LID OPERATION
The lids are designed to be held closed with hydraulic pressure when fans are in use (lid cylinders are
being supplied with oil pressure to keep the lids closed).
Near the back of the cart (under the walkway), there is a selector valve. This valve will automatically
select the fan that is running at a higher RPM. For example, if you are seeding canola, you should have
the fan RPM turned down on the seed fan. This valve will automatically select the fertilizer fan to ensure
there is sufficient force to keep a tight seal on the lids.
Note: Ensuring maximum seal is maintained on lids is extremely important for accurate metering rates.
Periodically inspect and replace the seals.
To open the lids, reverse the hydraulic remote for the fan that is pressurizing the lids. There is a check
valve on the fan return which will prevent the fan from turning backwards. All the lids will open at once.
The lid selector valve will lock the lids from opening or closing when the
fans are shut off. DO NOT ENTER TANKS WITHOUT PROPER SAFTEY
EQUIPMENT AND OTHER PERSONNEL PRESENT. NEVER ENTER WHILE
EQUIPMENT IS RUNNING OR OPERATING.
