5. At the rear of the seeder, mount the L-shaped
bracket to the end plate with a 5/8-11 NC x 1 1/2”
capscrew and locknut as shown. The small shoulder
on the bracket should butt up against the end plate of
the seeder frame.
6. On top of this bracket mount the pickup with two
#8-32 x 1 1/4” machine screws, flat washers,
lockwashers, and nuts.
Extend its longer wire up toward the side of the seedbox
to meet the wire from the acre meter. Attach its shorter
wire to the ground on the bracket. (Remove paint under
the terminal to ensure a good electrical connection.)
7. Press or slide Magnet Wheel onto Drive Shaft until it
is vertically centered with the Pick-up Switch.
8. Adjust the Pick-up Switch so the centerline of Magnet
Wheel and Pick-up Switch are horizontally and
vertically aligned with a maximum 1/8” gap between
them. Firmly tighten Switch to bracket and tighten set
screw (if present) in Wheel.
Alignment of Pick-up Switch and Magnet Wheel is
critical. Improper alignment will cause the Acre Meter to
record acres erratically or not at all.
9. Route Pick-up Switch Cable up to the Acre Meter
Cable and connect mating plugs.
10. Securely fasten cable to frame using the adhesive
Cable Tie Mounting Base and Cable Ties to prevent
cable from becoming entangled or rubbing on moving
parts.
