Adjust Butterfly Valve
During this step, the Blast Gate should remain 100% closed. The Butterfly Valve will be adjusted slowly
closed until just a few whole seeds end up in the dust bucket. To determine this, at the end of each run,
remove the dust bucket and view the amount of whole seed kernels in the bucket. If none, slightly open the
Butterfly Valve and run again. If too many seeds are in the dust bucket, slightly close the Blast Gate and
run again. Repeat this process until satisfied.
Adjust Blast Gate
During this step, the Butterfly will remain in the same position as set in step 2. The Blast Gate will be slowly
opened until the amount of dust escaping from the seed conditioner assembly is minimal. While the unit is
running, and seed is flowing through the seed conditioner, observe the amount of dust. Slowly open the
Blast Gate until the amount of dust is minimal.
