Proper servicing and maintenance is the key to long
implement life. With careful and systematic inspection,
you can avoid costly maintenance, downtime, and
repair.

CAUTION

The line from the pump outlet, through the pump strainer,
manifold through gauge line #5 to gauge on the planter may
be pressurized even when not pumping. Open any connec-
tions on this line slowly to avoid spraying.

Always turn off and remove the tractor key before mak-
ing any adjustments or performing any maintenance
when hitched.
