Abstract

A debris clearing apparatus for use with a farm implement tool bar with at least one trailing planter row unit, includes a frame extension connectable to the row unit and having a forward projecting mounting point relative to a direction of travel, the mounting point including first and second pivot mounts defining transverse pivot points. A parallelogram linkage has two arms, each arm having a first pivot connection for attachment to one of the first and second mounts and an opposite second pivot connection. A debris clearing module is attachable to the opposite second pivot connections behind the mounting point in the direction of travel, the module having a foot structure for supporting at least one disk mount having at least one clearing disk. The parallelogram linkage enables the debris-clearing module to generally float behind the mounting point as the implement is pulled in the direction of travel.
