Acre Meter Kit, 5K275 -
Optional
Not Used with Brillion Elite Mini Monitor
NOTE
The Acre Meter Kit consists of three main parts, the Acre
Meter, the Pick-Up Switch and the Magnet Wheel
Assembly. The Acre Meter Assembly is mounted on the
left side of the Front Seed Box.
IMPORTANT
Alignment of the Pick-Up Switch and the Magnet
Wheel Assembly is critical. Improper alignment will
cause the Acre Meter to record acres erratically or
not at all.
1. Use the Acre Meter Mount as a guide to drill two
13/32" holes into the left Seed Box.
2. Attach the Acre Meter Assembly to the Seed Box with
3/8-16 x 1 Bolts, Lock Washers and Nuts. See
Figure 2-26.
3. Attach Pick-Up Switch Mount to Clutch Bracket with
#10-24 x 3/4 Screws, Lock Washers and Nuts. Do Not
tighten at this time.
4. Attach the Pick-Up Switch to the top of Pick-Up
Switch Mount with #8-32 x 1-1/4 Screws, Flat
Washers, Lock Washers and Nuts. Do Not tighten at
this time.
5. Press the Magnet Wheel Assembly onto the Clutch
Shaft until it is vertically centered with the Pick-Up
Switch. See Figure 2-24.
6. Adjust the Pick-Up Switch and Pick-Up Switch Mount
so the centerline of the Magnet Wheel Assembly and
Pick-Up Switch are horizontally and vertically aligned
with maximum 1/8" between the Magnet Wheel
Assembly and Pick-Up Switch. Tighten all Screws.
See Figure 2-24.
7. Attach the Pick-Up Switch Ground Wire to the small
hole in the Pick-Up Switch Mount with a #6-32 x 1/2
Screw, removing paint under the wire connector to
assure a good electrical ground connection. See
Figure 2-25.
8. Plug the Extension Harness into the Acre Meter Cord.
9. Route the cord from the Acre Meter down the front of
the Seed Box to the Pick-Up Switch and connect the
mating plugs.
10. Securely fasten the cords to the Seed Box and
Transmission with the Adhesive Mounting Plates and
tie wraps to prevent the Cords from becoming
entangled or rubbing moving parts.
11. Program the Acre Meter. See "Settings for Loup
Acre Meters" on Page 3-17.
