• Air Velocity

Seed cart outlet air flow is NOT uniform from tube-to-tube.

Air flow from the outer tubes is traveling faster than air flow from the inner tubes, due to the special design of the seed cart's fan assembly.

• Primary Hoses

Primary hoses need not be the same length.

Longest air hoses should be attached to the outermost outlet tubes to benefit from their higher air velocity.

Avoid sharp bends, corners and kinks when routing hoses.

• Secondary Hoses

From a given header ring, maximum allowable difference between longest and shortest hose should be no more than 1219 mm (4 ft).

Should hose length difference exceed allowable maximum, route hoses using equalized method described.

1. Route longest hose from header ring to farthest opener/seed boot.

2. Use "spiral hose" routing to keep hose lengths within allowable difference 1219 mm (4 ft).

Hoses should gently slope down to openers in an "umbrella" fashion.

Avoid sharp bends.

Hoses should be routed level and/or down. Avoid rises after dips.
