Row Fill is used with a control channel designated as Split Air Regulation.
Press the Row Fill button to fill all row units quickly when the planter is
completely empty. Airflow is diverted to supply seed to the meter only.

2. At the Planter Fill Disk screen, press the Row Fill button to start

supplying seed to the meter. The system will automatically fully open
the air path to the seed meters.

continue to operate normally.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that fan is on before starting the Row Fill

operation.

4. Perform a Planter Fill Disk after leaving the Row Fill screen.
