TRACTOR REQUIREMENTS
Consult your dealer for information on horsepower requirements and tractor compatibility. Requirements vary with
planter options, tillage, and terrain.
A 12 VDC electrical system is required on all sizes.
A minimum of two SCV remote hydraulic outlets are required on all sizes. One SCV is used for field lift and with a
control console switch operates raise to transport function. A second SCV using control console operates row markers
fold/unfold functions. Additional SCV’s with a zero pressure case drain are needed for vacuum fan motor for seed
metering system, bulk fill, Blue Drive, and Wing Down Pressure (if installed without vacuum or bulk fill).
Maximum hydraulic flow rate of 49 L/min @ 2000 PSI (13800 kPa) is required to operate vacuum fan motor.

3. Lubricate planter and row units following instructions in lubrication and Maintenance section of this manual.
4. Check all drive chains for proper tension, alignment, and lubrication.
All Hydraulic Requirements: Minimum
Pressure 2350 PSI (16200 kPa); Maximum
Pressure 3000 PSI (20700 kPa). Check
tractor hydraulics to ensure that
maximum pressure cannot be exceeded.
