OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTSa 16 tooth driven or hopper sprocket furnishedwith the fertilizer hoppers. To obtain miximumoutput of fertilizer, use largest sprocket on driveshaft. NOTE: Driving sprockets should be usedas drivers only. The pitch diameter is differentfrom driven sprockets and if used on hopperswould cause chain to climb.:MAINDRIVE CHAINMove hopper frame and attaching brackets (4)Fig. 10 forward or back on tractor frame toobtain correct chain tension, or add or removelink from chain (20). NOTE: Be sure driveshaft and bearings do not bind in curve of tractorframe if hopper frame assembly is moved towardthe rear.The rate of flow of fertilizeris controlled bythe gate at inner side of fertilizer hopper. Adjustgate for a given amount of fertilizerper acreafter making trial runs in field. Approximately1000 lbs. of free running fertilizer can be drilledper acre on 40 inch rows with gate wide open.NOTE: If the L.H. fertilizer hopper is also usedthis amount would be double.:HOPPER DRIVE CHAINAdjust chain tightener up or down to obtaincorrect chain tension or add or remove linksfrom chain. For best operation, chain shouldhave a slight amount of slack.With a light fine fertilizer the maximum amountdrilled per acre would be less and best resultswill be obtained with approximately 3/4 openingof the gate.,THROWOUT ARMAdjust chain (22) Fig. 10 between extension (6)and throwout arm (7) so hopper drive will disengage when unit is raised. Chain should be slackwhen unit is in transportposition.Be surethrowout arm (7) does not bind on attaching bolt.EMPTYING FERTILIZERHOPPERS:HOPPER SLIP CLUTCHESTwo methods may be used to empty fertilizerhoppers.Put a few drops of oil on fertilizer hopper slipclutches as needed to avoid rusting or sticking.Never run units if clutches slip too frequently.Empty hoppers and determine cause of slippage.1.
