Inspect Meter Gaps
If meter gaps are already sealed with silicone sealant,
continue at “Install Hopper Dividers” on page 53.
Refer to Figure 105 and Figure 106
The gap between the top saddle on the meter, and the
bottom of the hopper shell, is sealed at step 247 on
page 54, but needs to be minimized prior to divider
installation.
239. At each fertilizer meter, inspect the meter gap. The
meters may have shifted on the hoppers during
shipment.
Refer to Figure 107
240. If any gaps are excessive (more than is easily
sealed with a bead of silicone sealant), loosen the 8
or 12 nuts
that secure the hoppers to the
meters, re-seat the hoppers, and re-tighten the nuts.
241. De-grease the meter-hopper gap areas. Allow any
fluids to dry before sealing.
242. Also clean and de-grease the top front center of the
fertilizer hopper lids.
