Seed Tube Clean-Out
Newer planters include a seed tube brush (page 120).
This brush removes build-up of dust and seed treatments
that can cause false skip indications at the seed sensor.
With the planter raised, insert the brush from the bottom
of the side tube. You can also remove the meter, and
insert the brush from the top of the seed tube.
