ABSTRACT:
An adjustment mechanism for an agricultural row unit accessory, such as residue wheels for a planter row unit, includes an assembly for mounting the residue wheels in front of a leading coulter on the row unit. A cam, mounted to the residue wheel assembly for quick and reliable angular adjustment, engages a support arm for the coulter wheel. By rotating the cam, the operating height of the residue wheels is quickly and easily adjusted, while leaving the residue wheels free to rise if they encounter an obstruction.
