More extreme conditions can cause greater vibration and
damage to the air seeder.
7. Apply extra care when operating the air seeder on
hillsides. The tractor or air seeder may tip over if:
It strikes a hole, ditch or other irregularity, resulting in
serious injury or death to the operator or those nearby.
Maximum GRADE OF THE ROAD (slope) should no more
than 25% (1:4).
8. DO NOT make sharp turns (over 40°) on both left turns
and right turns. Sharp turns may cause machine tilting,
may damage the ladder or Auger on the machine, and can
cause serious injury.
9. Never allow anyone to ride on air seeder while it is being
operated. The person riding may fall and be seriously or
fatally injured or may be caught by rotating shafts, belts, or
pulleys and be fatally or seriously injured.
10. To avoid personal injury or death, always stay clear of the
folding wings when they are being raised or lowered into
the field position. If the hydraulic system failed, or if the
hydraulic lever was accidentally operated, the wings could
drop, resulting in serious injury or death to you or those
nearby.
11. KEEP CLEAR. Make sure all persons are clear of the area
of air seeder before and during operation.
12. Always relieve the pressure in the hydraulic system when
air seeder and cultivator is not being operated.
13. Tank seal must not leak during seeding or fertilising
operations. Seal leaks can cause product distribution to stop
and start or cease altogether. This kind of erratic distribution
will leave unseeded strips in your field.
14. Never operate air seeder without fan motor case drain hose
hooked up. This hose must be hooked up unrestricted to
tractor hydraulic reservoir. Failure to properly install fan motor
drain hose will result in irreparable damage to the fan motor.
15. Do not use quick couplers to connect fan motor case drain
hose to tractor's hydraulic reservoir. Use 3/8" swivel adapters
only. This line must be unrestricted AT ALL
couplers can be used. If a quick coupler failed or was
disconnected during field operations, fan motor will be
irreparably damaged.
TRANSPORT SAFETY
1. Before transporting air seeder cultivator, read the transport
safety recommendations in the tractor's operator's manual.
2. Always lock the tractor‟s 3-point linkage (lower 2 points) and
air seeder hitch before transporting the air seeder. Serious
damage and injury could result from the cultivator separating
from the tractor.
3. When transporting the air seeder with the wings folded (up),
be sure there is sufficient clearance under all power lines and
other overhead obstructions lower than 3.8m. Serious injury
or death can result from contact with electrical lines when
moving or operating the and air seeder.
