General Operation

• DO NOT RIDE!! Do not allow riders on theimplement when in motion.

• Do not allow extra riders in the tractor unless aninstructor seat and seat belt are available.

• Check behind when backing up.

• Reduce speed when working in hilly terrain.

• Never allow anyone within the immediate area whenoperating machinery.

• Keep all shields in place, replace them if removedfor service work.

• Always lock auger attachment in raised position.

• Keep hands clear of tank opening when closing lid.Keep lid seal clean to ensure proper sealing.

• Do Not enter tank unless anotherperson is present and the tractor enginehas been shut off.

Tractor Operation

• Be aware of the correct tractor operat ingprocedures, when working with implements.

• Review tractor operator’s manual.

• Secure hitch pin with a retainer and lock drawbarin centre position.


Safety

DangerFailure to comply may result in death or serious injury.

Read Operator’s Manual and decals on Ammonia tank before operating Air Drill.Become familiar with all warnings, instructions, and controls.

Always wear gloves and goggles when transferring or handling ammonia.

Always stay clear of hose and valve openings.

Always be sure pressure is relieved before disconnecting hoses or parts.

Always secure connecting parts and safety chains before towing ammonia trailer.

Always have ample water available in case of exposure to ammonia liquid or gases.

Chemicals

• Use extreme care when cleaning, filling or makingadjustments.

• Always read granular chemical or treated seedmanufacturer’s warning labels carefully andremember them.

• Wear close fitting clothing and appropriate personalprotective equipment for the job as specified bythe chemical and/or seed manufacturer.

• Always wear safety goggles, breathingapparatus and gloves when handling with granularchemical or treated seed.

• Do not feed any treated seed to livestock. Treatedseed is poisonous and may cause harm to personsor livestock.

• Wash exposed skin immediately - do not leavechemicals on your skin.

• Properly store chemicals in original containers withlabels intact per the manufacturer’s instructions.

• Always follow the manufacturer’s operatinginstructions and warning labels when operating anammonia tank with the equipment.

• Do Not enter tank unless anotherperson is present and the tractor enginehas been shut off.


Safety

Transporting

• Be aware of the height, length and width ofimplement. Make turns carefully and be aware ofobstacles and overhead electrical lines.

• Empty tanks before transporting. Do Not Exceed20 M.P.H. (32 kph) with an empty air cart.

• Use an agricultural tractor that is large enough withsufficient braking capacity so that the weight ofthe loaded equipment towed does not exceed 1.5times the weight of the tractor.

• Use flashing amber warning lights, turn signals andSMV emblems when on public roads.

• Do not transport in poor visibility.

• The slow moving vehicle (SMV) emblem andreflectors must be secured and be visible on themachine for transport.

• Avoid soft surfaces, the additional wing weight onthe centre wheels could cause the machine to sink.

• Ensure safety chain is attached correctly to thetowing vehicle and the hitch of the air cart.

• Check that wings are firmly seated in transportwing stops, and lock pins installed.

• Secure transport locks on depth control cylinders.

• Be familiar with and adhere to local laws.

Hydraulics

• Do not search for high pressure hydraulic leakswithout hand and face protection. A tiny, almostinvisible leak can penetrate skin, thereby requiringimmediate medical attention.

• Use cardboard or wood to detect leaks - never yourhands.

• Double check that all is clear before operatinghydraulics.

• Never remove hydraulic hoses or ends withmachine elevated. Relieve hydraulic pressurebefore disconnecting hydraulic hoses or ends.

• Maintain proper hydraulic fluid levels.

• Keep all connectors clean for positive connections.

• Ensure all fittings and hoses are in good condition.

• Do not stand under wings.


Safety

Maintenance

• Shut tractor engine off before making anyadjustments or lubricating the machine.

• Block machine securely to prevent any movementduring servicing.

• Wear close fitting clothing and appropriate personalprotective equipment for the job.

• Always wear safety goggles, breathing apparatusand gloves when working on seeder filled withgranular chemical or treated seed per themanufacture’s instructions.

• Do not modify the machine.

The MORRIS 7000 Series VRT Air Cart representsthe latest in Air Cart design technology. There arethree sizes available, a 180 bushel cart, a 240 bushelcart and a 300 bushel cart with hydraulic fan drive oran engine fan drive. The 180 bushel cart incorporatea three wheel, wide-stance high clearance frame. The240 bushel and 300 bushel carts incorporate a fourwheel, wide-stance high clearance frame. The highclearance frame gives easy access to the meteringwheels and the easiest cleanout in the industry. The7180, 7240 and 7300 carts have a 60:40 tank split.The tank lids are easily accessed by the convenientstairs and tank walk-through.

Each tank has it’s own metering system and meteringdrive. Included with the unit is a sample collector boxthat an operator can use to confirm seeding rates.

The metering system incorporates spiral fluted wheels.The size of the metering wheel is matched to thenumber of outlets on the patented flat fan divider givingthe best in accuracy. The spiral fluted metering wheelscombined with the multi-range transmission allows afull range of products like Canola to peas to be seededwithout having to change the metering wheels.

Options

Hydraulic Auger

The optional hydraulic auger is designed to make loadingand unloading product from the Air Cart tank very simpleand easy.

An optional Brush Flighting Kit is available to gentlyhandle seed.

For faster loading of the 7240 and 7300 Air Cart tanksan optional 8 inch auger is available.

Auger Spout Extension Kit #N23188

The spout extension allows the operator easy accessbetween the tanks without repositioning the auger,making filling the tanks more convenient.

The VRT system enables the operator the ability toincrease or decrease application rates from the tractorseat by pressing a button. Application rates can bechanged on the go in increments of 5% from the operatorset application rate (Max/Min - 50%). This enables theproducer the ability to match application rates to varyingsoil requirements.

The VRT monitor with its easy to read display and SmartSensors make basic operation effortless with unmatchedreliability. Advanced functions are simple to programand the monitor can be quickly plugged into the harnessat the Air Cart for ease of calibration. The monitorconstantly monitors shaft rotation and bin levels, andwith just a push of a button displays; fan speed, groundspeed, field acres seeded, total acres seeded and actualapplication rates per acre. Real time actual applicationrate of two tanks can be displayed simultaneously onthe monitor display.

Each metering shaft (up to three) is independently drivenby a hydraulic motor. The hydraulic motors areindependently controlled through electric solenoid valves.The VRT system senses ground speed and adjusts thehydraulic valves to maintain precise meter shaft rotationvs ground speed at a frequency of 20 times per second.The VRT system has the flexibility to allow the use ofeither tank for fertilizer or seed as well as the third tankor granular tank.

Monitor

Introduction

The monitor utilizes a multiplexed data communicationsystem to monitor the functions of the Air Cart. In themultiplexed system, all sensors communicate with themonitor on the same three wires.

The system can monitor and display status of thefollowing functions:• Fan speed• Ground speed• Shaft speeds (up to 3)• Bin levels (up to 3)• Flow Blockage (up to 192 runs)

An audio alarm will sound upon detection of: low or highfan speed, low shaft speed, low bin level and failure ofsensors. Also, loss of flow in any runs that are beingmonitored with Blockage Modules will generate alarms.Audio alarms persist until the alarm condition is removedor until the alarm is acknowledged by the operator bypressing the appropriate soft key.

In addition, the monitor can determine and display:• Field Area• Total Area• Application Rate (weight per unit area) (VRT systems

only)

The monitor allows the following settings to be changed:• High and Low fan speed alarm point• Low shaft speed alarm point for 3 meter shafts• Ground speed pulses per 400 ft and pulses per

revolution• Pulses per revolution of fan and 3 meter shafts• Low bin alarm for 3 bins• The number of Blockage Modules that are connected

to the monitor• The width of the implement• Imperial or metric units• English or Russian language

The settings listed above, as well as field andaccumulated areas are stored in nonvolatile memory.This means that the information is retained even whenpower is disconnected.

Two cables exit the rear of the monitor. There is a twowire power cable that connects to the tractor powersupply. The other is a three wire cable that brings powerand communications to the remote sensors through themain harness.

The variable rate console provides the means to:

• Turn on or off each/all metering shaft(s).

• Increase or decrease the application rate of anygiven shaft.

Master On/Off

Activates the shaft On/Off buttons. If any of the seedor fertilizer buttons are in an “On” state during a MasterOn, the variable rate controller will initiate any requiredmotor rotation of the respective shaft at the currentlyselected application rate. Master Off will deactivateall the shaft On/Off buttons and stop all motor rotation.A LED indicates whether the button is on or off.

Shaft 1 On/Off

Used to turn shaft 1 on and off. A LED indicates thecurrent state of the button.

Shaft 2 On/Off


Shaft 3 On/Off


Boost

Each push of the Boost button increases the applicationrate by 5% of the nominal rate to a maximum of 50%.The respective LED will flash quickly indicating theapplication rate is higher than the nominal rate. To returnthe application rate to nominal, the respective shaft On/Off button is pressed once. The LED will stop flashingand will stay on.

Cut

Each push of the Cut button decreases the applicationrate by 5% of the nominal rate to a minimum of 50%.The respective LED will flash slowly indicating theapplication rate is lower than the nominal rate. To returnthe application rate to nominal, the respective shaftOn/Off button is pressed once. The LED will stopflashing and will stay on.

Note: The application rate can be increased ordecreased up to 50%.

Sensor Installation

The installation procedure is required to configure themonitor to the sensors attached to it.

The operator may have to redo the installation if:

1) An extra tank is added to the Air Cart.

2) Replacing or adding sensors.

3) Replacing monitor with a new monitor.

Installation Precautions

1) During installation the monitor has a predeterminedorder in which it wants the sensors attached. Theinstaller must be sure that the proper sensor isplugged in the proper sequence.

i.e. If during installation the installer plugs in theFront Shaft and Ground Speed sensors in thewrong order, the monitor would not know this.The monitor would interpret Front Shaft rpm fromthe Ground Speed shaft and vice versa.

2) There may be occasions when the operator will nothave use of all the sensors.

i) During sensor installation when the monitorprompts for an unused sensor to be plugged in,the operator can press the SELECT key to skipover the sensor. The sensor will be assigneda disabled status. A sensor disabled by thismethod can only be enabled by repeating theinstallation procedure.

ii) During operation the operator can disable shaftsensors by setting the pulses per revolution tozero. When pulses are set to zero alarms forthat sensor and corresponding Bin Level sensorare ignored and no monitoring occurs.

3) Blockage modules attached to the harness arehandled differently than the sensors attached tothe harness. See Assembly Section “BlockageModule”.

Pin Sensors - the blockage module does not haveto be removed from the harness during initialsystem installation.

Optical Sensors - the blockage modules have tobe unplugged from the harness before sensorinstallation can be performed and are connectedlike the other sensors requested by the monitorduring sensor installation.

Note: Each monitor is unique to the sensors installed.If monitor is moved to another Air Cart it hasto be reprogrammed to match the sensors.

Alarms

Introduction

All configured sensors and various other operatingconditions are continuously monitored. Alarms fallinto one of the following three categories:

• Sensor alarms are alarms which are generatedwhen information returned by a sensor exceeds theappropriate threshold.

• Communication alarms occur when a sensorrepeatedly does not respond to attempts atcommunication.

• System alarms are for various other conditionsthat are found to be in fault.

When an alarm condition occurs the monitor will beeprepeatedly and an alarm screen will pop up indicatingthe fault condition.

The audio alarm and alarm screen persist until thealarm condition is fixed or until it is acknowledged bythe operator. Follow the steps on the screen to fix oracknowledge the alarm.

After acknowledgement, the “Operating Screen” willbe displayed with any unfixed alarms shown in the“active alarm window”. If there are more than oneacknowledged alarms, they will cycle on the display.

When the alarm condition is corrected, the alarmnotification is removed and ground speed will againbe displayed in bottom window.

Nuisance Shaft Alarm

Low application rates of Canola may cause the seedshaft to rotate less than 2 rpm.

The low shaft rpm will cause the monitor to give a shaftalarm, since the shaft is rotating below the defalt alarmthreshold of 2 rpm.

To avoid this nuisance alarm change the seed shaft lowrpm alarm setting to 0.5 rpm.

Note: Change the setting back to 2 rpm whenreturning to higher application rates.

Note: To “TURN OFF” any shaft not in use setpulses to 0. This will eliminate any nuisancealarms caused by an inactive shaft. Alsothe corresponding bin should be “Disabled”to eliminate any nuisance alarms caused byan empty bin.

Alarm Screen

Alarm - Operating Screen


Monitor

Alarms - Continued

“In Motion” Notification

The “In Motion” condition means that the monitor,based on ground speed and clutch state, considersthat the system is supposed to be actively seeding.

The monitor emits a double beep whenever the “InMotion” condition becomes true or false. This conditionis defined as speed greater than 2 mph (3.2 Kph) anddrive clutch engaged.

1. If ground speed is less than 2 mph (3.2 Kph) formore than 30 seconds the monitor will alarm anddisplay “Should be Seeding”.

2. If ground speed is greater than 2 mph (3.2 Kph) formore than 30 seconds and clutch is not engagedthe monitor will alarm and display “Clutch Switchis Off”.

Low Fan Alarms

Low fan alarms are handled differently because astopped fan can result in damage to the meteringmechanics as unblown material accumulates. Lowfan alarms can not be acknowledged while thesystem is “in motion”. Thus, if a low fan alarmoccurs during active seeding, the user will not be ableto silence the alarm with the soft key, but will need tostop the vehicle or disengage the clutch. When thishappens, the monitor accepts i t as anacknowledgement of the alarm, and an effective“automatic acknowledge” takes place, resulting in thebeeper being silenced and the resumption of normaldisplay with “Fan Low RPM” flashing in the alarmwindow.

Blockage Sensing

Module Installation

When blockage sensing systems are used, modulesmust be installed in the system, runs per module set,and calibration done while seeding.

Note: When optical modules are added, they mustbe learned by the monitor. See the “SensorInstallation”.

When pin sensors are added, the numberof sensors is set in each module on theseeding unit and the number of blockagemodules is set in the monitor.

Runs per Module Setup

The number of runs connected per blockage modulemust be set in order for the system to operate correctly.This should only need to be done when the blockagemodules are first installed, and afterwards only if thenumber of sensors is changed.

Optical Sensors the number of runs connected is setin the monitor. Refer to “Monitor Settings”.

Pin Sensors the number of runs connected is set oneach individual blockage module on the seeding unit.Refer to “Pin Sensor Installation” Section 10.

Individual Runs Setup

Optical Sensors Only

Runs can be enabled/disabled individually. This featureis useful for turning off runs that are not in use. Referto “Monitor Settings”.

Monitor

Trouble Shooting Guide

Most electronic problems are usually one of thefollowing:

• Harness connections.

• Damaged harness wires.

• Loose terminal in harness plug.

• Sensor to Actuator clearance.

• Defective sensor.

The monitor will alert the operator of these problemsas a communication error.

Checking Harness

First, check for the obvious things like brokenconnections, loose terminals, insulation rubbed off andso forth.

• Check continuity of wires with ohm meter.

Checking Sensors

The best approach to testing a sensor is to substitutea suspected sensor with a known good one. If theproblem goes away, the sensor is faulty. If it does notgo away, it is faulty wiring.

Bin Level Sensors ensure there is no foreign materialcovering the optical sensor. Remove material with acloth as not to damage lens.

Make sure sensor wires are not damaged.

Checking Blockage System

Check modules by performing a blockage module teston the monitor.

Optical sensors make sure the “optical eyes” are notcoated with material or worn down. Remove materialwith a cloth as not to damage lens.

Pin sensors make sure there is no buildup of materialon the pins. Remove material buildup with a knife andgently scraping away the material buildup.

Make sure sensor wires are not damaged.

Metering System

The 7000 Series Air Cart uses a combination ofmetering wheels and spacers shown below. Themetering wheel is individually sized to correspond tothe number of outlets at the connected secondary headand the spacers make up the space between the wheeland the body. Some openings may be blanked offdepending on the number of secondary divider headsused on the seeding tool.

The 7000 Series Air Cart can meter all types of seedsand fertilizers by simply adjusting the slider plates.See “Slider Settings” for more details.

Different rates are easily obtained using the selectionof quick change sprockets that attach to either of thetwo meter transmissions.

Note: Before putting product into the tanks checkthe following:

(a) The slider plates are set correctly for product beingapplied.

(b) The Clean-out doors are fully closed and sealed.

(c) The plastic bag covering the fan is removed.

Note: The number of outlets on the divider headmust match the metering wheel size.

ImportantEnsure distribution system is balanced. Itis very important that head outlets only varyby one . (i.e. use only 7 and 8 together, 8 and9 together, 9 and 10 together)


Operation

No. 10 No. 9 No. 8 No. 7

Metering System - Continued

Secondary Hose Installation

The lengths of the 15/16” diameter hoses are veryimportant.

For Accurate distribution the secondary hoses haveto be arranged by length symmetrically about thecentre line.

The longest hoses have to be in the centre of thedivider head. These hoses would normally feed theopeners furthest away from the head.

• Ensure that the secondary hoses 15/16” diameterdo not run higher than 3” above the height of theflat fan divider head.

• Allow an extra 3” of hose before cutting secondaryhose for fitting in the seed boot.

• Always ensure that the secondary hoses aresufficiently long to accommodate tripping of trips.

• Avoid sharp bends in any of the hoses.

• Check for pinch points and clearances when foldingin and out of transport.

ImportantHot water is the only acceptable lubricant forthe installation of the secondary hose.

The supplier advised MORRIS that WD-40 or anyother lubricant (i.e. liquid detergent) will have anegative effect on the chemical stability of thehose, resulting in the degradation and failure ofthe hose due to Environmental Stress Cracking.

ImportantDistribution uniformity will be adverselyaffected if hoses are incorrectly installed.


Operation

Slider Setting

The slider plates come in 4 different sizes. Each sliderplate matches a specific metering wheel.

Note: The slider plates must match the meteringwheel size.

The slider plates have three positions to allow all typesof seeds and fertilizers to be metered.

The slider plate positions are closed, open, andremoved as indicated on diagrams. (See next page)

• Position slider as indicated below and tighten nutto hold slider tightly in place.

• Position cover plate as indicated below and tightenwing nuts to hold cover plate in place.

Note: For Oats or Coarse Grains, if it appearsbridging is occurring, remove sliders andrecalibrate.

ImportantWhen adjusting the sliders to the closed positionfollow the procedures below:

1) Locate the key-way in the metering wheel.Rotate shaft until high spot is located, this isthe key-way location. Mark shaft for futurereference.

2) Rotate metering shaft until key-way is inlocation shown below.

3) Keep the slider mounting plate flat on themetering body surface. See diagram A.

If the slider is tipped up when set to the closedposition interference with the metering wheel willoccur.

Note: In the closed position there is a gap of.070" (1.778 mm) between the meteringwheel and the top edge of the sliderplate.

The Morris 7000 Series Air Cart is equipped with 2tanks. The front tank is for seed and the rear tank isfor fertilizer. However, BOTH tanks can be used forthe same product.

The capacity of the Air Cart Tanks are as follows:

• Open lid fully on tank being filled.

• Check and remove any debris inside tank.

• Remove clean-out door.

• Check for debris inside metering body.

• Check for sheared metering wheels.

• Check the slider plates are set correctly.

• Fully close and seal the Clean-out door.

• Ensure the auger screen is in place.

• Always use screen to filter debris when filling.

• Adjust bin level sensor to desired alarm point.

Note: Even small fertilizer lumps can causeproblems with plugging. All possibleprecautions should be taken to preventlumpy fertilizer from entering the tank.

WarningDo not enter tank unless another person ispresent.

Rate Calibration

The practice of doing a rate calibration isstrongly recommended as it will confirmthe actual amounts of product per motorrevolution (WT/REV).

The VRT system requires the WT/REVinorder to determine the shaft motor rpmto deliver the correct application rate.

The following procedure should be followedfor every change of product.

• Engage hydraulic lever to run Air Cart.

• Turn off fan by switching selector valve (locatedin the fan supply line) to calibration position.

• Remove the wing nuts on the collector bottom.

• Remove the bottom of the collector.

• Slide rate check box on the collector body.

• Prime metering wheels first by using the primerswitch to start and stop the meter drive. Allow thedrive to run until material begins to fall through thecollector body.

Note: Ensure the fan is not running.

• Empty material from rate check box and reinstall iton the same collector.

• The monitor can be relocated to the remote monitorlocation for ease of calibration. The three pin plugconnects to the monitor harness and the two pinconnects to the VRT controller harness.

Actual Sample

• Enter Calibration Mode for actual sample.

• Use the UP or DOWN button to move the triangleicon to the desired shaft.

• Hold the ACK button until 4 short beeps and 1 longbeep sounds. Release button after the long beep.

Operation

Note: The charts should only be used as a guide.Specific rates can be achieved by using therate check method as outlined under “RateCalibration”.

Metering Rate Adjustment

The metering rate adjustment for all tanks is done in thesame manner. The rate varies with the speed of themetering wheels. A new rate is achieved by changingthe APP RATE and or the WEIGHT/REV under the shaftprogram mode of the monitor.

Note: It is recommended to set WT/REV by doing a“Rate Calibration”.

If desired the product WT/REV can be determined fromthe chart located on the previous page. To determine aproducts WT/REV from the chart follow the stepsoutlined below:

• Determine which “Chart Column” the product to beapplied falls into from the “Calibration Material”columns on the left.

• Go to the specific “Chart Column” and follow columndown to the number of outlets on seeding tool. It isrecommended to use a highlighter to make the lineeasier to follow.

• At this intersection will be the required WT/REV forthe product.

Change the APRATE and WT/REV on monitor as follows:

Example: Adjust metering rate for Shaft 1.

1. From the “Operating Screen” press the MENU key toenter the “Settings Menu”. Use the Up/Down keysto select “Shaft Settings” press the SELECT key toenter function.

2. Under “Shaft Settings” use the Up/Down keys toselect “Shaft 1 Settings” press the SELECT key toenter function.

3. Press the SELECT key to enter “App Rate”. Use theUp/Down keys to change the value to the desiredapplication rate. Press the SELECT key to enter thevalue and move to the next parameter “Weight/Rev”in the list.

4. Press the SELECT key to enter “Weight/Rev”. Usethe Up/Down keys to enter desired weight per rev ofproduct from calibration chart. Press the SELECTkey to enter the value and move to the next parameter“Pulses Per Rev” in the list.

Note: It is recommended to set WT/REV by doing a“Rate Calibration”.

5. Use the Up/Down keys to select “Exit and Save” pressthe SELECT key to to save the changes and returnto “Shaft Settings” menu.

Follow the above procedure to check the rate of theother tanks.

Operation

Seeding Fine Seeds (Canola, Mustard, etc.)

When seeding fine seeds such as canola or mustard,the slow speed transmission has to be engaged toensure the low rates required for these products.

The slow speed transmission is incorporated in theFRONT Posi-Drive Transmission.

• To engage the slow speed, remove the large hairpinfrom the front shaft and install through the sleeveand shaft located at the rear of the transmission.

Note: Shaft will have to be rotated to align holesfor pin insertion.

• To disengage the slow speed, reverse the aboveprocedure.

• Rate checks can be performed the same way asfor other seeds.

• Usually it is necessary to reduce the fan rpm whenseeding fine seeds. See Fan Speed for specificfan speeds.

Note: Seed must be placed in the front tank.

Applying Inoculant

When inoculant is applied at the time of seeding, thenonce the Air Cart has been filled, the fill-lids shouldbe left open and the fan run for 5-10 minutes at fullrpm to dry the seed.

Calibration must be done after the seed is dried,otherwise the calibration will be incorrect.

Note: If the seed is not dried then the seed willhave a tendency to bridge and not meter intothe air stream.

HAIRPIN LOCATION FOR:

N27864

HAIRPIN


Operation

Hydraulic Fan Drive

The orbit motor on the fan requires tractor to haveeither a load sensing hydraulic system or a closedcentre hydraulic system with flow control.

Maximum flow required is 13 U.S. g.p.m. minimumpressure of 2000 p.s.i. However smaller flows can beused depending on the product being metered.

For correct operation of the fan the hydraulic motormust be coupled to the priority valve (if tractor is soequipped) in the hydraulic valve bank.

Check with the tractor manual or manufacturer todetermine if or which spool is a “priority valve”.

Speed fluctuations will result if the fan is not connectedto the priority valve if hydraulic system is equippedwith a priority valve.

Note: There is a one-way check valve installed inthe hydraulic circuit. If the fan does not rotate,then move hydraulic lever in the oppositedirection; this will engage the fan. This valveprevents damage to the hydraulic systemswhen the fan is shut OFF, by allowing the fanto freewheel.

Ensure couplers are free of dirt and are clean whenconnecting the fan hydraulics to the tractor.

A piston motor creates leakage past the internalcomponents for lubrication. This oil needs to go back tothe oil reservoir, the lowest pressure possible. The motorhas a 3/8” diameter drain line. This line must beconnected directly into the tractor hydraulic reservoir toensure that there is zero back pressure in the drainline,otherwise damage will result to the motor.

Note: Always warm-up hydraulic fluid byrunning hydraulic fan drive at lowest rpmpossible (1,000-2,000) for 5-10 minutesbefore operating at set rpm. Cold hydraulicfluid will cause pressure spikes in thesystem that will damage the case drain sealin the orbit motor.

Fan Speed Setting

Fan speed is adjusted by increasing the amount of oilbeing delivered to the motor. This is done by adjustingthe respective flow control valve until the desired rpmis displayed on the monitor.

IMPORTANTTypical shaft seal failures occur when thecase drain quick coupler is not attachedproperly or if the Air Cart is started in coldweather - cold weather makes the hydraulicoil very viscous - any time the Air Cart isstarted in cold weather the tractorhydraulics should be allowed to warm upfirst; then the fan should be started and runat the slowest speed possible for 5-10minutes before going to full speed.

Orbit Motor Drive

Hydraulic Coupling


Operation

Fan Speed

Adequate air volume is necessary at all times to carrythe product in the air stream. Air volume can becontrolled by adjusting hydraulic oil flow on hydraulicfan drives or adjusting engine speed on engine fandrive models.

Air volume hence fan speed requirements will varywith:

(a) Ground speed(b) Metering rate(c) Number of primary runs(d) Width of machine(e) Density and size of material

Excessive fan speed can cause seed damage, seedbouncing and premature wear of the system.

Generally fan speed is adequate if product flowsthrough the hoses without surging and the hosesempty quickly and evenly when the system shutsdown.

The table lists suggested minimum fan speeds forcertain products. The table should be used only asa guide. If plugging or surging occurs increase thefan speed to eliminate the problem.

Note: Once fan speed is properly set, be sure toadjust the monitor fan alarm settingaccordingly. See Monitor Section “MonitorPrograming”.

Note: It is recommended that after a rain or dewthe fan be run two to three minutes to expelany moisture in the system.

1.Plenum Setting

2.Diverter Setting

3.Quick Coupler Position (Tow Behind Only)

Plenum Damper Settings

Adequate air volume is necessary at all times to carrythe product in the air stream. Air volume can becontrolled by adjusting the plenum damper settings.

The table below lists initial plenum damper settingsfor certain products.

Note: The settings in table should be used onlyas a guide.

• If fertilizer plugging or surging occurs decreasethe seed damper setting to eliminate the problem.

• If seed plugging or surging occurs increase theseed damper setting to eliminate the problem.

Operating Guidelines

There are a number of areas that can cause problemswhen seeding. Listed below are specific points thatshould be addressed at all times. Following theseguidelines will ensure better crop emergence andconsequently the potential for better yields.

An improperly levelled seeding tool cause unevendepth which could result in poor emergence.

It is important that the seeding tool is levelled bothside to side and front to back.

Check Tire Pressures

• Ensure all tires are inflated to their specifiedpressure. Incorrect tire pressure can cause depthvariations.

Level Seeding Tool Side to Side

• Check the depth of each shovel on the back row.

• Adjust side to side level as necessary. See seedingtool manual for more details.

Level Seeding Tool Front to Rear

• Poor front to rear levelling causes ridging as shown.

• Check the depth of two adjacent shanks normallyone on the front row and one on the rear row.

• Adjust level as necessary. See seeding toolmanual for more details.

Worn Seeding Tool Parts

• Shanks that are bent cause uneven depth and theyshould be repaired or replaced.

• Trip mechanisms that are worn can also cause poordepth control and any worn parts should be repairedor replaced.

Packing

• Packing behind the seeding unit is stronglyrecommended. This improves germination andhelps reduce moisture loss and erosion.

• In wet conditions the head land should be donelast to prevent over packing.

Operation

Operating Guidelines - Continued

Turning

• Avoid sharp turns. Backing up of the outer wingswith the seeding tool in the ground has a tendencyto plug the seed boot with soil.

• Raise seed boots fully before making sharp turnsor backing machine.

Seed Rate Settings

• Remove any caked-on material from sliders andmetering wheels.

• Ensure all sliders are properly set and wheels turnfreely.

• Check product rates carefully by performing acalibration check.

Fertilizer Application

• Avoid using fertilizers that absorb moisture readily,especially during periods of high humidity.

• Also avoid fertilizers that contain a high percentageof fine dust, as these materials can plug meteringwheels and coat the inside of seed distributionsystem.

Fan Setting

• Run fan at recommended speed. If plugging orsurging occurs increase the fan speed to eliminatethe problem.

• Allow tractor hydraulic oil to warm-up thoroughlyprior to seeding. Cold oil will cause slower fanspeeds (Hydraulic driven fan).

Product Application

• Control product application with the clutch switchin tractor.

• Have machine moving forward before lowering seedboots to avoid plugging.

• To prevent skipping, allow 15 feet of forward travelto ensure air system has delivered product to seedboots.

Note: Do not attempt to meter product when fanis not running. Damage to the meteringwheels may occur.

Note: If equipped with a granular tank, the linesmust be blocked off when not in use.

Note: It is strongly recommended to consult localagricultural extension offices for allowableproduct rates, which are dependent on soilmoisture and type.


Operation

Adjustments and Operational Checks

• When changing fields and periodically throughoutthe day the seeding tool should be checked forlevel and depth and the seed boots for blockage.

Checking Seed Flow

The following procedure should be implementedthroughout the day typically at each fill of the Air Cart:

• Raise the seeding tool out of the ground.

• With the fan running turn the crank on the reartransmission 4 or 5 turns.

• Seed and/or fertilizer should appear at each outleton the ground.

• If no seed or fertilizer appears on the ground atany of the openers check for hose blockage in boththe 1” diameter secondary and the 2 1/2” diameterprimary hose, as well as in the flat fan divider.

• See Trouble Shooting Section for possible causesof the blockage.

Moisture Alert

• Whenever Air Cart has been standing for an houror more during period of high humidity or damp,rainy days, or after sitting overnight, run fan atrecommended rpm, with machine stationary for 5minutes.

Air Leaks

It is imperative that no air leaks occur in the Air Carttank as even the smallest air leak from the lid willlead to material bridging in the tank thereby causingmisses in the field.

Check the following areas for air leaks:- Tank clean-out door- Metering body assembly seals- Collector assembly seals- Tank lid

Tank Low in Product

• Refill tank before metering wheels are exposed.

• The metering wheels must be completely coveredto avoid unseeded strips.


Note : Check Seed Flow as described above, afterrunning fan for 5 minutes.

ImportantCheck Metering Wheel keyways inthe event the primary lines plug.

Keyways may shear if the collector becomespluged.


Operation


Monitor

• Familiarize yourself with all monitor functions.

• Ensure all monitor “settings” are correctly set forthe Air Cart/Seeding Tool combination.

• Recognize and correct alarm conditions asindicated on the machine.

• Check all wire harness connections for corrosionand use a dielectric spray to clean. Inspect allsensors for proper gap.

Improperly adjusted or worn seed openers can causepoor seed/fertilizer separation and plugging whichcould result in poor emergence.

It is important that the seed openers be properlyadjusted.

Note: Points should be adjusted according to wearand deflectors replaced when worn.

Listed below are guidelines for seed openers S25962,S28158, S29000, and S29140.

Note: When applying Anhydrous Ammonia it isstrongly recommended to consult localagricultural extension offices for allowablerates which are dependent on soil moistureand soil type.

Note: Do not attempt to meter product when fanis not running. Damage to the meteringwheels may occur.

Note: It takes approximately 15 feet of forwardtravel @6 M.P.H. before product reaches theseed openers.


Operation

Manual Override

If the variable rate control system fails, the independentmanual override system can be used to maintain seederoperation.

The manual override system provides the ability to runthe hydraulic motors at a fixed rate (not proportionalto ground speed) and to turn the manual system ONand OFF from the tractor cab.

Rate Setting

To set the manual override system use the followingprocedure:

• Turn Monitor, VRT Console and Controller Switch OFF.

• Empty product from tanks.

• Refer to the appropriate “Ground Speed Chart” onthe following pages or use the calculations below todetermine the Shaft Motor RPM for the desiredproduct.

• Adjust Shaft Motor RPM using following procedure:

• Place hand held tachometer onto motor shaft.

• Loosen Jam Knob.

• Turn Adjusting Knob IN (Clockwise) until motorturns desired RPM.

• Tighten Jam Knob to secure Adjusting Knob inplace.

• Repeat the above procedure for the other motors.

Note: Re-zero shaft hydraulic motors once normaloperation of system is resumed.

Solenoid Valve Body

Calculating Shaft RPM

If it is desired to calculate the exact rpm for a more specific ground speed use the following:

Know parameters:

Working Width The operating width of seeding tool. (feet)

Working Speed Operating ground speed. (mph)

Application Rate Weight of product. (lbs/acre)

Product WT/REV Known from calibration mode or can determine from Calibration Chart. (lbs/rev)


Operation

Operating in Manual Override

• Refill tanks.

• Switch Controller switch OFF and Override Bypassswitch to ON, this will shut off the Shaft Motors.

• Start Fan.

• Move forward with seeding tool at desired speed.

Note: It is important to maintain a constant groundspeed since product application rate will notadjust to any changes in ground speed.

• Engage metering system by turning OFF OverrideBypass switch.

• Lower seeding tool into ground.

• Turning at headland:

• Disengage metering system by turning ONOverride Bypass switch, immediately raiseseeding tool fully rephasing hydraulics (seeseeding tool manual).

• Once turned engage metering system by turningOFF Override Bypass switch and lower seedingtool into ground.

Note: Re-zero shaft hydraulic motors once normaloperation of system is resumed.

Controller/Override Switches

Manual Override - Continued

Calculating Shaft RPM

Determine in the following order:

1)Travel Distance (feet per acre) = 43560 ft2 / Working Width (ft)

2)Travel Speed (feet per minute) = Working Speed (MPH) x 5280 ft/mile / 60 min/hr

3)Travel Time (minutes per acre) = Travel Distance ft/acre / Travel Speed (ft/min)

4)Motor Revs per acre = Application rate (lbs/acre) / WT/REV (lbs/rev)

5)RPM = Motor Revs (revs/acre) / Travel Time (min/acre)

6)Meter Shaft RPM

Direct Drive = Motor RPM / 2

Slow Speed Drive = Motor RPM / 16

Lubrication

Greasing pivot points prevents wear and helps restrictdirt from entering. However, once dirt does enter abearing, it combines with the lubricant and becomesan abrasive grinding paste, more destructive than gritalone.

• Apply new lubricant frequently during operation toflush out old contaminated lubricant.

• Use a good grade of lithium based grease.

• Use a good grade of machine oil.

• Clean grease fittings and lubricator gun beforeapplying lubricant.

Refer to the photos on page 7-6 and 7-7 for greasefitting locations.

Air Delivery System

General

The air delivery system of all Air Carts is extremelyimportant for the proper metering of product to the openers.The metering system on all pressurized Air Carts issensitive to air leaks. Loss of tank air pressure couldaffect feed rates, which could become erratic or evenstop.

• Regularly check that all hoses are free from kinks orblockages throughout the day. To check for blockagesraise seeding tool out of the ground and with the fanrunning turn crank a couple of turns. Equal amounts ofmaterial should be deposited under each boot if notcheck the following for blockage:

1.Seed openers and secondary hoses.

2.Divider heads by removing access doors.

3.Primary hoses and collectors.

4.Metering wheels for damage to key-way and the flutesof the wheel.

• Keep fan inlet screen clear and free from debris.

• Place a plastic bag over the fan when the unit is not inuse. This helps prevent moisture from entering thesystem.

• Check periodically and at the end of each season forair leaks at hose connections.

• Check periodically and at the end of each season forair leaks at the following:

1.Tank Lid Seals.

2.Metering body shaft seals.

3.Metering body to tank seals.

4.Collector to metering body seals.

5.Fan to plenum.

6.Plenum to collector.

7.Clean-out doors, for leaks and loss of seal memory.

8.Collector door seals.

9.Diverter Valves.

10. Couplers between seeder and cultivator.

11. Access Doors on Divider Heads.

Note: There must not be any air leaks from the tank.This air leakage causes air turbulence in thetank which can result in inaccurate meteringrates.

• Once a year check for wear of primary and secondaryhoses.

CautionCare should be taken when working near theAir Cart while the fan is running. Productblowing out of the system could causepersonal injury.

Note: Extended life can be obtained if the hosesare rotated 1/4 turn once a year.


Maintenance

ImportantIt is imperative that no air leaks occur in theAir Cart tank as even the smallest air leakfrom the lid will lead to material bridging inthe tank thereby causing misses in the field.

Note: When Air Cart is not in use, leave lid latchesloose to help maintain resilience of theseals.

Note: This bolt should be loose enoughto allow lid to float in the slot.

Air Delivery System - Continued

Tank Lids

The lid seal is probably the area that sees the mostabuse due to the activity associated with filling thetanks.

With each fill the lid seals should be inspected forcuts, abrasions, debris in the seal and ensure the sealis positioned properly on the steel rim around the tankopening.

Tank Lid Adjustment

Check Tank Lid tension on all tanks at beginning ofeach season and periodically during season for airleaks. The following checks and adjustments mustbe made to prevent air leaks from occurring:

• Check for any foreign material embedded into seal.Clean out foreign material from seal surface.

• Check seal for cuts and abrasions. If seal is cutor severely worn, then replace seal.

• Ensure seal is positioned properly on steel rimaround tank opening.

• Use a 0 - 100 lb. (45 kg) spring scale to checkthe tank lid opening force. With the lid closedplace one end of the scale one inch from theend of the tank lid lever. Pull straight up on thescale and note the maximum force it takes toopen the lid. The force needed to open the lidmust be greater than 65 lbs (29 kg). Adjustthe lid latch adjusting bolt as necessary. Thelid latch should close with a snap. This willensure that the l id is sufficiently t ight andprevent any leaks.

• Re-check for leaks. If lids still leak turn down boltone or two more turns. Re-check for leaks.

These bolts and lock nuts must be tightenedto maintain a friction fit so the lid latch staysstationary when in open position.

Adjust the lid latch adjusting bolt to obtaina force greater than 65 lbs (29 kg) to openthe lid.

65 LBS (29 kg)


Maintenance

ImportantIt is imperative that no air leaks occur in theAir Cart tank, as even the smallest air leakwill lead to material bridging in the tank,thereby causing misses in the field.

Note: When Air Cart is not in use leave lid latchesand clean-out doors loose to help maintainresilience of the seals.


Air Leak Check

It is imperative that no air leaks occur in the Air Cart tank.Any air leaks could cause loss of tank air pressure affectingfeed rates, which could become erratic or stop.

To prevent this from occurring, it is strongly recommendedthat a pressure test be conducted prior to seeding time. Thiscan be performed very easily and simply by completing thefollowing steps:

• Clean fan impeller and adjust tank lids.

• Disconnect the 2 1/2” (64 mm) diameter primary hosesfrom the rear of the cultivator at the primary hose coupler(s)by loosening the four 3/8” bolts.

• Install the blank off plate that is supplied with the Air Cartat each coupler and retighten the 3/8” bolts. If the blank offplates are not readily at hand a piece of cardboard can beused in its place.

• Once the blank off plates have been installed, start the fanand run at 4,500 rpm.

Check the following areas for air leaks:

1. Tank lid seals.

2. Metering body shaft seals.

3. Metering body to tank seals.

4. Collector to metering body seals.

5. Fan to plenum and plenum to collector.

6. Clean-out doors, for leaks and loss of seal memory.

7. Collector door seals.

8. Diverter valves and double shoot mounting plates.

9. Tanks union plate.

10.Tank site glasses.

Air leaks can be detected by spraying a soapy water solutiononto the seal area. If bubbling of soap occurs, the seal has aleak. Another method is to use your hand to feel for any airmovement around the seal. This method requires a calm day,as the wind can make it difficult to detect a small leak.

• If any of the above areas leak, remove the parts and replacethe seal. Ensure upon reassembly that the parts aretightened sufficiently to prevent air leakage.

• Remove the blank off plates before using the Air Cart.

Once the pressure test is complete, check the following areasfor air leaks:

11. Couplers between seeder and cultivator.

12. Access doors on divider heads.


Maintenance

Note: Material build up on the fan blades couldcause the fan to be out of balance. The addedvibration of the out of balance impeller willreduce the life of the fan components.

Material on the Fan Blades


Fan

Debris can build up on the fan screen and bladescausing reduced output of the fan. The lack of airflow even at higher fan speeds will cause materialplugging of the air system.

The build up of material during operation can causethe following:

1. Fan rpm will increase without increasing oil flow toorbit motor.

2. Air Cart distribution system plugging from a lack ofair flow (Increasing fan rpm has little or no effect).

Fan Screen

• Ensure fan screen is clear of debris. Checkperiodically through the day.

Fan Impeller

The fan blades may become plugged under highhumidity/dusty conditions/high insect counts.

Under severe conditions the fan blades should beinspected daily and cleaned as required.

Under normal conditions the fan should be inspectedand cleaned at least once a season.

• Care should be taken in cleaning all fan bladesthoroughly to restore the fans peak performance.

• Ensure that the balance clips located on the fanblades are not removed, as this will put the fan outof balance.

Storage

To prevent water entering the air system, cover thefan intake with a plastic bag, whenever the seeder isnot in use.

Note: Be sure to remove fan cover prior to startingfan. Serious damage could result to the fan.


Maintenance

DO NOT USECENTRE PORT ON

ALL PLENUMS

Set clearance "X" between the impeller andhousing inlet from 3/8" (9mm) to 1/2” (12 mm).

Hoses

Inspect air delivery hoses for wear and replace asrequired. Check areas where hoses maybe exposedto moving parts such as hitch hinge area. At the AirCart hitch area, place a piece of 2 1/2” (64 mm) hose12” (305 mm) long over top of the two hitch extensionpins to protect air hoses from contacting pins.

Also, inspect hoses for blockage as rodents/birds maynest in hoses that have not been properly cappedduring storage.

To optimize the 7000 Series Air Cart air system onsingle shoot units the difference in length betweenthe longest primary hose and the shortest primary hoseshould not exceed six feet.

In conjunction with this, it is important to eliminatethe use of the centre port of the plenum. Check plenumhose routing, if centre port of the plenum is usedchange hose location.


Impeller Clearance

The impeller should be centred inside the housing toavoid contact between the impeller and housing.

The distance "X" between the impeller and housing inlet,when centred, will be approximately 3/8” (9 mm) to 1/2”(12 mm).

When assembling fan ensure flange surfacesof housing are clean.

Apply a 1/4" (6 mm) silicone bead to oneflange surface of housing including outletseam.

Mate surfaces and secure in place with 1/4" x 1"hex bolts (G) and 1/4" serrated lock nuts (H).

Note: Torque 1/4" bolts to 49 in. lb.


Maintenance

Hydraulic Orbit Motor

The motor requires no maintenance itself.

It does, however, require clean oil so the tractorhydraulic filters must be replace regularly.

Repair/Replacement

• Remove orbit motor from the fan.

Note: The shaft should never be hammered on orforced in as this will result in motor damageupon startup.

• Remove the snap ring and front cover.

• Push out the old shaft seal and press in the newone.

Note: The bearings should never be removed fromthe shaft as they are pretensioned to theshaft with the motor spinning.

• Replace the O ring.

• Both the O ring and shaft seal should be greasedwith a “very clean” grease.

• Care must be taken when the front cover is installedso the shaft seal is not damaged.

• Reinstall the snap ring.

• Fill the motor case with “clean” oil before running.

Note: Any time a motor is replaced the case mustbe filled with oil before it is started, if not, abearing failure could occur.


Maintenance

Contact your nearest Dealer for genuine repair parts.Dealers carry ample stocks and are backed by themanufacture and regional associations.

WarningHIGH-PRESSURE FLUID HAZARD


• Relieve pressure on hydraulic system before servicingor disconnecting hoses.

• Wear proper hand and eye protection when searchingfor leaks. Use wood or cardboard instead of hands.

• Keep all components in good repair.

Note: Extreme care must be taken to maintain aclean hydraulic system. Use only newhydraulic fluid when filling reservoir.

Hydraulics

Refer to Section 1 regarding hydraulic safety. In addition:

• Inspect hydraulic system for leaks, damaged hosesand loose fittings.

• Damaged Hoses and hydraulic tubing can only berepaired by replacement. DO NOT ATTEMPTREPAIRS WITH TAPE OR CEMENTS. Highpressure will burst such repairs and cause systemfailure and possible injury.

• Leaking cylinders - install a new seal kit.

• Fittings - use liquid Teflon on all NPT hydraulic joints.Do not use liquid Teflon or Teflon tape on JIC orORB ends.

• Hydraulic Hose Connections - when connecting thehoses to the cylinders, tubing, etc. always use onewrench to keep the hose from twisting and anotherwrench to tighten the union. Excessive twisting willshorten hose life.

• Keep fittings and couplers clean.

• Check the Tractor Manual for proper filter replacementschedule.

Refer to the Trouble Shooting Section.

CautionDirt in the hydraulic system could damageO-rings, causing leakage, pressure loss andtotal system failure.


Maintenance

Wheel Bearings

• Shut tractor off and remove key.

• Block wheel on tractor.

• Raise the Air Tank wheels enough to clear thesurface.

• Securely block Air Tank frame.

• Remove wheel from hub.

• Remove the dust cap, cotter pin, and the slottednut and washer.

• Be careful when pulling the hub off as not to dropthe outer bearing.

• Clean spindle and bearing components with solvent.

• Inspect for wear on bearings, spindle and cups,replace parts as required.

• Do not reuse old seals. Use only new seals whenassembling.

• Pack inner hub with bearing grease.

• Be sure bearing and cup are dry and clean.

• Work grease into the bearing rollers, until each partof the bearing is completely full of grease.

• Install inner bearing and cup first, then press newseals in place.

• Place hub on spindle.

• Install outer bearing, washer and slotted nut.

• Tighten nut while turning the wheel until a slightdrag is felt.

• Back nut off one slot and install a cotter pin. Bendcotter pin up around nut.

• Pack grease inside the dust cap and tap intoposition.


Maintenance

Front Castor Brake Adjustment

The 7240 and 7300 Air Cart Dual Axle Front Castor isequipped with a brake which prevents the tires fromshimmy under normal operation. It is important thefront castor brake be properly adjusted. If the brakeis not adjusted correctly the tires will shimmyexcessively and may cause the axle assembly to fail.

Adjust the castor brake as follows:

• Check and ensure there is no paint/greasewhere the brake pad rides, as the paint/greasewill reduce the effectiveness of the brake.

• Inspect brake pad (N25465) ensuring it is notdamaged or worn, replace if required.

Note: Maximum allowable wear is 1/8” (6 mm).(New pad is 3/8” (9 mm) thick)

• Check and ensure the hex socket brake padmounting screws (N25463) are securelytightened.

• Check preload on castor fork top pivot bearings(with brake pad assembled loosely). Tighten asrequired using wheel bearing tightening procedure(springs wil l compress to a length ofapproximately 2 3/8"[60 mm]).

• Adjust the jam nuts until the spring length is 2-1/8" (54 mm). See Below.

• Increase the spring pressure on the brake tostop the castor wheels from shimming in thefield or on the road.

Note: Do not overtighten the springs. Excessivespring pressure will prevent wheels fromcastoring.

Note: Tighten jam nuts until thespring length is 2 1/8" (54 mm)

ImportantDual wheel brake will provide sufficientpressure to stabilize castor at all travelspeeds up to 18 m.p.h. (28 kph). Avoidsetting more pressure on brake pad thanrequired to maintain stability. Tow only withall tanks empty. If a unit must be towedloaded over a short distance, the transportspeed must be reduced to 10 m.p.h. (16kph)or slower.


Maintenance

Metering

The metering wheels come in 4 different sizes. Eachwheel matches to a specific distribution head mountedon the Seeding Tool.

If the metering wheel and distribution head are notmatched correctly, the distribution accuracy will beadversely affected.

Spacer plates are used to take up the extra space ineach metering cup. These spacer plates vary in sizeaccording to the size of the metering wheel.

Metering Wheel Replacement

• Remove the monitor donut from the Right HandSide of the metering body.

• Disconnect meter shaft coupler from the metershaft and transmission drive shaft.

• Loosen the locking collars on the meter shaftbearings.

• Remove the bolts holding the meter shaft bearingsand remove both bearings.

• Remove the meter shaft from the Right Hand Side.

• Remove the slider plates from all cups with meteringwheels.

• Remove the metering wheels. Inspect wheels andreplace if required.

• Clean cups in metering body thoroughly prior to re-assembly.

• Smear a very-very thin layer of silicone on the pinside of the spacer plates for the 7, 8 and 9 meteringcups.

Option ‘B’ - Four Sensors per Head - Secondary Hoses



Options Assembly

Ground Wire


1. Module should be mounted vertically as shown orinverted under a Divider Head with ‘Drip Loops’.

2. Module should be mounted on the Seeding Toolonly. (Mounted to Divider Head)

3. The module must be grounded to Seeding Toolframe. Attach ground wire provided (or 10 GA wireas req’d) to the back mounting plate of module andto Seeding Tool frame for a good ground.

Note: A good ground is essential. Remove paintfrom any ground contacts.

4. Sensors should be mounted 2 ft away from thedivider head to the top side of the secondary hose.Sensors should never be mounted on inside curveof a hose.

5. The pin sensor wire and the module lead wire shouldalways have a ‘Drip Loop’ to ensure moisture isdirected away from the module and pin sensors.

6. Splice secondary hose, connecting bubble intohose with hose clamps.

Note: The sensors should be numbered andshould be placed in an orderly fashion inthe seed tubes, then connected sequentiallyto the connector panel (this will make iteasier to identify blocked runs).

7. Secure pin sensor to bubble with a tie strap.

8. Disconnect module from main wiring harness atWeather Pak connector when unhooking Air Cartfrom Seeding Tool.



Options Assembly

Wiring Procedure

• Remove blockage module housing.

• Feed the cables through the holes in the housingand then attach the push-on connectors on theconnector panel of the module as illustrated infigure 3.

• The cable seal and grommet should then be snuglypushed against the housing.

• Set switch S1 SENSOR, located on the front ofthe connector panel, to the number of sensors thatare connected to that module.

Wiring Procedure - Continued

• Connect the first module on the system to the AirCar t wiring harness using the cable with aconnector on it. White or Red wire is +12VDC,Green or Brown is Data, and Black is Ground.See figure 4.

• Connect module 1 to module 2 and module 2 tomodule 3 etc. See figure 5.

• Set switch S2 ADDRESS, located on the front ofthe connector panel. In a system where there are 3blockage modules, the addresses must be 1, 2, and3. The modules should be numbered in such a waythat it is easy for the operator to identify them bythe address displayed on the monitor.

• After all the sensors have been connected andelectrical connections have been made, the coversshould be replaced on the housings.
