Ezee Glide Plus Lubricant
To maximize performance of Great Plains metering
systems, it is imperative to use only “Ezee Glide Plus”
lubricant. “Ezee Glide Plus” Talc-Graphite lubricant is
mandatory for all seeds, especially treated or inoculated
seed.
Thorough mixing of seed and added lubricant is
required.
Recommended usage:
For clean seeds other than milo and cotton sprinkle
one cup of Ezee Glide Plus Talc per 4 bushels or units
(170 ml per 100 liters) of seed.
For milo and cotton double the application to
one cup (or more) per 2 bu. or units (335 ml per
100 liters) of seed.
Adjust this rate as necessary so all seeds become
coated while avoiding an accumulation of lubricant in the
bottom of the hopper.
For seed with excessive treatment, or for humid planting
environments, increase the rate as needed for smooth
meter operation.
Irritation and Chronic Exposure Hazard:
Wear gloves. DO NOT use hands or any part of your body to
mix seed lubricant. Wear a respirator when transferring and
mixing. Avoid breathing lubricant dust. Not an acute hazard.
May cause mechanical eye or skin irritation in high
concentrations. As with all mineral spills, minimize dusting
during clean-up. Prolonged inhalation may cause lung injury.
Product can become slippery when wet.
Finger Pickup Meters
EZ-Slide Graphite Powder
821-042C bottle, 1 pound (450 grams)
821-060C jug, 5 pound (2.3 kg)
For Finger Pick Up Meters Only
Use only approved Graphite Powder available from
Great Plains Mfg. Inc. or Precision Planting to ensure
proper lubrication of finger pickup corn seed meters.
Recommended usage:
For finger pickup meters, add one tablespoon (15 ml) of
graphite for each unit of seed corn (80,000 kernels).
In high humidity conditions, or seeds with heavy seed
treatments, increase the application to two tbsp (30ml).
If delivery of seed from the hopper to the finger meter is
an issue, add “Ezee Glide Plus” talc and graphite blend
at a rate of one cup (237 ml) per 4 units of seed. Adjust
until issue is resolved.
Irritation and Chronic Exposure Hazard:
Wear gloves. DO NOT use hands or any part of your body to
mix seed lubricant. Wear a respirator when transferring and
mixing. Avoid breathing lubricant dust. Not an acute hazard.
May cause mechanical eye or skin irritation in high
concentrations. As with all mineral spills, minimize dusting
during clean-up. Prolonged inhalation may cause lung injury.
