Call-Outs
Pre-Delivery and Other Options
If you are installing the Air-Pro
®
PTO Pump on a
newly-shipped planter, it may be more convenient to
install the PTO pump system during the pre-delivery
setup:
• Install the PTO pump system after installing the
tongue (pull-type only). The tongue must be in place
for hose re-routing.
• Install the PTO pump system after mounting a fertilizer
sub-frame (option, pull-type only). This sub-frame
must be in place for flow control valve mounting, and in
some cases, reservoir mounting.
• Install the PTO pump system before installing
frame-mounted row options. This improves foot room
and reduces sharp object hazards while working near
tool bars.
• Install the PTO pump system before installing
row-mounted coulters or row cleaners. This improves
foot room and reduces sharp object hazards while
working near tool bars.
• Install the PTO pump system before installing
markers. This eliminates an overhead sharp object
hazard, and improves working space at the
mainframe.
Prepare Planter
1. Read and understand “Important Safety
Information” starting on page 1.
2. Position the planter on a level surface in a well
lighted location suitable for the installation. A clear
surface beneath makes it easier to recover any
dropped parts. If markers are already installed,
choose an area with enough room to unfold them.
3. Configure the planter for Parking, as instructed in
the planter Operator manual.
4. If markers are already installed, unfold them.
5. Unhitch the planter.
