Fan Circuit Operation
Two hydraulic hoses serve the fan, and must be properly
connected for the fan to operate in the correct
direction , and at recommended speeds. See
1. Connect the motor return line , to remote circuit
return (Extend port) or to sump.
The planter includes a pressure-relief QD coupler for
the return line. This prevents motor damage in the
event that the return line is not connected, or is
connected incorrectly; however, an oil spill results if
the return line is not correctly connected.
2. Connect the motor inlet line to a tractor remote
capable of 20 liters per minute. If a priority remote is
available, use it for the fan.
3. The fan hydraulic circuit includes a check valve ,
which provides a relief path for oil at motor shutoff.
If the fan is connected in reverse, flow through this
valve results in low fan rpm, providing strong
indication reversed connection.
Correct fan direction is shown at . If reversed fan is
suspected, observe it during shutoff, as the direction
of motion is easier to see at lower rpms as it slows to
a stop (initial startup is virtually instantaneous,
making observation at start difficult).
Fan speed is controlled by the tractor circuit and butterfly
valve (and not the seed monitor).
You may stop the fan by setting the circuit to Neutral or
Float. The check valve slows the blades to a stop by
locally recirculating the oil.

If the fan is connected in reverse, it may not run at all (due to
no oil source at the return connection). If oil is present, oil
bypass at the check valve
prevents the fan from reaching
high rpm. A reversed fan may send some air to the meters, but
is incapable of providing reliable air flow for planting.

Fan speed can change as oil heats to operating temperature.
Re-check meter pressurization more often during early
operations.
