Important Safety Information Table of Contents

2018-06-12 800 3132-519M 1

Important Safety Information

Look for Safety Symbol

The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is a

potential hazard to personal safety involved and extra

safety precaution must be taken. When you see this

symbol, be alert and carefully read the message that

follows it. In addition to design and configuration of

equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are

dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence and

proper training of personnel involved in the operation,

transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.

Be Aware of Signal Words

Signal words designate a degree or level of hazard

seriousness.

DANGER, and the color Safety Red, indicate an

imminent hazard which, if not avoided, will result in death

or serious injury. This signal word is limited to the most

extreme situations, typically for machine components

that, for functional purposes, cannot be guarded.

WARNING, and the color Safety Orange, indicate a

potential hazard which, if not avoided, could result in

death or serious injury, and includes hazards that are

exposed when guards are removed. It may also be used

to alert against unsafe practices.

CAUTION, and the color Safety Yellow, indicate a

potential hazard which, if not avoided, may result in

minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert

against unsafe practices.

Prepare for Emergencies

 Be prepared if a fire starts

 Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy.

 Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance, hospital

and fire department near phone.

Be Familiar with Safety Decals

 Read and understand “Safety Decals” on page 5,

thoroughly.

 Read all instructions noted on the decals.

 Keep decals clean. Replace damaged, faded and illegible

decals.

Important Safety Information Table of Contents

800 3132-519M 2018-06-122

Wear Protective Equipment

 Wear protective clothing and equipment.

 Wear clothing and equipment appropriate for the job.

Avoid loose-fitting clothing.

 Because prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause

hearing impairment or hearing loss, wear suitable

hearing protection such as earmuffs or earplugs.

 Because operating equipment safely requires your full

attention, avoid wearing entertainment headphones while

operating machinery.

Handle Chemicals Properly

Agricultural chemicals can be dangerous. Improper use

can seriously injure persons, animals, plants, soil and

property.

 Do not use liquid seed treatments with the 800.

 Read and follow chemical manufacturer’s instructions.

 Wear protective clothing.

 Handle all chemicals with care.

 Avoid inhaling smoke from any type of chemical fire.

 Never drain, rinse or wash dispensers within 100 feet

(30m) of a freshwater source, nor at a car wash.

 Store or dispose of unused chemicals as specified by

chemical manufacturer.

 Dispose of empty chemical containers properly. Laws

generally require power rinsing or rinsing three times,

followed by perforation of the container to prevent re-use.

Avoid High Pressure Fluids

Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin,

causing serious injury.

 Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before

disconnecting hydraulic lines.

 Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to

check for suspected leaks.

 Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when

working with hydraulic systems.

 If an accident occurs, seek immediate medical attention

from a physician familiar with this type of injury.

Important Safety Information Table of Contents

2018-06-12 800 3132-519M 3

Use A Safety Chain

 Use a safety chain to help control drawn machinery

should it separate from tractor drawbar.

 Use a chain with a strength rating equal to or greater than

the gross weight of towed machinery.

 Attach chain to tractor drawbar support or other specified

anchor location. Allow only enough slack in chain to

permit turning.

 Replace chain if any links or end fittings are broken,

stretched or damaged.

 Do not use safety chain for towing.

Keep Riders Off Machinery

Riders obstruct the operator’s view. Riders could be

struck by foreign objects or thrown from the machine.

 Never allow children to operate equipment.

 Keep all bystanders away from machine during operation.

Use Safety Lights and Devices

Slow-moving tractors and towed implements can create

a hazard when driven on public roads. They are difficult

to see, especially at night.

 Use flashing warning lights and turn signals whenever

driving on public roads.

 Use lights and devices provided with implement.

Transport Machinery Safely

Maximum transport speed for implement is 20 mph

(30 kph). Some rough terrains require a slower speed.

Sudden braking can cause a towed load to swerve and

upset.

 Ensure towing vehicle weighs at least

2

/3 (67%) of gross

implement weight.

 Do not exceed 20 mph (30 kph). Never travel at a speed

which does not allow adequate control of steering and

stopping. Reduce speed if drill is not equipped with

brakes.

 Comply with state and local laws.

 Carry reflectors or flags to mark drill in case of

breakdown on the road.

Shutdown and Storage

 Park on level ground.

 Unhitch and store the drill in an area where children

normally do not play.

Important Safety Information Table of Contents

800 3132-519M 2018-06-124

Tire Safety

Tire changing can be dangerous and should be

performed by trained personnel using correct tools and

equipment.

 When inflating tires, use a clip-on chuck and extension

hose long enough for you to stand to one side–not in front

of or over tire assembly. Use a safety cage if available.

 When removing and installing wheels, use wheel-handling

equipment adequate for weight involved.

Practice Safe Maintenance

 Understand procedure before doing work. Use proper

tools and equipment. Refer to this manual.

 Work in a clean, dry area.

 Lower the drill, put tractor in park, turn off engine, and

remove key before performing maintenance. If work must

be performed with implement raised, use blocks or

jackstands rated for the drill weight.

 Make sure all moving parts have stopped and all system

pressure is relieved.

 Allow drill to cool completely.

 Disconnect battery ground cable (-) before servicing or

adjusting electrical systems.

 Welding: Disconnect battery ground. Avoid fumes from

heated paint.

 Inspect all parts. Make sure parts are in good condition

and installed properly.

 Remove buildup of grease, oil or debris.

 Remove all tools and unused parts from drill before

operation.

Safety At All Times

Thoroughly read and understand the instructions in this

manual before operation. Read all instructions noted on

the safety decals.

 Be familiar with all drill functions.

 Operate machinery from the driver’s seat only.

 Do not leave drill unattended with tractor engine running.

 Do not stand between the moving tractor and drill during

hitching.

 Keep hands, feet and clothing away from power-driven

a few yards of the drill, stop and park the tractor.

Crushing Hazard:

You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed

between the tractor and drill. Do not stand or place any part of

your body between machines being hitched. Stop tractor

engine and set park brake before installing hitch pin.

2. Crank the drill jack until the drill hitch matches the

tractor drawbar height.

3. Continue backing the tractor until the drawbar and

hitch are aligned. Stop and park the tractor. Adjust

the drill-tongue height until you can install the hitch

pin.

4. Install a hitch pin. Install a retaining clip to keep the

pin from working out of the hitch.

5. Secure the drill safety chain to an anchor on the

tractor capable of pulling the drill.

Refer to Figure 4

6. Use crank to raise jack foot. Remove pin and jack.

Store jack on top of tongue.

Electrical Connections

Refer to Figure 5

7. Plug drill electrical lead into tractor seven-pin

connector. If your tractor is not equipped with a

seven-pin connector, contact your dealer for

installation.

Negative Tongue Weight Hazard:

This drill can have positive and negative tongue weight, which

can work the hitch pin loose during transport. To avoid serious

injury or death due to a road accident, always check that the

drill is hitched before raising the openers. Lower the openers

before unhitching.

Hydraulic Hose Hookup

Only trained personnel should work on system hydraulics!

Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to

penetrate the skin, causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by

relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. Use a

piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for

leaks. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles

when working with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs,

seek immediate medical attention from a physician familiar

with this type of injury.

Refer to Figure 6

Hydraulic hoses have directional handles and are color

coded to help you hookup hoses to your tractor outlets.

Hoses that go to the same remote valve pair are marked

with the same color.

To distinguish hoses on the same hydraulic circuit, refer

to the symbols on the handles. Hose under

extended-cylinder symbol feeds cylinder base ends.

Hose under retracted-cylinder symbol feeds cylinder rod

ends.

8. Set tractor circuit for opener lift to float.

9. Plug cylinder base and rod end hoses into circuit

extend and retract ports.

Leveling the Drill

Use hitch turnbuckle to level drill.

Refer to Figure 7

1. Loosen jam nuts on hitch turnbuckle.

2. Turn turnbuckle to shorten or lengthen until top of

drill frame is parallel to the ground, being careful not

to extend clevises beyond turnbuckle.

3. Retighten jam nuts on turnbuckle.

Operating Instructions

This section covers general operating procedures. It

assumes that setup items have been completed.

Experience, machine familiarity and the following

information will lead to efficient operation and good

working habits. Always operate farm machinery with

safety in mind.

General Description

Field operations are controlled by a tractor cab hydraulic

lever. When openers are lowered, a mechanical clutch

engages, and the left end wheel drives the seed meter

shaft.

Seed and fertilizer meters operate at a rate proportional

to ground speed, as set by sprockets and/or rate handle,

based on the rate charts, and calibration.

Seeding depth and furrow coverage are controlled by drill

down pressure and row unit setup.

Pre-Start Checklist

High Pressure Fluid Hazard:

Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing

serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before

disconnecting hydraulic lines. Use a piece of paper or

cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for suspected leaks.

Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when

working with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs, seek

immediate medical attention from a physician familiar with

this type of injury.

Lubricate the drill as indicated under Lubrication,

“Maintenance and Lubrication” on page 37.

Check the tires for proper inflation according to

“Tire Inflation Chart” on page 53.

Check for worn or damaged parts and leaks.

Repair or replace before going to the field.

Check all nuts, bolts and screws. Tighten bolts as

specified on “Torque Values Chart” on page 55.

Raising Openers for Transport

The opener sub-frame is on a dedicated hydraulic circuit.

The openers raise and lower as a group, controlled from

a tractor cab lever.

The following instructions presume that the openers are

lowered, and need to be raised for transport.

Loss of Control Hazard:

Failure of the hydraulic cylinder during transport causes the

openers to drop suddenly, which could lead to serious road

accidents, injury or death. To prevent an accident, always

install the pivot-stop pin in the transport-lock position before

transporting the drill.

Opener Pivot Stop

1. Hitch the drill to a suitable tractor. See “Hitching” on

page 12.

Negative Tongue Weight Hazard:

Raising openers on an unhitched drill causes the drill tongue

to rise suddenly, which could cause serious injury or death. Be

certain that drill is hitched securely to your tractor drawbar

and the safety chain is securely attached to tractor before

raising openers.

2. Retract the opener lift cylinder to fully raise the

openers. Put the tractor circuit control in Neutral to

hold cylinder position.

Refer to Figure 8

3. Note which lettered (A-E) down-pressure pin hole

was previously in use. This is likely to be the same

hole used for the next planting.

4. Remove the pin from that down-pressure adjustment

hole.

5. Insert and secure the pin in its transport lock

position .
