Great Plains Mfg., Inc.
When drawbar pin and safety chain have been installed
and jack has been removed the hydraulic hoses may be
connected. See your Great Plains dealer if you require
new quick coupler ends for your hoses.
Make sure that each pair of hoses connected to your trac-
tor outlets are from the same circuit (lift, fold, or fan)
Hook up the electric clutch cable to the clutch harness on
the tractor.
If the tractor does not have a clutch harness installed it
must be installed now. Attach the switch box solidly to the
tractor in a convenient location not exposed to rain. Attach
the power leads to a 12 volt D.C. power supply, polarity is
not critical. Be sure that the wire is safely routed where it
will not be pinched or rubbed through. Before drilling any
holes always check on the back side to make sure no hid-
den components will be damaged by the drill.
Safety Lights
The light package your drill comes equipped with requires
that your tractor be wired for the standard 7-pin electrical
connector which will work with the tractor’s flashers and
signals. All that should be necessary is to plug in the con-
nector.
If your tractor is not equipped with this connector please
consult your dealer for installation to tractor manufacturers
specifications.
Attaching 1150 Air Drill Cart to
Great Plains 34’ or 45’ Implement
!
DANGER!
You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed between
the tractor and the drill. Do not stand or place any part of your
body between the cart and implement while hooking up the drill.
Block the implement cart links (#1) so that the center of the
pin hole is approximately 22 3/4” above ground. If the cart
sling is present, pull it back towards implement to keep it
out of the way until ready to attach. Pull all seed and hy-
draulic hoses back away from the implement hitch to pre-
vent damage. Line the cart up squarely in front of the
center of the implement. Back the cart up until both of the
cart links are between the hitch plates on the cart frame
and the pin holes are aligned. Re-adjust the height of links
by changing the blocks if required. When the holes are
aligned place the cart link pin (#2) in position, secure the
cart link pin with the 5/16” dia. lynch pins (#3). Be sure that
the tab on the link pin securely engages the square hole in
the hitch plate, refer to Figure 3-1.
Refer to Figure 3-2:
Make sure that the cart sling is connected to the pin on the
cylinder lift arm then align the top hole with the hole in the
cart sling support plates on the back of the cart frame. In-
stall the cart sling pin (#2) and secure it with the 1/4” x 2”
cotter pins (#1). Be sure that the legs on the cotter pins are
spread apart.
Attach the 2 1/2” primary hoses from implement distributor
towers to metering box outlet tubes. Hoses should be con-
nected left-to-right on the box in the same order as the
towers are installed on the implement. Route the hoses
above the axle tube cross member on the cart and allow
only enough slack for implement to be raised and lowered
fully without binding.
