Cleaning the Needles

If a seed, soil, or other debris should collect in the needle and block it, this
machine is equipped with a needle cleaner.

Remove the blocked needle turning counterclockwise. Place needle onto needle
cleaner located at the base of the operator control panel in the lower right corner.
Hold needle into place but DO NOT PUT FINGERS OR HANDS ON TOP OF
THE NEEDLE as it is positive air and can cause injury. Slightly turn the needle
cleaning knob counterclockwise until debris clears from the needle. You should
not require more than one half turn to clear debris from the needle.

If the needle fails to clear on the needle cleaner, it may be
necessary to soak the needle in warm water for about one hour,
then try cleaning it on the needle cleaner again.

The needle cleaner is located at the back and to the right of the
machine to prevent any blowing debris from blowing into

operators eyes. For this reason, operator should not move from his normal
operating position when cleaning needles.
