Lubrication and Maintenance
1. Replace 10-micron spin-on filters on each wing annually.
2. Fill system with SAE 10W-20 multigrade wide temperature range transmission hydraulic fluid. Reservoir capacity
is approximately 10 gal (37.8L).
3. Start system and run with tractor at idle and fans turned off for 1-2 minutes. Switch fans to full speed and run with
tractor at idle for 1-2 minutes.
4. Check reservoir fluid level and fill as required. Hydraulic fluid level should be within 1"-2" from top of reservoir after
pump has run and hydraulic hoses have been primed to allow fluid to expand when heated.

Digital vacuum gauge is factory calibrated. However,
vacuum varies throughout manifold system and it may
be necessary to adjust digital readout to match actual
vacuum at meter.
Load seed discs with seed and compare digital vacuum
gauge readouts to reading taken from analog gauges
or a hand held gauge at several meters along length of
planter. Elbow connections located on covers of seed
meters allow testing of meter vacuum levels without
removing vacuum hoses.
Oil cooler location
nOTe: periodically check and clean oil coolers.
If there is more than 1" or 2" (H
2
O) difference, adjust digital gauge by inserting a small flat bladed screwdriver into
opening on back of digital gauge housing and turning potentiometer until digital gauge displays vacuum present at
meter. Compare readings at 10" and 20" of vacuum.
