also used
to adjust your application rate for seed distribution.
For proper seed gate adjustment, loosen the nut on
the end of the seed gate handle. Put the seed gate
handle in the “0” position, making certain the seed
gate is fully closed. Retighten.
(NOTE: DO NOT put more than 150 lbs. of seed in the
seeder at one time. The seeder is designed to hold a
maximum of 150 pound of seed.)
(NOTE: The electric seeder was not designed to
distribute lime or fertilizer. DO NOT put lime or
fertilizer in the electric seeder. It will rust the seeder
components and/or cause the seeder to work
improperly)
F. Each unit comes with a DRAG and CULTIPACKER.
The DRAG and CULTIPACKER can be used
independently or in combination.
The DRAG is used to level soil and to cover larger
seed such as wheat, rye, Lab Lab, beans, peas
and oats. It can be used with the grating by
disconnecting the grating from the hangers and
allowing it to be placed between the drag bar and
the ground. It can also be used with the drag bar
only. See the picture below.
The CULTIPACKER and DRAG can be used in
combination by removing the hitch pins with handles
as shown below and allowing the cultipacker to follow
the drag. See illustration below.
The CULTIPACKER can be used only by using the
hitch pins with handles that maintain the cultipacker
In the stowed position to pin the cultipacker hinge
point in a straight position as shown below.
IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE:
Grease the fittings on the cultipacker
and tighten all nuts and bolts
every 6 hours of operation
