Important

Lubrication

1. Pump is shipped filled with oil. At initial start-up and daily afterwards, check oil level.
2. Single piston pump: Fill with TY6296 SAE 80/90 W EP oil or equivalent to oil port level.
3. Double piston pump: Fill both cavities with non-detergent SAE 30 oil to check plug level.
4. Fill pump lube fittings with multipurpose grease every 10 operating hours.

Prevent damage to pump

1. Keep pump filled with fluid always.
2. Protect from freezing - see overnight storage above freezing temperatures information.
3. Remove drive chain when not in use.

Overnight storage above freezing temperatures

1. Clear liquids with steady or rising temperatures: Leave pump and hoses filled with solution.
2. Clear liquids with falling temperatures (solution may precipitate out): Fill pump with water and leave filled (do not admit air).
3. Suspension fertilizer: This system not recommended for use with suspension fertilizers.

Extended storage (over 1 week) including winter storage Refer to Frame Decal and Operator Manual.

Important

Pump priming

1. Open shutoff valve at tank and strainer.
2. Set pump at maximum rate
3. High-pressure system with unit-mounted single disk fertilizer openers: Disconnect one opener hose unless using no. 12 nozzles. Skip this step when priming high-pressure system at solution application rate and travel speed for nozzle in use. High-pressure system with orifices: Remove one orifice unless using largest orifice. Also, may crack manifold valve if available on system. Low-pressure flow divider system: No action required.
4. Partially fill tank with water and check system for leaks.
5. Lower machine to planting position and drive 90—180 m (100—200 yd) at planting speed.
6. Fully charge system to eliminate all air bubbles. Air bubbles prevent even application. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until all air bubbles are flushed from lines.
7. Remove strainer screen and check for foreign material. Clean if necessary.
8. Reconnect hose, close valves, or install orifice removed in step 3.
9. Select fertilizer rate using rate charts.
10. For any delayed restart, check application lines for air bubbles and prime system as necessary.

A - Decal, Hydraulic Instruction

Transport to plant:
1. Place transport switch in Trans position, hold wing wheel switch, operate SCV lever to extend wing wheels completely to field raise position (complete cycle).
2. Place transport switch in Trans position, hold fold switch, operate SCV lever to unfold planter.
3. Place transport switch in Plant position, operate SCV lever to lower machine to plant position.

   Note: Avoid an unlevel frame. Do not stop step 1 before cycle is complete. To correct an unlevel frame, lower machine completely with transport switch in Plant position.
