   A - Knockout Wheel

   B - Locking Bolt

   C - Wiper Assembly

   D - Seed Knockout Assembly

   The seed knockout wheel (A) is used to ensure that certain types of seeds are fully released from the vacuum hole. The protuberances of the wheel slot into the holes of the vacuum holes, knocking out all seeds and foreign matter present.

   NOTE: Seed knockout wheel is necessary for planting sorghum. Sorghum usually has an irregular shape, thereby making it more probable that the seed will lodge in the vacuum hole.

   Open vacuum meter.
