Seed Pool Recovery
When a meter has been starved of seed, back-flow of air
through the open shutter reduces delivery air flow. This
causes seed delivery to be slow. If you start or resume
planting with an empty seed pool, the delivery flow may
be too low to keep the meter supplied. The steps below
quickly “prime” the meter by rebuilding the seed pool.
Refer to Figure 113 (which depicts a recovery after an
incidence of bridging at air release screen)
1. Close the shutter . This stops the air back-flow.
2. Clear the bridge or blockage that caused the
meter to run empty.
3. With the fan running, listen for seed to fall into the
inlet.
4. Wait for seed fall to taper off and stop.
5. Open the shutter to the operating setting.
6. Start or resume planting.
