The air pressure is influenced by the speed at which the fan rotates. Adjustments to the fan speed 

will regulate the air pressure. 

 

NOTE:

 THE OIL PRESSURE READING ON THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE (MPa) MAY NOT 

EXCEED 15 MPa. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE: 

Settings from the table must be done while the planter is stationary. No product may flow 

through the pipes while the set up takes place. The air pressure reading will increase and settle at a 

higher value when application starts. The above values serve only as a guideline.

  

 

CARRY OUT THE NECESSARY AIRFLOW TEST (REFER 3.3.4) TO MAKE SURE THE 

PRESSURE IS SUFFICIENT. 

 

For general setup use the following table as a guide for the adjustment of the pressure. Only for 

Equalizer Min-Till air hopper with model numbers specified. 

 

PRESSURE READINGS ARE SPORADIC 

 

Make sure that all pressure gauges are working 100%.  If the planter is attached directly to the 

tractor, and the pressure jumps around, test the various ports in the tractor.  

If the planter is linked to the tractor through a PTO powerpack, make sure the flow regulating valve 

on the pump is not faulty.
