12.1 Installation guide (Page 1 of 2)
The Turbo Jet can be used for a wide variety of seeding applications in conjunction with a wide variety of
parent implements.
It is not practical to supply tailored mounting brackets for every implement on the market, and so the final
attachment of the Turbo Jet to the implement is the responsibility of the supplying dealer or end user.
The positioning of the hopper, the spreader plate, the “C” section mounting rails will depend upon the type
and design of parent implement, here are a few basic pointers to ensure the Turbo Jet performs correctly.
Position the Turbo Jet high enough above the implement to facilitate routing of the flexible tubes to the
spreader plates, without severe bends or uphill runs. Try to route all tubes generally downhill. Do not block
the air intakes to the fans under the base plate
Ensure the hopper does not foul wing sections when folded, and the tubes are long enough to fold with the
implement, without a restriction when in work.
Ensure you can access the hopper to fill, and are able to remove the feed block assembly and position the
calibration tray underneath to calibrate or empty. Ensure there is room to undo the fan housing catches and
lift the housing to clean the fans. When filling, emptying or calibrating the Turbo Jet ensure you work safely.
If necessary fabricate and fit a work platform and steps, complete with handrails. The hopper may face
forwards or backwards – whichever offers the easiest mounting and best flexible tube run. Select a strong,
rigid position and use the heavy flat base plate provided to weld or bolt to your implement as per the below
example. If necessary fabricate and fit a work platform and steps, complete with handrails.
