Application depth too shallow Check/adjust tractor hitch (page 43), lift-assist spacers
(page 43) and gauge wheel height (page 91).
Coulters set too deep; lifting tines Reduce coulter depth to tine depth (page 86).
Insufficient sealing Adjust sealers (page 87). Test running dry. Try multiple
settings on different rows at the same time if the adjustment
needed is not obvious.
Check applicator front-to-back level.
Application rate too high for soil or
weather conditions

If tines are plugging frequently, check: coulter setup,
application depth, tine wear. Field conditions and weather
may also be unsuitable at the moment.
