SEED METER CLEANOUT
NOTE: Use of damaged seed or seed containing foreign material will cause plugging of seed cell orifices and
require more frequent seed meter cleanout to prevent underplanting.
Thorough seed meter cleanout is important to maintain genetic purity.
1. Disengage seed drive and remove seed hopper and meter.
2. Dump seed from right rear corner of hopper into a container.
3. Lay hopper on its right side. Push release button and rotate seed meter vacuum cover clockwise to align keyhole
slots with bolt heads. Lift off cover.
4. Rotate seed disc hub clockwise to unlock and remove seed disc.
5. Empty meter.
6. Thoroughly inspect meter to ensure all seed is removed.
7. Replace seed disc. Install vacuum cover.
4. Adjust vacuum level to initial setting according to tables on page.
NOTE: Vacuum reading will be much lower when seed disc cells are empty. Load all seed cells before setting
vacuum level.
NOTE: Operate vacuum fan 3-5 minutes to bring oil up to normal operating temperature prior to making final
vacuum level adjustment.
