Monitor Operation
Monitor operation is described in a separate manual
supplied with your YP2425A Planter.
Operations covered in that manual (and therefore not in
this manual) include:
• hydraulic drive control
• seed rate calibration
• planting rate
• fertilizer rate
• setting rate limits and detecting out-of-limits
• GPS integration
• fan rpm
Trailer Operations
Great Plains SML-500, SML-735 and SML-1000
semi-mounted fertilizer carts include a 2-point quick hitch
for planter connection. Great Plains PFC1600 or
PFC2000 fertilizer tank carts require the optional pintle
hitch for the planter (see page 123). Hitching/hook-up
and operating instructions are found in the tank cart
Operator’s Manual.
Uncontrollable Load Hazard:
DO NOT EVER transport the tank cart while hitched to the
planter (in train) over roads if there is any liquid in (either)
tank. Tank(s) must be empty for transport, or tow the tank
separately.
Machine Damage Hazard:
Do not attempt reverse operations with a trailer hitched to the
planter. Trailer direction is extremely difficult to control.
The PFC1600 and PFC2000 tanks include a
ground-driven pump with an electric clutch. The clutch
circuit is controlled by the “Fert.Pump” switch
on the
Clutch Folding Module. Also, as the pump is
ground-driven, it automatically starts and stops with
planter movement.
