The Checker, a new innovation from Yetter Manufacturing Company, offers producers a straightforward method to make precise and accurate row-unit adjustments before the first day of planting. The 1200 Series Checker is a one-of-a-kind, row-unit and planter leveling system designed to save producers spring planting delays and help eliminate the possibility of costly mistakes.
The Checker setup includes a row-unit adjuster that is placed under the row unit. The all-steel adjuster provides a platform on which to make adjustments to each row unit and its attachments.
The second component of the system is a bevel box—a digital protractor that senses whether the surface it is resting on is level at 180 degrees. Non-level readings are indicated by a plus or minus symbol followed by the degree of adjustment necessary to reach level.
