Although the machine usually arrives set up, ready to use, it is important to check
certain aspects of the machine before using it. Adjustments are normally necessary in
order to adapt the Command Seeder to work under a given condition.
CAUTION: Stand clear of bands when cutting as they could be under sufficient
tension to cause them to fly loose. Take care in removing bands and wire. They
often have extremely sharp edges and cut very easily.
DANGER: Never trust the tractor hydraulics alone to support the machine. Never
do any repairs or adjustments under the machine unless it is safely blocked.
Check each of the following, carefully, prior to engaging machine:
1. Ensure that the drive chains are well greased in the chain housing on the right side
of the implement (see fig. 11). Drive chains are supplied with an automatic chain
tensioner.
2. Grease all cultipackers supports (see fig. 11).
3. The hopper and seed cups to ensure they are mounted correctly.
4. No wrappings or foreign objects are on the machine.
5. All hardware for tightness, especially the bolts holding the 3 point hitch
6. All safety shields and guards are in their place and tightly attached.
7. No people or animals are in the work area.
8. When working, make sure that the rear cultipacker locking pin has been removed.
9. When working, make sure the Command Seeder has its full weight riding on the
cultipackers (see fig. 4).
Unit may be used on tractors ranging from 25 to 70 HP with a category 1 three point

DANGER: Never attempt to attach the Command Seeder to the tractor or make
