Refer to Figure 24 on page 24 and Figure 26 on page 25
80. Select a reel of:
817-039C PVC SEED HOSE 1 IN/FT
Measure and mark the first expected hose length.
Refer to tables beginning on page 26 for hose-length
guidelines. For example: on 7.5in (19.2cm) rows, the
hose connecting Tower 1, Port 1 to the 6th opener
should be about 69in (175cm) long.
IMPORTANT !
Do not cut hose until routed through implement.
Lengths in table are approximate. Actual lengths may
vary slightly from implement to implement.
Make clean cuts. Any snags or frays at the tower end
can imbalance seed delivery.
81. Route the hose from the opener called for in the
table. Continuing the example from step 80, connect
tower 1, port 1, to the 6th opener from the left.
82. Route hose through implement frame. Route seed
hoses to prevent rubbing on sharp edges or damage
when implement is raised, lowered, folded or
unfolded.
83. Allow enough hose slack for implement raising, fold-
ing and down-flex.
84. Insert uncut hose into tower port.
Push hose into port until seated against stop.
85. When you are satisfied you have the proper hose
length, cut hose at mark near row unit.
Refer to Figure 28
86. Select one:
816-352C AIR DRILL DD OPNR HOSE BOOT
Connect hose boot to hose by screwing hose
into the boot, then connect to the seed tube by
pushing the boot over the lip of the seed tube cap.
87. Repeat step 80 through step 86 for each tower port,
working clockwise around tower. When hoses have
been installed in all ports, tighten bolts on tower
assembly.
88. Proceed with next tower, moving right. When all
hoses have been installed, check that seed hoses
are long enough for wing flex and short enough to
prevent hose damage. Hoses may need to be
removed, shortened and re-inserted.
