INSTALLING 2940 AIR COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY
Begin by mounting the 2940 Compressor:
Step 1: Every planter/tractor combination will contain its own unique situations in regard
to mounting the 2940 Compressor Assembly for clearance and accessibility.
YOU SHOULD EXERCISE YOUR OWN BEST JUDGEMENT TO FIT YOUR SITUATION.
Begin by locating a suitable mounting location for the compressor assembly. Placement
of the compressor assembly will vary on the make and model of the planter. Use mounts
supplied or
depending on application different mounts may need to be built. NOTE:
Be sure to check clearance of compressor assembly in all locations, especially noting
tractor tires and folding/unfolding the planter for transport mode and 2-point top link.
Next, if using the 2940-101 compressor, connect the 2940-150 Compressor Power
Cable and 2940-166 VDM Power Cable on the 12V power source from the tractor battery.
If using the 2940-103, only the 2940-166 VDM Power Cable will be required to be
installed on the 12V power source. After cables are properly installed on 12V power
source, safely route the power cables to the rear of the tractor in a manner to protect the
cables from heat and any pinch points, securing at rear of tractor. The 2940 Air
Compressor Assembly requires mounting with access to 12V power from the tractor.
Optional power cable extensions are available.
Step 2: Visually inspect the proposed mounting location for structural stability and to find
signs of wear in that location. Possible obstructions to be aware of include marker arms,
liquid fertilizer tanks, rear tires (duals especially) during tight turns, etc…
Step 3: Mark out the position of the Compressor then complete a cycle of
folding/unfolding to transport mode and raising/lowering of the planter; as well as, driving
in a tight circle in one or both directions, in planting position, to verify or identify
obstructions.
Step 4: Once the compressor is mounted, repeat the previous process very cautiously to
once again verify that the compressor is clear of obstructions.
Use the illustration with dimensions to identify
possible mounting locations on your
specific planter. Both the 2940-101 and
2940-103 require 4” of clearance from each
side. (top, bottom, front, back, both sides)
