ABSTRACT:
A towed implement, such as a planter is provided with a folding platform allowing easy access to upper regions of the implement. The platform may be provided in addition to a transverse platform or other upper walkway, such as for access to seed tanks in planters. The folding platform may be deployed, along with handrails and a ladder for accessing the platform for servicing the implement. When not in use, the folding platform may be collapsed or folded, and other ancillary structures, such as the ladder may be moved to stowed positions.
