Universal Mount

  • The Universal Bracket fits Deere 7000s thru XP (& Max-Emerge 5 [without BrushBelt] if brkt legs cut & hole drilled in shank, or if converted to XP guards), Kinze 2000s, White 6000s – 9000s, & some Kinze 3000s (non-EdgeVac, prior to 2013). (Kinze EdgeVac & all 2013 & newer models [including 4900] need Scraper-Mount bracket instead.) (ME5 with BrushBelt needs Quick Attach Keeton.) Note: We recommend Quick Attach Keetons for all planter models that they fit — they’re much more robust and trouble-free as compared to the Universals.  Universal Brackets now pre-cut by Exapta for full Mojo compatibility & fast install. No liquid capability (='Dry' tail).
