3. Operate the PTO system briefly, or until the tank level stops changing. Refer to Operator Manual for operation
instructions.
4. Recheck the sight gauge. As necessary, add oil to fill line.
Hot Surface and Hot Fluid Hazards:
Asses the tank temperature before adjusting oil level. Draining excess hot oil could result in a severe burn. If the PTO has been
operated recently, the oil temperature could be as high as 180° F (82° C).
Oil and Filter Change
At a regularly scheduled oil change, also change the
filter. At initial system flush, no filter change is required.
1. Wait for the oil to cool before changing the oil.
2. Place a container under the drain plug (1) of the
reservoir, with at least a capacity of:
7 gallons (26 liters).
3. Carefully remove the drain plug.
4. Allow several minutes for oil in the filter to drain into
and out of the reservoir. Change filter as required.
See page 13 for filter size. Seat filter per instructions
on filter.
5. Thread the plug back into the tank. Seating torque is
27 to 43 foot - pounds (37 to 58 N - m).
Flow Control Valve Adjustment
The flow control valve adjusts the percent of PTO pump
output that is supplied to the PL5500 planter hydraulic
motors. The total pump flow, in gpm or liters/min, is also
directly proportional to PTO shaft rpm.
Adjustment typically requires two persons. Pump oil flow
is ideally adjusted with all motors active under simulated
field workload, relying on Magnehelic
®
pressure gauge
readout, and in some cases, seed monitor rpm readout.
Setting Meter Pressurization
Entanglement and Crushing Hazard:
Use extreme caution in the hitch area when the PTO is
operating.
Meter pressurization is set as for a standard PL5500
planter, using the PTO kit valve rather than a lever for a tractor hydraulic remote. This adjustment is normally made
with the seed meters full of seed.
1. Shut off the tractor and remove the key.
2. Consult your PL5500 planter Seed Rate Manual for the correct seed disk, meter inlet shutter setting, and
recommended initial pressure as reported by Magnehelic
®
gauge. Check that the Inlet Butterfly valve handle is
set to 30  . If not, loosen the pivot bolt, reset handle, and Re - secure bolt.
3. Mount the PTO pump. See “ Mount PTO Pump ” on page 17.
4. Consult your PL5500 planter Seed Rate Manual for the intended crop, noting:
•Range and Transmission sprockets required,
• correct Air - Pro
®
seed disk (not shown),
• initial Inlet shutter setting (not shown), and
• initial meter pressurization.
