Operating the Seeder
Read and understand “General Safety” alerts on page
20 before operating the seeder.
1. Contact your local utility services to mark the location
of any under ground utility services in the area.
Thoroughly inspect the work area yourself for buried
pipelines, sprinkler heads, and any unforeseen
objects underground. Mark any potential hazards.
2. Clear area to be seeded of rocks, branches, and
other foreign objects on top the ground. Mark any
potential hazards.
3. Lock out the small seeds seedbox and/or native seed
box if they are not being used to spread seed. If the
grass seedbox is not being used to spread seed,
place its transmission in neutral.
4. If using the grass seedbox, calibrate seed flow range
and cup setting based on
“Grass Seed Rate
Adjustments” and “Calibrate Grass Seed
Dispersal”
on page 38 in this manual.
5. If using the small seedbox, calibrate seed cup setting
based on
“Small Seeds Seed Rate Adjustments”
and “Calibrate Small Seeds Dispersal” on page 46
in this manual.
6. If using the native seedbox, calibrate seed discharge
rate based on
“Native Seed Rate Adjustments”
and
“Calibrate Native Seed Dispersal” on page 54in this
manual.
7. Make sure each seed cup door handle is set at the
same height across the seeder. The highest position
is usually used for grass seedbox only.
8. Be sure all bolts and nuts are tight.
9. Be certain all guards are in place and secure.
10. Tall grass and weeds should be mowed before
seeding.
11. Never allow anyone to ride on the seeder.
12. Adjust front rollers to desired angle. Make some
practice runs with main drive sprocket locked out to
determine the best roller angle for your application.
13. Lock out the all-seeds drive sprocket if more than one
pass is required to prepare a seed bed before
seeding.
14. Re-engage the All-Seeds drive sprocket when ready
to seed.
15. Do not make turns while seeder is on the ground.
16. Seeding should not be done in wet conditions as soil
will stick to the rollers.
IMPORTANT:
Never make turns with any of the
rollers in contact with the ground. Always lift unit up
off the ground when making turns.
IMPORTANT: Attach seeder to a tractor before
calibrating it for proper seed dispersal rate.
17.
Tow Package Only:
Make sure hydraulic hoses are
attached to the tractor duplex outlet with factory float.
Lower seeder down using factory float and keep
tractor hydraulic control lever in factory float while
seeding seeds.
18. Three Point Hook-up: Lower seeder down until
resting on its rollers.
19. At first, begin seeding at a slow forward speed and
increase speed until desired speed is achieved.
Maximum speed will vary according to soil
conditions.
20. After seeding the first 10 or 15 feet, stop and check to
see that the seeder is adjusted properly.
IMPORTANT: Attach hydraulic hoses only to the
tractor hydraulics with float capabilities.
Tractor
hydraulics for the seeder must be locked into
float position while lowering the seeder and
while seeding or the seeder can be damaged.
