4010 ATD LT ASSY/OPER/PARTS MANUAL (74303) 12/08
If main frame or wing depth needs to be
changed to be level, do not add or remove
stop collars from that cylinder. Readjust
the various adjustment anchors.
With a sequencing lift system if one cylinder
is stopped by use of additional stop collars
all cylinders in the circuit will stop and the
depth settings on the remaining cylinders in
the circuit will be impacted.
All lift cylinders
should use the same combination or
amount of stop collars
.
Move through the field and observe the
general operation of the unit. Check the
movement of the rear packers arms. If there
is excessive vertical movement or bouncing
of the packers wheels it may require that the
packer compression spring be tightened. It is
generally best to have limited pivoting of the
packer arms when seeding. Arms should only
rotate when encountering a large soil mound
or rocks. Tighten the lock nut on the packer
spring to increase the holding force.
As with all machinery it will be necessary to
check the tightness of all hardware after 4-6
hours of use. As the various components seat
there will be parts that need to be adjusted.
Hardware that is retaining parts that do not
rotate or move should be checked after the
fi rst day of use and weekly after that. Parts
such as packer wheel pivots or parts that
need to wear in or seat should be checked
and adjusted more frequently.
Refer to the GREASING information on Page
44 for grease locations and frequency.
TIRE INFLATION
The front lift and rear transport tires (31x13.5
12 ply) should be infl ated to 60-65 PSI. If
there appears to be sidewall fl ex in these lift
tires the pressure can be increased to 70-75
PSI.
The rear packer tires can be set at 15-20 PSI
depending on packing and load requirements.
A lower setting will allow the tires to pack a
somewhat wider area and shed mud, but
there must be suffi cient tire pressure to limit
sidewall fl ex and support the rear weight of
the unit. Set initial pressure to 15 PSI and
increase or decrease as conditions dictate.
