TITAN F.P.M. RESIDUE MANAGER
OPERATION / USE GUIDE
IMPORTANT: The 2967-035 Residue Manager Will Limit the full “up-travel” of the planter row
unit. Please check the amount of travel that the planter row unit has before going to the field to plant.
NOTE: The recommended height of a level planter toolbar frame is 18”-22”. Always visually check
seed spacing and depth-calibrate your equipment if necessary.
Solution to “UP” travel issue. Trim upper corners of face plate bracket.
If there is insufficient clearance between the residue manager wheels and the fertilizer coulter opener,
then a fertilizer extension bar is required to move the fertilizer coulter forward to have sufficient
clearance.

OPERATION
CAUTION: Where rocks are present the residue manager should be set in the “float”
position, not locked down.
STEP 1. Adjust the residue manager to move crop residue aside and not move any soil.
Adjustments to the residue manager may have to be made when changing field conditions
and type and amount of residue. Use the handle for leverage when changing depth settings.
“FLOAT SETTINGS”
To raise the wheels, lift the 2967-282 and move the slide toward the rear.
To lower the wheels move the slide toward the front.
“RIGID SETTING”
To raise the wheels, lift the 2967-282 Combo Arm to the desired position and insert the pin.
To lower the wheels, lower the combo arm to the desired position and insert the pin.
ROW CLEANER DO’S AND DON’TS
1. DO NOT move soil; Residue Managers are designed to move crop
residue only.
2. DO NOT operate planter at slow speeds, ground speed affects how
aggressive the spoke wheels are; operate at sufficient speed (4-6 mph)
to maintain good residue flow.
3. DO NOT expect 100% of crop residue to be cleared, it is not necessary
and would necessitate engaging the soil. The width of path cleared
depends on ground conditions, depth setting and ground speed.
4. DO expect to see wheels occasionally quit turning, indicates ideal
(shallow) setting which is not moving soil.
5. DO adjust toolbar frame height 20”-22” and drawbar correctly. Very
important to ensure planter openerwill follow ground contours
properly.
IMPORTANT: For proper operation, the planter frame must operate level (for, aft and side to side)
and at the correct height, typically 20”-22”.

MAINTENANCE
Regularly inspect the residue manager for loose or worn bolts. Repair and replace as
needed.
Storing the Equipment
Store the machine in an area away from human activity
Store machine in RAISED position.
Install service locks on all wheel cylinders.
At the end of the season, the machine should be thoroughly inspected and prepared
for storage. Repair or replace any worn or damaged components to prevent down
time at the start of the next season. Store machine under cover with all parts in
operating condition.
Clean machine thoroughly to remove all dirt, debris and crop residue, which
would hold moisture and cause rusting.
Inspect machine for worn or broken parts. See your Yetter Farm Equipment
dealer during the off-season so that parts or service can be acquired when
machine is not needed in the field.
Lubricate bearings as outlined in the Lubrication section
Paint all parts which are chipped or worn and require repainting.
Store machine in a clean, dry place with the planting unit out of the sun.
If the machine cannot be stored inside, cover with a waterproof tarpaulin and
tie securely in place.
Do not allow children to play on or around the machine
