Possible Agricultural Chemical Hazards:
Read and follow all supplier cautions for safe handling of
treated seed.
Irritant and Chronic Exposure Hazards:
Do not mix lubricants into seed with hands or any part of
body. Wear protective equipment. Use tools. See page 116.
11. Pre-mix seed and lubricant. For clean seeds other
than milo, cotton, and sunflowers sprinkle
1 ⁄
4
cup of
Ezee Glide Plus per bushel or unit (60 ml per
35 liters) of seed.
For milo, cotton, and sunflowers double the
application to
1 ⁄
2
cup (or more) per bu or unit (120 ml
per 35 liters) of seed.
Population Risk:
The seed must be properly lubricated, starting with the first
seed through the meter. If unable to pre-mix prior to loading,
pre-mix at least one gallon (4 liters) per hopper, and load this
seed first. Fill the hoppers to half full with fresh seed. Add half
the lubricant and stir. Complete filling the hoppers and
sprinkle the remaining lubricant on top.
12. Add seed and lubricant to hoppers.
Refer to Figure 19 and Figure 20 on page 26
For 1.6 bu hoppers (s/n B1017S+)
13. Close lids. Position front end of lid over front end lip
of hopper. Snap lid firmly in place.
Refer to Figure 21 and Figure 22 on page 27
For 1 bu hoppers (s/n B1016S-)
14. Close lids. With lid tilted up at a slight angle, hook
the two front hinge lugs under the front hopper lip.
Swing down, keeping fingers clear of lug, and latch
the single rear lid lug on rear hopper lip.
Equipment Loss Risk (B1016S- Hoppers):
Check that all 3 lid lugs are completely under the hopper lip,
or the lid may come off in transport.
