400L Waterproof PVC Cover Part No. TJ400COVER Heavy Duty white PVC covers fitted with eyelets and bungie cord for easy attachment. Please contact your local Stocks Ag dealer for more information. 6.0 Disposal Ensure that any persons handling the machine are aware that the machine may have been used to apply toxic chemicals and so the appropriate personal protection equipment should be worn.
7.0 General Maintenance Ensure the parent machine is stationary and parked on level ground before working on the machine. The machine must be checked regularly by the operator for any damage, loose bolts or electrical connections, vibrations, unusual sounds and to ensure it functions correctly. WARNING! Always ensure the power supply is disconnected before any maintenance work or cleaning of the machine by unplugging the power cable or removing the fuse in the power cable.
8.0 Installation Guide The Turbo Jet can be used for a wide variety of seeding applications in conjunction with a wide variety of parent implements. It is not practical to supply tailored mounting brackets for every implement on the market, and so the final attachment of the Turbo Jet to the implement is the responsibility of the supplying dealer or end user.
8.3 Spreader Plate Set Up The Stocks Ag spreader plate was developed to allow a wider spread pattern while positioning the outlets closer to the ground. For products such as grass seed, oil seed rape and Avadex, a spread width per outlet of 750mm is achievable from as low as 250mm above the ground (250mm to the bottom plate).

23.1 Hydraulic Fan - Safety The hydraulic system on the machine operates under high pressure. (Maximum of 210 bar). Pressurised hydraulic oil is dangerous so connecting/disconnecting the fan must only be undertaken with the tractor engine turned off and the pressure in the hoses released. Before operating the machines hydraulics, always inspect the hoses and fittings to ensure there is no damage or loosened parts.
Page 48
23.3 Hydraulic Fan - Speed Setting The hydraulic fan generates a greater volume of air flow at higher speeds than the 12v electric fans, allowing higher volumes of material to be conveyed over wider working widths. The fan is driven by a hydraulic motor, which is powered by the tractor hydraulic system. The hydraulic motor has a overrun protection built in.
Page 49
23.5 Hydraulic Fan - Speed Display When the hydraulic fan option has been purchased, the Jackal control box will come pre-configured to display the fan speed on the screen in rpm. 23.6 Hydraulic Fan - Speed Sensor The fan speed sensor requires mounting in the grill over the fan inlet, using the hole provided.
Page 50
23.7 Hydraulic Fan - Mounting To mount the hydraulic fan, the back plate is pre drilled with four M8 bolt holes. It is recommended that all four bolt holes are used to mount the fan on a frame to support the fan securely.
