Machine Operation

VACUUM FAN MOTOR VALVE BLOCK ASSEMBLY

A pressure relief valve in the hydraulic circuit prevents build up of oil pressure over 35 PSI in case drain line when
vacuum fan motor is operating. This valve will vent oil outside valve block through a drain hole in the aluminum valve
block. This can occur whenever case drain is improperly connected or pressure in motor circuit builds.

See “Hydraulic Diagram - Vacuum Fan Motor System” in Lubrication and Maintenance section.

Valve block contains a check valve that prevents vacuum fan from operating in wrong direction if pressure is applied to
return side of motor and allows fan to coast to a stop when tractor hydraulic control is returned to neutral position.

NOTE: Fan turns at a reduced speed If reverse pressure is applied.

ROw MARKER OPERATION

The machine is equipped with a single control valve system for the optional row markers.

DANGER!

Contacting or coming close to power lines or other high energy
sources will cause death or serious injury. Keep away from power
lines or high energy sources at all times.

wARNING

Uncontrolled movement of equipment can cause loss of control
and could result in death, serious injury, or damage to property and
equipment. Install all safety pins before transporting equipment.

wARNING

Row marker can lower at any time and could cause death or serious
injury. Stay away from row markers! Install safety lockup device when
not in use.

The single valve marker system uses a sequencing valve which directs hydraulic flow to operate the markers alternately.

With the single valve marker system, both markers can be used at the same time by first lowering one marker and moving

the hydraulic control to the raise position and immediately returning it to the lower position. This will shift the marker

control valve spool and the opposite marker will be lowered.

NOTE: If a marker cylinder has been disconnected or removed for any reason, do not attach the rod end of the

cylinder until the cylinder is cycled several times to remove any air that may be trapped in the system.
