TROUBLE SHOOTING
How to Check the Drill Scale after Installation
For the first test, lift the drill, planter or seeder all the way up, to a level area. Put 200-250 pounds of weight on
the right side, then compare it to the left. Both sides should be within four to six pounds of each other.
•
If the weight is not within the four to six pound range, inspect the scale system for loose or misalign
mounts.
The second test is to lift the drill, planter or seeder to a level area and zero the scale. Lift the
drill/planter/seeder up and down two to three times, checking to see if the scale zeros out. Each time the scale
is in the up position, it should be within four to six pounds.

***The example we are using is 2000 lbs of seed evenly filled in both hoppers. There is 25 lbs of seed left from
the last fill.
Push the “Start” button. The screen will show zero, and the arrow is now pointing to “Net” on the screen. This
is a temporary zero point to start loading the planter with seed. You will now fill 1000 lbs of seed into the left
hopper.
Push the “Stop” button, the readout now reads 1025 lbs of seed inventory.
Push the “Start” button again. The screen will say zero again. Load another 1000 lbs of seed into the right
side.
Now push “Stop” and the screen will read 2025 lbs of seed. The number will decrease as the seed is planted.
