Abstract: A row unit for a work vehicle includes a row unit frame, a gauge wheel, and a gauge wheel coupling assembly that attaches the gauge wheel to the row unit frame at a lateral position with respect to the row unit frame. The gauge wheel coupling assembly supports the gauge wheel for lateral movement to change the lateral position of the gauge wheel. The gauge wheel coupling assembly includes a coarse adjust coupling and a fine adjust coupling. The coarse adjust coupling is configured for selectively adjusting, at a first increment, the lateral position of the gauge wheel. The fine adjust coupling is configured for selectively adjusting, at a second increment, the lateral position of the gauge wheel. The first increment is larger than the second increment.
Abstract: A furrow opener apparatus attachable to an implement has a trailing arm with a packer wheel at the rear end, and a furrow opener attached forward of the packer wheel. An actuator moves the trailing arm between a lowered operating position and a raised transport position. A latch mechanism engages the implement frame and the trailing arm when the actuator is operated to move the trailing arm to the transport position, preventing the trailing arm from moving downward. A release mechanism moves the latch mechanism to an unlatched position when the actuator is operated to move the trailing arm from the raised transport position to the lowered operating position, allowing the trailing arm to move down from the transport position.
