Setting Hydraulic Down-Pressure
1.
Lower openers to the ground. Lock hydraulic lever
forward for constant hydraulic flow.
You must lock hydraulic lever forward. See “
2.
Release lock disk
. Turn knob
on
pressure-control valve while watching pressure
gauge, turn knob until gauge shows desired
pressure. Turn clockwise to increase pressure. Turn
counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
There is one pressure-control valve for openers on
the center section and one for openers on the wing
sections of the drill.
Refer to the chart on page 50 for approximate force
at the openers for a given pressure setting. As a
general starting point, set hydraulic down pressure to
1200 psi. For most field conditions, adjust down
pressure between 1200 and 1800 psi.
Population Risk:
Do not operate at pressures so high that the gauge wheels
loose traction, or are off the ground, resulting in skips and
poor seed metering.
3.
Once pressure is set, lock knob with lock disk. If
using a non-active hydraulic system to run drill,
unlock the hydraulic remote lever and return it to
neutral.
Machine Damage Risk:
Open-center tractors and tractors with fixed-displacement
pumps are not designed to provide a continuous supply of
pressurized oil to remote valves. Locking hydraulic lever
forward on these tractors can cause overheating of hydraulic
oil and tractor damage. After setting opener down pressure,
always return hydraulic lever to neutral.
