Abstract
A seed-planting implement includes a fluid-driven actuator coupled between a row unit frame and a row cleaner arm such that the actuator is configured to adjust a force being applied to the arm. The actuator, in turn, includes a cylinder and a piston moveable relative to the cylinder, with the cylinder and the piston collectively defining a lift chamber and a down chamber within the actuator. A first valve or pressure regulator is configured to control the flow of fluid into the lift chamber such that the fluid within the lift chamber is maintained at a first non-zero pressure value during a seed-planting operation. A computing system is configured to determine a second pressure value to which the down chamber is to be pressurized and control the operation of a second valve such that the fluid within the down chamber is pressurized to the second value during the seed-planting operation.
