DANGER!
To avoid serious injury or death from crushing, make sure cyl-
inder locks channels are in place, implement is sufficiently
blocked up, and tractor is shut off with the key removed before
attempting to route hoses to openers.
NOTE: Seed hoses must be routed to prevent them
from rubbing on sharp edges or being damaged
when the implement is raised, lowered, folded, or un-
folded. Hoses must be pushed fully into distribution
tower ports until they are seated against the stop.
