NOTE: Tractor return line connection is an example. See
your tractor dealer for specific line location.
NOTE: Tractor return line must hook up to a 0 pressure
return that dumps straight into reservoir.
IMPORTANT: Wipe off hose ends and clean tractor
couplers
to
remove
connections.
NOTE: Tractor remote valve flow rate must be set to 9.5
to 10.0 GPM, consult your Tractor's Operator

Adjusting tractor remote valve flow preferred method
using a flow rater. Adjust the tractor remote valve flow to a
setting of 9.5 to 10.0 GPM.
Adjusting tractor remote valve flow using alternate
method. Adjust planter blower flow control valve fully open
(counter clockwise) and set tractor flow control to the
minimum setting. Engage valve and increase remote
valve flow to get 3 to 4 inches of water on both air gauges.
Set seed monitor to maximum desired population, and
operate drive using the continuous test at the maximum
desired planting speed. Increase tractor flow rate to again
get 3 to 4 inches of water on both air gauges. Use planter
flow control valve to adjust air pressure.
NOTE: It is important that the tractor has enough
hydraulic capacity to maintain air pressure in the
seed meter while raising and lowering the
planter. If the seed drops out of the disc there will
be an unplanted area when operation resumes.
