Zone Command Check
Manually extend air cylinder rod so that engaging gear is
disengaged. Ensure gear turns freely, and both the air
cylinder and pivot arm pivot freely.
The pivot arm is designed with limits for engaging and
disengaging. This will allow the gear to engage smoothly and
prevent binding and excessive wear.
Test the Zone Command by pulling on the air cylinder rod
and letting go of the rod. The cylinder should retract on its
own to the seeding position. If it has tight pivot point, it may
cause the pivot arm to not return to the seeding position.
Ensure that all quick keeper pins are installed into the roller
cartridges and seed guide tube, this will keep the meter
rollers retained and in the proper drive position.
UPII CALIBRATION PROCEDURE PRE-SETUP
Check the metering rollers. Worn, encrusted, or dirty rollers will not meter accurately. Ensure that the
metering ledge is free of buildup as product application rate can be affected by the gap between the
metering rollers and metering ledge.
Note: It is crucial that all metering rollers are installed fully, ensuring that all retaining quick pins are
placed into all pin locations.
Hoppers must contain material. Use Zone Command controls to
dispense product from the desired metering section. Be prepared to
catch the material from one metering section in a container so it can be weighed at the end of
the calibration.
