i'MPhLLEH iNSPbCliON We have been issued with an advisory by the manufacturers of the fans. Please take the following.request as a mandatory safety' action. 1. All new fans should be inspected after one days usage to check the integrity of the central impeller weld as indicated on the illustration opposite. 2„ If there is sny evidence of stress cracking or weld fai lure do not use the fan unt i I a new umpener has been fitted. 3. Insoect the fan on an annual basis thereafter. From, the illustration opposite, you will see that there are two types of impeller, A and B. Please repant any failures, stating...

2/.Remove outer cover(T)by removing 8 screws (2) 3/.Carefully clean the curved area marked(3)on the drawing round the entire circumference. 4/.Using a bright light, carefully inspect the clean area(3)for signs of stress or weld cracking. 5/.IF ANY CRACKING IS FOUND, STOP USING THE FAN UNTIL THE IMPELLER IS REPLACED. 6/.Please note whether Design A or B impeller is fitted, by reference to the line of rivets at (4)

PRELIMINARY CHECKS 1- Number metering units Mark identification number on both halves of each metering unit and on each singulator. (Note: singulators are factory calibrated to ensure all units perform thpv rrmcf rpmain fittorl tn fhn i mite 2. Check row units Raise machine off the ground, then check: a) Wheels: check all wheels rotate: check adjustment of scrapers and cleaners, b) Pivots: check nuts and bolts are tight: check chassis will pivot freely, c) Clod deflectors: check that blade slides freely in track: then pin out of work. 3. Check P.T.O. shaft Start P.T.O., raise machine fully. Adjust...

PREPARATION FOR WORK - IN THE YARD 1. Check coulters Check required coulters are fitted correctly. For detailed instructions, see Page 10 (COULTER FITTING INSTRUCTIONS). Clip each metering unit into its unit carrier. 2. Check row widths Lower machine to ground, draw forward and check row widths at coulter tips. 3. Clean metering units Empty' seed from hopper, using removable drain plug. Remove hopper side of metering units and ensure the unit is absolutely clean. Use soft brush to clean vacuum galleries B; dry doth to clean face of gallery block; air line to blow dust and seed dressing from inaccessible...

Coulter Depth; -set unit earners to give a sowing depth ■ slightly shallower than the required nominal drilling depth, (Note; -field adjustment of sowing depth is most easily’ achieved by progressively adjusting coulters downwards until until the- desired sowing depth is achieved) . :mpty seed from hoppers, before transporting to field

FiELD OPERATION ]. Tractor linkage control and coulters a) ALWAYS lower and raise machine on the move to prevent coulter blockage, b) ALWAYS raise machine and check coulters for blockage if you have stopped for any reason whilst c) ALWAYS move tractor linkage control lever to 'fully down' position when going into work to ensure adequate land wheel drive, d) ALWAYS raise machine fully when turning at headlands. L Tractor forward speed a) ALWAYS operate at the recommended forward speed. L Hoppers and transport a) ALWAYS fill hoppers with seed to the same level, and check periodically that...

COULTER FITTING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Fitting 2 or 3 Line Coulter and Seed Guide a) Fit coulter over the bottom of the unit body casting, align the holes A and retain with the fasteners supplied, b) Pivot the rear of the coulter upwards to achieve the minimum gap B between the underside of the body casting and the top of the seed chutes at the rear of the coulter, 1 mm maximum, c) Holding the couiter in position, tighten the fasteners until the coulter is firmly clamped in place, d) Fit seed guide C to the hopper side of the metering unit locating the dowel on the guide through the hole in the...

2. Fitting Single Line Coulter a) The coulter tip is clamped to the bottom of the unit body casting between stainless steel clamping plates, by two pairs of socket head screws. When fitting, ensure that the vertical rear face of the coulter tip locates firmly against the cut-outs in the clamping plates as shown, to prevent soil entering the seed outlet area, b) When changing from 2 or 3 line coulter to single line, remove the seed guide from the hopper side of the metering unit to allow seed to fall centrally to the furrow bottom.
