breaks, replace with Great Plains part number

If an identical Grade 5 bolt is not immediately
available, temporarily substitute a metric M12 x 1.5 x
6.4 mm Class 8.8 bolt and nut.
If conditions are causing frequent shears, keep spare
bolts in the storage holes of the marker shear base.
Marker Disk Lubrication
If the grease seal cap (1) for the marker disk hub
bearings is damaged or missing, disassemble and
clean the hub. Repack with grease and install a new
seal or grease cap.
In-Cab Consoles
Component Damage Risk
When cleaning the planter, to avoid damage
do not powerwash on or around these
electrical component including the in-cab
consoles.
Avoid the direct spray of water on in-cab consoles as
it could compromise the console housing and cause
damage. Keep all electrical connections free of dirt
and grease and do not tightly bind electrical cords.
Disconnect the electrical harness whenever parked.
Between planting seasons, store any in-cab
consoles inside a dry environment free from pests,
temperature variances.
Material Clean-Out
Possible Dust and Chemical Fume Hazards
Clean-out can create dust and fumes from
seed residue and seed treatment. Wear a
respirator and any other protective equipment
specified by the seed and/or seed treatment
supplier.
Entrapment and Suffocation Hazards
A seed hopper that is full, or appears full, can
be an entrapment hazard. You can sink all the
way into the grain and suffocate in a matter of
seconds. Never enter a seed bulk hopper for
loading, unloading, or routine maintenance.
Keep lid tightly closed during operation.
Clean-Out Door Damage Risk
Verify clean-out doors are closed before
folding or unfolding the planter to avoid
damage to the doors.
Planter Damage Risk
Do remove the strainer from the hopper as it
prevents larger foreign matter from clogging
the air system.
When planting is completed, it is common for some
seed to remain in the bulk seed hopper, airbox, hose
lines, and meters.
The following sections will complete a system
material clean-out:
Bulk seed hopper clean-out
Air box clean-out
Air system clean-out
Seed meter clean-out
Seed tube clean-out
Fertilizer clean-out, if installed
If using the probox seed box, remove the probox
seed box, if desired or slide door closed before
cleaning the rest of the material from the planter.
Bulk Seed Hopper Clean-Out
Possible Dust and Chemical Fume Hazards
Clean-out can create dust and fumes from
seed residue and seed treatment. Wear a
respirator and any other protective equipment
specified by the seed and/or seed treatment
supplier.
When planting is completed, it is common for some
seed to remain in the seed hoppers, air box, hose
lines, and meters.
