Point Row Pumping from 400 via Cart
!
CAUTION
It must be acceptable for modest quantities of the material
in the 400 gallon tank to be bypassed into the 1600 gallon
tank. If this is not the case, do not disable, or let the seed
monitor disable, any of feed lines 1, 2 or 3.
If it is necessary to disable fertilizer application for one
or two planter sections, such as for point rows, use the
Clutch Folding Module switches. When you disable the
clutches for any seed meters, the monitor also closes
the manifold valve for that planter section. This pro-
vides automatic fertilizer control for point rows.
Note: Also use the following valve settings to ensure
bypass protection for the cart pump.
1.
Set 1600 gallon discharge valve
to pump.
2.
Set 400 gallon inlet valve
OFF.
3.
Set 400 gallon outlet valve
at to feed pump.
4.
Set pump inlet selector valve
to 400 tank.
5.
Set CFM “Fert.Pump” switch to ON and begin
planting.
Whenever one or two of the cart manifold valves (#1,
2, 3) are closed, the bypass valve (#4) is open. This
prevents over-pressure in the planter manifolds.
Excess material is pumped into the 1600 gallon tank.
If the 400 gallon tank is emptied before the task is
complete, switch back to 1600 gallon mode and use
the bypassed material.
