3. Measure and mark expected hose length. Refer to
tables beginning on page 30 for hose-length
guidelines. For example, on an implement with
6 inch (15.2 cm) rows, the hose that connects
tower 1, port 1 to the 13th opener should be about
71 inches (180 cm) long.
4. Insert uncut hose into port 1. Push hose into port
until seated against stop.
5. Route the hose to the opener called for in the table.
Continuing the example from step 3, connect
tower 1, port 1, to the 13th opener from the left.
6. Route hose over implement frame. Note that some
hoses connect openers and towers on different
frame sections. Route seed hoses to prevent rubbing
on sharp edges or damage when implement is
raised, lowered, folded or unfolded.
7. Allow enough hose slack for implement folding and
down-flex.
8. When you are satisfied you have the proper hose
length, cut hose.
Refer to Figure 34 (CTA4000) or Figure 35 (CTA4000HD)
9.
Connect hose boot to hose by screwing hose
into the boot, then connect to the seed tube by
pushing the boot over the lip of the seed tube cap
.
10. Repeat steps for each tower port, working clockwise
around tower. When hoses have been installed in all
ports, tighten bolts on tower assembly.
11. Proceed with next tower, moving right. When all
hoses have been installed, check that seed hoses
are long enough for wing flex and short enough to
prevent hose damage. Hoses may need to be
removed, shortened and re-inserted.
