The compressor filter is not sufficient to operate in the dirty field conditions. The compressor also has a 5210-air-compressor connection limited duty cycle. Maximum run time for the Figure 4-5: Air Compressor Connection compressor is 20 minutes on followed by a 20 minute off cool down period (50% duty cycle) before additional operation.
This will provide maximum down pressure for the row units. A system relief valve 5210-air-system pressure is installed at the front of the hitch to protect the Figure 4-6: Air System Pressure system from excessive pressure.

Before transporting make sure both lift cylinders and raise and lower the unit from transport to planting hitch cylinders are fully extended for maximum position.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Battery Operated Acre Counter Operation The battery operated acre counter operates in one of two modes. In sleep mode, the display is blank, and the counter is accumulating acres. Sleep mode will be 0000.0 entered if a button is not pressed for 20 seconds. In entry mode, the display is on, and the operator can enter values.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE Dry Fertilizer Combination Box 1. If the Grain Drill is equipped with the dry fertilizer option, it will have a combination seed/fertilizer box. FRONT OF SEED BOX The seed/fertilizer box is split for approximately 60% (2 bu/ft) seed and 40% (1.25 bu/ft) fertilizer. The box may be used for applying both seed and fertilizer, or converted to use both compartments entirely for seed.
