Meter in use clogged Clean-out meter.
Fan speed too low Increase fan speed to recommended
range (page 42).

a working row to verify failure. Replace
sensor. Adjust sensor sensitivity.
Material is flowing,
but is not detected
by seed monitor This is normal during the first few
meters/feet of planting, as it takes some
time for material to reach rows. Lower openers 3m/10ft before planting
is to begin. Monitor does not check for
blockage during first 5 seconds.
Seed monitor disconnected. Connect seed monitor.
Planting too little
(some rows) Partial blockage in meter chamber, seed
hoses, towers, seed tubes Treat as blockage. See “No material
flow (multiple rows)” and “No material
