  • Page 6: Controls

    Controls Cutter Blades ON / OFF Seed Flow ON / OFF Pistol Grip Transmission Control Note: Seed Flow – the seed flow is turned on/off with the seed flow control. The unit is designed so seed flow slows or almost stops completely when the front wheels are off the ground while making turns.
  • Page 7  Pistol Grip Control- the unit is operated (forward and backward) using a pistol grip control, like those found on a commercial walk behind mower. Disengage the lever, with your thumb, from the “park” position and release slowly to move forward (Note: 9-14 HP units have two forward cruising speeds).
  • Page 8: Controls

     Seed Meter Gauge – The “Seed Meter Gauge” is used to adjust the seed flow to a set flow rate. It is calibrated so that you receive the correct amount of seed at any cruising speed. (i.e. – the seed flow is proportional to the ground speed)See figure 7.
  • Page 9: Operation

    Operation  Before each day of use. o Check engine oil level and air filter. o Check for loose or damaged parts. o Clean dirt and debris from seed gate by turning seed flow setting (seed meter gauge) to #10, then turn the seed flow on.
