PRE-START CHECK
The following safety check should be made to ensure operator safety:
1. Check condition of all mounting hardware that secures HydroSeeder
®
to the carrier
vehicle.
2. Ensure that all guards are in place.
EQUIPMENT CHECK
Equipment check should be made with the engine OFF and all
rotating parts stopped. Failure to comply could result in death or
serious injury.
1. Verify that the tool kit contains all the prescribed items. See PARTS SECTION.
2. Inspect the slurry tank for foreign objects. See steps 2 and 3 in Section
IV. MAINTENANCE of the HYDROSEEDER
®
SAFETY SUMMARY SECTION.
3. Check fuel level. Fill if necessary.
4. Check hydraulic oil level and fill if necessary. See HYDRAULIC SYSTEM for oil
specifications.
5. Check engine oil level and fill if necessary. For oil type, refer to the engine manual.
6. Inspect air cleaner for dust and dirt, clean if necessary.
7. Secure the tank drain plug in the drain pipe, located in the center of the bumper.
8. Check to make sure the pump drain plugs are in place.
9. Lubricate equipment – See LUBRICATION AND FLUIDS CHART.
A. Each lubrication point on the
machine is marked with a decal.
B. Check automatic pressure
lubricator at pump. If the stem is
fully extended, with thumb nut all
the way up, the automatic pressure
lubricator contains lubricant. If not,
lubricant must be replaced by the
following procedure (See Figure 1):
1. Turn thumb nut clockwise until
stem rises to maximum height.
2. Remove cap and fill cap with
sodium- (water soluble) base
grease (FINN part number
000698). DO NOT use lithium-
base (chassis lube) grease.
3. Replace
cap.
4. Turn thumb nut
counterclockwise until thumb
nut is at the top of the stem.
The spring and pressure disk
in the lubricator forces grease,
under pressure, to the pump
seal.
