Seed/ Single shoot tube:
Your seed or seed/fert. boot may now be
bolted to the back of the bracket with two 1”

desired.
2. Ensure that bolt is firmly held down
into bolt-head recess, and that the point is
pushed well onto the tine foot before
tightening, to avoid it coming loose in
service.
Single / double shoot bracket:
(no residue deflectors)
Holding the bracket (Part no. PCT-SBB-2)
with it’s front lip around the shank and the
chamfered corner adjacent to the tine foot,
pass the 3/8” bolts (with spring washers
fitted) through the tine leg from front and
secure with nyloc nut provided.
Residue deflectors:
(Part no. PCT-TT-3)
1.The threaded block fits into the back of
the deflector plate and is held in place in
front of the tine, by the two 3/8” bolts
(and spring washers), which in this case
are pushed through the tine from the back
and threaded into the block.
2.Ensure that the residue deflector is fully
down on the head of the point to reduce
wear and presents a smooth, continous
trash-flow surface.
3.Check your assembly-the residue
deflector must be flush against the seed
tube mounting bracket, in front of the
tine.
Double shoot conversion:
You may convert to double shoot use by
adding two clips (Part no. PCT-FT-HC) to
two holes in the body of the single shoot
bracket which will hold Barflo or other
dual shoot delivery hose at various depths
for fertiliser placement.
Dual Shoot with PCT-FT-235 steel
fertiliser boot:
This boot bolts directly behind the tine shank,
with the bolts being fed through from the
front of the tine. Seed boots are secured to it
through a mounting plate welded behind the
steel tube.
A separate, new residue deflector
(# PCT-TT4) can be fitted, which features two
clamps above and below the mounting area.
Mudshield:
This option (PCT Mud-1) is fitted to the
point mounting bolt to eliminate blockage
of fertiliser delivery tubes especially in
accretive soils.
Primary Coil Tines represent the most
efficient way to upgrade existing conventional
implements to direct drill/no-till capacity!
