SETTING UP
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Air Drill.
This manual has been prepared to assure the proper setup,
operation and trouble-free service.
After reading this manual, keep it in the carrier provided on the
implement for quick and easy reference should any question
arise concerning operation or service.
Your AIR SEEDER is designed to give maximum service life,
but a routine lubrication and maintenance schedule must be
followed as shown on the lubrication chart (see page 20)
