PREPARING PLANTER FOR STORAGE

Store planter in a dry sheltered area if possible.

Remove all trash that may be wrapped on sprockets or shafts and remove dirt that can draw and hold
moisture.

Clean all drive chains and coat with a rust preventative spray, or remove chains and submerge in oil.

Lubricate planter and row units at all lubrication points.

Inspect planter for parts that are in need of replacement and order during “off” season.

Make sure seed and granular chemical hoppers are empty and clean.

Clean seed meters and store in a dry, rodent-free area.

Remove seed discs from brush-type seed meters, clean and store meters with discs removed.

Grease or paint disc openers/blades and row marker disc blades to prevent rust.

Flush liquid fertilizer tanks, hoses and metering pump with clean water. See “Piston Pump Storage” if
applicable.
