Move the handle to the seed pan and pick up seed. You may find you need to re-
adjust the vacuum pressure or vibrator to insure that all needles are picking up
seed. Next move the handle back to the starting position until it “clicks” into
position on the far left above the drop tubes so that the seeds eject. Failure to
bring the lever back to the full stop position will prevent seeds from dropping into
the tubes.
Note that the handle operation is very easy and does not require any undue
pressure on the part of the operator. It is in fact easy to operate this handle with
the finger tips alone it requires so little strength.
Repeat sowing until the full tray is sowed.
After you have finished sowing all your trays, you can use the seed collector to
neatly and completely collect any remaining seed left in the pan.

The seed collector is located on the operators panel at the
left hand side. Turn the vibrator pan on as it is easier to
collect the seed while vibrating. Remove the hose from the
holder, and turn the knob counterclockwise until you hear
vacuum pressure in the hose. Place hose into seed pan
and vacuum seed until all is removed.
To removed seed from seed collector, grasp the lower (clear) container and turn
in clockwise until it separates from the unit. Empty seed into your container and
replace the container back onto the collector.
