Bridged and Blocked CCS System
If seed monitor issues a Row Failed warning, first determine if seed delivery tube is plugged or product is bridged in CCS tank. To determine cause, do the following:
1.
Start CCS fan.
2.
Remove lid from affected row unit hopper.
3.
Observe the amount of air flowing through hopper discharge elbow (A).
-
If
Low Air Flow
is noted, the CCS delivery hose has plugged. See Remove CCS Hose Blockage in this procedure.
-
If
High Air Flow
is noted, product has bridged in CCS manifold. See Product Has Bridged in CCS Tank Manifold in this procedure.
Remove CCS Hose Blockage
1.
Turn off CCS fan.
2.
Remove seed delivery hose from affected row unit.
3.
Shake hose vigorously from hopper to CCS tank until blockage spills from end of hose.
4.
Reconnect hose.
5.
Start CCS fan and check that seed flows into hopper.
6.
If no seed flow is observed, repeat procedure.
