Operating Instructions
Transport
Loss of Control Hazard:
Ensure that the towing vehicle is adequate for the task. Using
an inadequate tow vehicle is extremely unsafe, and can result
in loss of control, serious injury and death.
The planter can weigh up to 28,000 pounds (12800 kg),
depending on configuration and seed load. The tractor MUST
be rated for the load. If the tractor is not rated for at least
28,000 pounds, calculate or obtain a scale weight of the
planter and cart. See chart below for typical configuration
weights. Do not tow if planter exceeds the load rating of the
vehicle.
Loss of Steering Control Hazard:
Never transport with top link of 3-point link connected. When
the top link is adjusted for field work, some planter mainframe
weight is carried by the top link, which can dangerously
reduce tractor front wheel traction and steering control.
Do not exceed 3 mph (5 km/h) in reverse. At
8.0 mph
(12.9 km/h) in re
verse the planter
steering disengages,
resulting in a sudden sharp turn. Major equipment damage is
certain.
Loss of Control Hazard / Major Damage Risks:
Do not exceed 20 mph (32 km/h) when driving straight and
forward.
The planter is extremely heavy, and can cause “over-steer”
with most tractors. Do not exceed 13 mph (22 km/h) in turns.
Reduction of Control Risk:
Seed may be loaded prior to travel, but increases stopping
distance, increases the need for caution in turns and braking,
and increases tire wear.
