CARE OF THE SPONGE PADS
The sponge pads are easily accessible for maintenance and cleaning by removing the
inspection panel at the bottom of the seed hopper. The seed hopper should be cleaned
thoroughly after use as vermin show little respect for a sponge pad if there is seed
behind it.
To empty the hopper of seed, push the pads away from the seeder units to let the seed
fall through. Do not leave seed lodged between the pad and seeder unit, as this will
distort the pad giving erratic sowing. The sponge pads are replaced as shown below.

SEASONAL STORAGE
The drill should be thoroughly cleaned and lubricated and stored out of the weather.
Look for any unusual wear and remedy the cause. If this requires parts it is best to
order them well in advance of the next sowing season. Check all nuts and bolts for
tightness. Adjust the depth wheels so the weight of the drill is on the tines and not on
the tyres.
