SEEDER MAINTENANCE

(Supplied from Gandy)

• Remove bottom and rotors using snap latches, and wing nuts securing bearing re-

tainers. Clean all surfaces.

• Lightly oil bearings periodically, more often if metering material with fines as pow-

der may work into bearings.

• Some materials may build up on the hopper bottom, especially when atmospheric

humidity is high. It may be wise to remove slide from bottom for cleaning. To re-
move slide, remove the four nuts, nylon washers and slide hanger.

• Re-assemble slide onto hopper after cleaning. For proper slide tension, gently drive

the hanger to the left, using a screw driver against the tab at the right end of the
hanger. When the end of the hanger lines up with the scribed line on the hopper
bottom, slide tension is correct. Bottom is ready for reinstallation.
