CCS Product Delivery
| Symptom | Problem | Solution |
|
Plugged delivery hoses.

Clean seed or use lid
screen.
|
| |

|
Remove hose by pulling
straight off (do not twist) from nozzle to remove material causing
plug.
|
| |

|
Route hoses correctly.
|
| |
High humidity.
|
Use more talc and mix
thoroughly or wait for drier conditions.
|
| |
CCS™ fan running while not planting for excessive
period of time.
|
Turn off fan when not
planting for more than a few minutes.
|
|

be covered to deliver seed.
|
| |

|
Remove screen and tap
until clear.
|
| |
Discharge elbow plugged.
|
Remove elbow and clean.
|
| |
Air volume too low.
|
Increase CCS™
tank pressure. See Set CCS™ Tank Pressure in Central Commodity
System section.
|
| |
Blockage in air hose.
|
Clear air hose.
|
| |
Blockage in nozzle.
|
Shut off CCS™
fan. Remove delivery hose by pulling straight off (do not twist) nozzle
and remove material.
|
| |
Seed compacted in tank nozzles.
|
See Bridged And Blocked
CCS™ System in Central Commodity System section.
|
| |

seed.
|
Remove nozzle inserts
when not planting small seed.
|
| |

is set to recommended pressure.
|
| |
Blockage in air hose.
|
Cleanout meter using
tray. Reinstall seed bowl and close vacuum dome. Start CCS™
fan and shake hose vigorously near meter. Continue shaking hose closer
and closer to tank. Increase tank pressure, if necessary to blow seed
out easier. If meter fills with seed, repeat process until no more
seed is in hose.
Check that both tank
lids are securely closed.
|
| |
Blockage in nozzle inside tank.
|
Engage tractor parking
brake, put transmission in “Park”, shut off tractor, and
remove outlet delivery hose from CCS™ tank. Check for obstruction.
Remove any obstruction. Reconnect seed delivery hose.
|
| |
Seed compacted in tank nozzles.
|
Engage tractor parking
brake, put transmission in “Park”, shut off tractor, and
remove outlet delivery hose from CCS™ tank. Loosen and remove
seed stuck in nozzle. Whenever planter is lowered and stationary for
more than a few minutes with seed in CCS™ tank, shut off tractor
and turn off key. Agitators run anytime planter is lowered and key
is “On”. This causes seed to pack into nozzles.
|
| |
High humidity.
|
Use more talc-graphite.
Mix thoroughly or wait for drier conditions.
|
| |

|
Close lid.
|
| |

air.
|
Close doors.
|
| |

|
Clear plug and decrease
CCS™ tank pressure.
|
| |
Seed bridging in CCS™ tank.
|
Check if agitator is
running. Check fuse, power connection, and ground lead.
Increase CCS™
tank pressure.
Add more talc-graphite.
Mix thoroughly.
|
| |
CCS™ tanks empty.
|
Fill CCS™ tanks.
|
| |
Nozzle inserts installed on nozzles for planting small
seed.
|
Remove nozzle inserts
when planting other crops.
|
|
Seed damage.
| Air volume too high. |
Reduce CCS™ tank
pressure.
Add talc-graphite mix.
|
| |
Old, dry seeds.
|
Use fresh seeds.
|
|
Individual rows overpopulation.
| Meter vacuum level too high. |
Decrease vacuum level.
|
| |
Vacuum hopper vent plugged.
|
Clean vent.
|
| |
Discharge elbow vent plugged.
|
Clean vent holes in
elbow.
|
| |
Seed sensor installed incorrectly in the BrushBelt cartridge.
|
Make sure the center BrushBelt™ cartridge wear
liner tab is inserted into the slot on the sensor.
|
|
Uneven or inaccurate metering or product delivery.
| CCS™ tanks running empty. |
Fill or redistribute
seed in CCS™ tanks.
|
| |
Product level in seed meter too low for accurate delivery.
|
Increase CCS™
tank pressure.
|
| |
Foreign material blocking product passages.
|
Remove blockage. Use
screens when filling tanks.
Engage tractor parking
brake, put transmission in “Park”, shut off tractor, and
remove outlet delivery hose from CCS™ tank. Check for obstruction.
Remove any obstruction. Reconnect seed delivery hose.
|
| |

|
Use clean seed. Use
screens when filling tanks.
|
| |

|
Check if agitator is
running. Check fuse, power connection, and ground lead.
Increase CCS™
tank pressure.
Add more talc-graphite.
Mix thoroughly.
|
|
No seed flow.
| Plugged seed delivery hose. |
Do not raise and lower
machine continuously without planting seed. Excessive fan stopping
and starting without planting, plugs seed delivery hoses.
Do not operate machine
with nearly all meters out of seed as the seed hoses to rows with
seed plug. Stop and fill machine once the first row runs out of seed.
Adjust CCS™ fan
pressure to recommended level.
|
| |
Cold hydraulic oil.
|
Allow tractor to warm
before setting tank pressure.
|
|

field.
| Frame height is too high turning on fan switch for row
unit between left-hand main frame wheels to open and close.
|
Adjust frame height.
Adjust row unit fan
switch.
|
|
Machine raises slowly.
| CCS™ fan is running during raise cycle.
|
Row unit fan switch
not functioning.
|
| |
Tractor hydraulic flow is insufficient.
|
Increase tractor engine rpm.
Raise planter to approximately 50% height during end
turns to increase raise/lower cycle time. See tractor OM for setting
independent raise/lower detents for SCVs.
|
|
CCS™ seed delivery flow is low.
| Seed hose is pinched. |
Straighten or repair
hose. Keep hoses as horizontal as possible.
|
| |
Foreign material is lodged in hose or manifold.
|
Locate and remove foreign
material blockage.
|
| |
Improper tank pressure.
|
Ensure that tank lids
are installed correctly.
Readjust SCV.
Increase CCS™
tank pressure by 2 in. of pressure.
|
|
CCS™ tank level sensor light does not come on.
| Tank sensor dirty. |
Clean tank sensor. See
Clean Tank Level Sensor in Service and Adjustments section.
|
| |

burned out (unplug all tank level sensors from harness to test).
|
Replace tank low warning
light inside frame control console.
|
|
