Air Damper (Double-Shoot Plenum)-Adjustable device used to divide and balance air flow between top and bottom air streams (runs).
Agitator Shaft-Rocking shaft above meter that keeps product free flowing.
Meter Cartridge-Product handling device that meters product from tank into primary manifold.

GREENSTAR Display-Cab mounted monitoring device.
Control Unit-Cart mounted device containing microprocessor and software that controls display and program settings.
Sensor-Signal device used to detect product flow.
Clutch (Main Drive or Independent Meter)-Device used to control product delivery.
Remote Switch-Seeding tool mounted device that signals main drive clutch to turn off and on.
Application Rate-Amount of product delivered to the seedbed.
Auger-Product handling device used to fill and empty tanks.
