Purge Hydraulic Lift System
The Drawbar Seeder is equipped with a Hydraulic Lift
System to raise and lower the unit in the field.
Escaping hydraulic fluid can cause serious
personnel injury. Relieve system pressure before
repairing, adjusting, or disconnecting. Wear
proper hand and eye protection when searching
for leaks. Use cardboard instead of hands (See
Figure 3-7.) Keep all components (cylinders,
hoses, fittings, etc.) in good repair.

The Hydraulic System is not filled with oil and should be
purged of air before transporting and field operations.
