Raising Drill (Transport Lift)
Transport Lift is on a dedicated hydraulic circuit. The
center main frame raises and lowers independently of
the opener sub-frames (which are raised and lowered by
the Opener Lift circuit).
Transport Lift is normally used prior to folding and during
rate calibrations. Opener Lift, and not Transport Lift, is
used for headland turns in field operations.
Swing-up channels are used to lock the lift cylinders in
the raised (extended) configuration, preventing settling
during transport, parking, calibrations, servicing and
storage.
NOTE:
Wings flex down before gauge wheels are lifted off the
ground during transport lift.
Transport Lift
1. Raise the openers. See “
2. If the Two Outlet conversion kit is installed, a selector
valve near the hitch must be operated to switch
between Transport Lift and Opener Lift. See “
3. Supply oil to the base (extend) ends of the Transport
Lift cylinders.
4. Swing the locks up and onto the transport lift
cylinders. They are temporarily held in place with
polymer bumpers. They are firmly held in place when
the cylinder is relaxed in step 5.
NOTE:
Bumpers hold the transport lift cylinder lock channels
in place temporarily. The channels will remain in
position when cylinders settle against channels.
5. Slowly reverse the Transport Lift circuit lever until
both lock channels are resting firmly on the rod ends
of the transport lift cylinders. Set circuit lever to off.
