USC Surge Hopper Operator's Manual page 2

Introduction
Thank you for choosing USC LLC for your equipment needs. We appreciate your
business and will work diligently to ensure that you are satisfied with your choice.
The purpose of this manual is to provide you with the basic information needed to
operate and maintain the Weigh Hopper and Surge Hopper. It does not hold USC LLC
liable for any accidents or injuries that may occur.
The technical information provided in this document is based on extensive testing
under controlled conditions at the USC research and development facility.
This information is given without guarantee as the conditions of operation and storage
of the equipment are beyond our control. Variables such as temperature, humidity,
viscosity of chemical products and changes in seed size or variety may all effect
the accuracy of application and seed coverage. Periodically check the equipment
calibration while treating and make adjustments as required. This will insure the
optimum seed coverage.
As soon as the equipment is received, it should be carefully inspected to make certain
that it has sustained no damage during shipment and that all items listed on the
packing list are accounted for. If there is any damage or shortages, the purchaser
must immediately notify USC LLC. Ownership passes to purchaser when the unit
leaves the USC LLC. premises. The purchaser is responsible for unloading and
mounting all components of the equipment.
Document the serial number of the machine for future reference. The serialization
label is located on the angle bracket welded to the hopper cone
