4.3.1 Tires:
Check the tires for normal and/or abnormal tire
wear. Replace tires that are damaged or worn
beyond normal tread life.
Replace the tires with Meridian® part number
14209 or an equivalent tire:
ST205/75 R14

4.3.2 Wheel Bearings:
Each axle is equipped with a grease zerk under
the center dust cap of the wheel. Add grease
sparingly to the wheel bearings, using only wheel
bearing grease. The wheel bearings should be
repacked annually. Check for excessive end
play and tighten, if necessary.
IMPORTANT:
Over greasing wheel bearings can cause them
to overheat, resulting in damage and/or failure.
4.3.3 Tube Fold-Over Hinge:
Add grease to the pivot shaft hinge until it is
forced out of the joints annually or as needed.

4.3 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
4.3.4 Welding Repairs:
Repair welding must be done with care and with
procedures that may be beyond the capabilities
of the ordinary welder.
Before performing any type of welding repair to
the seed tender, contact Meridian® for approval.
IMPORTANT:
Anyone performing a welding repair should
be certified in accordance to the American
Welding Society (AWS) standards.
4.3.5 Battery:
BATTERY HAZARD
• Keep all sparks and flames away from
batteries, as the gas given off by electrolyte
is explosive.
• Avoid contact with battery electrolyte. Wash
off any spilled electrolyte immediately to
avoid severe chemical burns.
• Wear safety glasses when working near
batteries.
• Do not tip batteries more than 45 degrees, to
avoid electrolyte loss.
• To avoid injury from spark or short circuit,
disconnect the battery ground cable before
servicing any part of the electrical system.
Never short circuit battery. It may explode.
• Protect battery terminals, battery charger
terminals, and cables against accidental
contact which can cause sparks, explosions,
or component damage.
• Never attempt to jump start a frozen battery.
Inspect the battery at least once every six
months and before using the seed tender at
the beginning of the season. Always follow the
safety instructions when servicing a battery.
