Operating Instructions
This section covers general operating procedures. Expe-
rience, machine familiarity, and the following information
will lead to efficient operation and good working habits.
Always operate farm machinery with safety in mind.
Pre-Start Checklist
Perform the following steps before transporting the
NTA907/3007HD air drill to the field.
High Pressure Fluid Hazard:
Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to
penetrate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines and fittings before
applying pressure. Fluid escaping from a very small hole can
be almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts,
and wear heavy gloves to check for suspected leaks. If an acci-
dent occurs, seek immediate medical assistance from a physi-
cian familiar with this type of injury.
❑ Review “Important Safety Information” on page 1.
❑ Lubricate as indicated at “Lubrication” on page 133.
❑ Check all tires for proper inflation. See “Tire Infla-
tion Chart” on page 145.
❑ Check all bolts, pins, and fasteners. Torque as
shown in “Torque Values Chart” on page 154.
❑ Check air drill for worn or damaged parts. Repair or
replace parts before going to the field.
❑ Check hydraulic hoses, fittings, and cylinders for
leaks. Repair or replace before going to the field.
CFM Overview
The Control Function Module (CFM) is located below the
DICKEY-john console terminal. The CFM controls a bank
of solenoid valves on the drill, in the Fold/Tilt/Marker cir-
cuit.
On/Up opens the solenoid valve for the function.
Off/Down closes the solenoid valve for the function.
When MASTER is On, turn On only one function switch at a
time. To avoid unexpected movement of unintended drill
hydraulic components, no more than one of the Fold, Tilt or
Marker switches should ever be On at the same time.
Note: The CFM “MASTER” switch is the master for the
CFM only. It does not affect power to the monitor
terminal or other drill functions.
