Agricultural implement tool frame actuating system

An agricultural implement, comprising:

• a tool bar;
• a tool frame coupled to the tool bar;
• a plurality of row units coupled to the tool frame;
• and
• a frame actuator extending between the tool bar and the tool frame, wherein the frame actuator is configured to transition the tool frame between a lowered position that places each row unit in contact with soil and a transport position that raises each row unit above the soil, the frame actuator is configured to transfer weight from the tool bar to the tool frame while the tool frame is in the lowered position, and the weight transferred from the tool bar to the tool frame by the frame actuator is sufficient to maintain contact between each row unit and the soil without an additional biasing assembly extending between the tool bar and the tool frame;
• wherein each row unit comprises a ground engaging tool and a tool actuating cylinder configured to transition the ground engaging tool between a ground-engaged working position and a ground-disengaged non-working position, while the tool frame is in the lowered position.
