For Finger Pick Up Meters Only
Use only approved Graphite Powder available from Great
Plains Mfg. Inc. or Precision Planting to ensure proper
lubrication of finger pickup corn seed meters.
Recommended usage:
For finger pickup meters, add 5 ml (one teaspoon) of
graphite to the top of each seed hopper.
In high humidity conditions, or seeds with heavy seed
treatments, increase the application to 10 ml (2 tsp.).

Wear gloves. DO NOT use hands or any part of your body to
mix seed lubricant. Wear a respirator when transferring and
mixing. Avoid breathing lubricant dust. Not an acute hazard.
May cause mechanical eye or skin irritation in high
concentrations. As with all mineral spills, minimize dusting
during clean-up. Prolonged inhalation may cause lung injury.

accumulation of lubricant in the bottom of the hopper.
For seed with excessive treatment, or for humid planting
environments, increase the rate as needed for smooth
meter operation.
