secure hose every two feet or so leave ample slack
for folding an unfolding. Do not tie the last four feet of
hose.
75. Leaving ample slack (but no so much that hose
droops below inter-tank tees), cut hose to length and
secure to tee with clamp

Ground Drive Deferred Item
The hose to the relief valve is installed after the starter
boom system, at “Pump to Starter Relief Valve Hose”
on page 17.
Install High Rate Boom
This section installs most of the components of the 407-
137A kit.
Install the high rate boom first, as it contains components
necessary for installing dual booms.
These instructions presume that the high rate (H.R.)
boom is to be connected to a customer-supplied fertilizer
source, typically a tractor-mounted tank. Tank, strainer,
pump, power source and supply line to the planter are
customer-provisioned and installed.
The high rate boom is presumed to be concentrated fertil-
izer that cannot be applied directly to the seed furrow. The
most likely delivery method is via tubes to zone coulters
at the front of the rows.
