1.4.4 Tire safety
Examine tires for cuts, bulges, and correct
pressure. Replace worn or damaged tires. When
tire service is needed, have a qualified tire
mechanic service the tire. Tire changing can be
very hazardous and must be done by qualified tire
mechanic using proper tools and equipment.
Tire explosion and/or serious injury can result from
over inflation. Do not exceed the tire inflation
pressures.
Do not inflate a tire that is seriously under inflated
or has been run flat. Have the tire examined by
qualified tire mechanic.
Do not weld on the rim when a tire is installed.
Welding will make an air/gas mixture that can
cause an explosion and burn with high
temperatures. This hazard applies to all tires,
inflated or deflated. Removing air or breaking the
bead is not enough. The tire must be completely
removed from the rim prior to welding.
When preparing a calcium chloride solution for fluid
ballast the tractor tires, never pour water onto the
calcium chloride. A chlorine gas can be generated
which is poisonous and explosive. This can be
avoided by slowly adding calcium chloride flakes to
water and stirring until they are dissolved.
When seating tire beads onto rims, never exceed
35 psi (2.4 bar ) or the maximum inflation pressure
specified on the tire. Inflation beyond this
maximum pressure may break the bead, or even
the rim, with explosive force.

3.7.1 Drill to tractor hydraulic couplers
The couplers connecting the blower pressure and the return lines from the drill to the tractor are (1/2 inch)
#10 ISO 5675 (Pioneer) tip couplers.
A (3/8 inch) #8 ISO 16028 (flat-face) coupler tip on the drill connects the case drain line to the tractor. The
case drain line must be connected or the blower motor will be damaged. If a case drain return port is not
available on your tractor, contact your dealer.
A (3/4 inch) #12 ISO 7241-1 Series A low-pressure return tip is included with all implements. The low-
pressure return tip is also available through Service Parts.
If your tractor has a low-pressure port available, the low-pressure return tip can be used on the 3/4 inch
blower return line. Using the low-pressure return tip can remove the pressure drop caused by the 1/2 inch
Pioneer tip and the hydraulic valve of the tractor on the return side. The low-pressure return tip can also be
used on the case drain line, if the 3/8 inch flat face port is not available.
Do not install a tee fitting connecting the blower return line and the blower case drain lines together. The
blower case line must always be connected to a direct return to the hydraulic reservoir or blower motor
failure will result.
The hydraulic line with the label pressure must be used to operate the blower. A check valve is installed in
the blower circuit to protect the motor from the too much pressure in the return line and prevents cavitation
during shutdown.
The couplers connecting the downpressure, wing fold, depth control circuits and hydraulic jack from the
drill to the tractor are (1/2 inch) #10 ISO 5675 (Pioneer) tip couplers.
3.7.2 Bleed the air from the hydraulic lift system

3.8 Frame height cylinder phasing
When the support cylinders extend to the same length at the same time the support cylinders are in
phase. If the cylinders do not extend to the same length at the same time then the cylinders must be put
in phase.
Frame height cylinders that are out of phase will cause the machine to not be level with the ground when
lifting or lowering the machine. A frame that is not level to the ground will cause different seed depth
between each toolbar.
3.8.1 Put the frame height cylinders in phase
Before starting the procedure
To put the frame height cylinders in phase the machine must be connected to the correct size of tractor
to operate the machine.
Put the frame height cylinders in phase to make sure the cylinders are moving to the same length at the
same time.
Procedure

The blower system for the machine generates air pressure/flow to carry the seed or other input products
through the system to the implement. A hydraulic motor drives the blower system. Two 3/4 inch hydraulic
lines supply oil to the blower.
The only part on the blower that can be serviced is the shaft seal. The shaft seal can be replaced if the
motor leaks at the shaft. Do not disassemble the motor to replace the shaft seal. The shaft seal is fastened
by a snap ring and can be removed with a seal pick.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure that the case drain line on the blower motor is not connected to pressure. Damage to the shaft
seal or motor will result.
IMPORTANT:
Do not under any circumstances disassemble the motor. The motor is very difficult to correctly assemble
and motor destruction will result. If a motor failure occurs, get a replacement motor from the dealer.
3.9.1 Blower speed
Operate the blower at as slow a speed as possible to prevent damage to seed. If operated too slowly, line
blockage will occur. Typical blower speeds are between 3000 and 6000 rpm. The drill width, product, rate,
humidity, and other factors can change blower speed.
If a run blockage monitor is not used, make sure all runs are operating after changing blower speeds. To
check the runs:
1. Turn the meter(s) with the blower running
2. Make sure there is product at each ground opener
The number of outlets on the implement will directly change the blower rpm. The more outlets in use, the
higher the pressure required to keep blower rpm. See your dealer for hydraulic adjustments to your tractor,
if necessary.
One method to determine blower RPM is to remove a final run from the seed boot or shoe. Hold the hose
about 5 ft. (1.5 meter) off of the ground pointing straight up. Turn product out of the meter with the blower
running. The product coming from the hose must blow out of the hose approximately 8 inches (203 mm )
into the air. Adjust blower RPM as required.

Raise the drill until the openers are off the ground.
2.
Stop the tractor, stop the engine, apply the park brake, and take the ignition key with you.
3.
Grasp each blade from behind and rotate them independently in the opposite direction of each other.
Result
The blades should glide against each other easily without binding.
4.
If the blades bind or work against each other while rotating, install shims between the opener bar and
the blade to space them apart.
Shims are sometimes required when new blades are installed.
5.
Add the number of shims necessary to maintain the pinch point.
3.17.5.3 Add or remove opener shims
Each opener shim is equal to .8 mm (1/32 in)
Procedure:
Loosen the 3/4 inch bolt (1) (the left side has
left hand threads) that mounts the blade to
the opener bar.
2.
If equipped with soil control devices, remove
the locking arm 3/8 inch bolt (2) and the
locking arm (3) first.
3.
Slowly remove the blade (4) and bolt (1)
together being careful not to drop and lose
any shims (5).
4.
Remove the 3/4 inch bolt (1) and transfer the
shims (5) from one side to the other,
depending on the adjustment required.
5.
Insert the 3/4 inch bolt (1) through the blade bearing and place the shims (5) on the end of the bolt,
against the bearing.
6.
Reattach the blades (4) to the opener bar with the 3/4 inch bolt (1).
7.
Tighten the bolts and recheck the pinch point pressure.
8.
Install the soil control devices, if equipped, and set the angle while tightening the 3/4 inch bolt (1).
9.
Check the pinch point pressure.
10.
If the pinch point pressure is correct, attach the locking arm (3) and the locking arm 3/8 inch bolt (2).

3.18 Toolbar down pressure
A hydraulic cylinder (1) applies toolbar down
pressure on each toolbar (2). The cylinders apply a
constant down pressure through the full range of
movement of the toolbar. An active hydraulic circuit
maintains uniform pressure to each hydraulic
cylinder.
Use the terminal to set the toolbar down pressure.
The toolbar down pressure can be adjusted from
1034 kPa to 17237 kPa (150 psi to 2500 psi). Set
the toolbar down pressure high enough for correct
disc penetration and correct soil compaction. The
toolbar down pressure adjustment will change with
field conditions, seed depth, soil type, and ground
speed.
Operate the tractor hydraulic remote that the
toolbar down pressure is connected to at full output
or fully open. Operating the hydraulic remote at full
output reduces the back pressure on the toolbar
down pressure return lines.
