A74148-UN-30JAN12

A - Decal, Fertilizer Pump

LUBRICATION (See Lubrication section.)

• Fill pump lube fittings with multipurpose grease every 10 hours of operation.
• Check oil level at initial start-up and then daily.
• Single piston pump: Fill with TV6296 SAE 80/90 W EP gear oil or equivalent to the oil port level.

  Double piston pump: Fill both cavities with non-detergent SAE 30 oil to the check plug level.

PREVENT DAMAGE TO PUMP (See Storage section.)

• Keep pump filled with fluid at all times.
• Remove drive chain when not in use.
• Protect from freezing (see storage information below).

Overnight Storage In Above Freezing Temperatures:

• Using a clear fertilizer solution with steady or rising temperatures: Acceptable to leave pump and hoses filled.
• Using a clear fertilizer solution with falling temperatures (solution may separate): Fill pump with water and leave filled (do not admit air into system).
• Suspension fertilizer: This system not recommended for use with suspension fertilizers.

Extended Storage (Over 1 Week) Including Winter Storage: Refer to frame decal and operators manual.

IMPORTANT:

PUMP PRIMING (See Liquid Fertilizer System section.)

1. Open shutoff valve at tank and strainer.

2. Fill tank with a minimum of 75 L (20 gal.) and check system for leaks

3. IMPORTANT: Avoid excessive system pressure. Do not exceed maximum recommended rate for orifice or nozzle size.

   Refer to rate chart and set pump to maximum rate for the in-line orifice or nozzle that is installed.

4. Lower machine to planting position and drive 90 meters (100 yards) at planting speed 9.7 km/h (6 mph.).

5. Raise machine and turn fertilizer pump drive wheel by hand.

6. Check all rows for liquid exiting the opener tubes in a steady stream. Repeat steps 2—5 until a steady flow of liquid is apparent at all openers and all air is flushed from distribution hoses.

7. Select a target fertilizer rate from rate chart. Set pump range and install in-line orifices or nozzles for selected fertilizer rate.

8. NOTE: As travel speed increases, the fertilizer system pressure also increases.

   Verify that system pressure is within 103—621 kPa (1.0—6.2 bar) (15—90 psi) when traveling at desired planting speed.

9. If machine is stationary for a long period, air bubbles can develop and become trapped in the distribution hoses. Prime system as necessary.
