They trust their crop to the in-row seed spacing. The Case IH Early combination of the Early Riser Row Unit Riser row unit delivers the control over and the Advanced Seed Meter, knowing these critical factors that is necessary for that seed placement and metering are faster germination for earlier, more even THE key elements in achieving consistent emergence. Zero-indexed depth control stands, with the high yields necessary assures consistent settings from row-to- to remain competitive in today’s row, with quick adjustments to optimize pockets, instead using the power of vacuum agricultural environment. seed placement to moisture conditions. to hold seeds to the flat side of the disk. The Advanced Seed Meter uses vacuum technology to precisely control seed metering. The larger seed disk rotates more slowly than other vacuum meters, improving spacing precision, especially at higher speeds. The ASM seed disk has no Seed does not tumble out of the disk, but simply drops from the disk and into the seed tube. Without pockets, disks can plant a wider range of seed sizes with less need Equalizing gauge wheels are pulled, not pushed, by the row unit. Gauge wheels easily “walk” to switch disks when changing varieties over residue and clods to minimize depth variation, and are more stable at faster ground speeds during busy planting seasons. In fact, the and adverse field conditions. Then, the Early Riser row unit uses offset double disk openers to ASM will accurately meter all normal seed slice a trench through heavy residue and hard soil. The low angle opener and specially-contoured corn sizes and grades, with just one vacuum gauge wheels produce a uniform trench, and retain moist soil next to the trench. A furrow firming and meter setting. point defines the seed trench and firms loose soil, creating the perfect environment for seed entering from the seed tube. Patented covering disks gently squeeze the trench closed, returning moist soil over the seed. Finally, a wide press wheel lightly firms soil on top of the furrow to eliminate air pockets, ensuring optimal seed-to-soil contact for quick germination. The unique chevron tread pattern scores the soil to encourage surface cracking for easier emergence in crust-prone soils. The attention to seed placement accuracy delivered by the Early Riser is evidenced by proven emergence from one to seven days faster than with other planter row units. A special three-spool singulator design consistently delivers one seed, and one seed only, from each meter disk hole. The Advanced Seed Meter singulator is not as sensitive to variations in seed size and shape or vacuum levels, meaning you spend your time planting, not tweaking seed meters to achieve desired seed population. 3 EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS General Information Combining the Case IH Early Riser row unit and Advanced Finally, one of the most important features of your Case Seed Meter allows you to confidently achieve accurate IH planter, is your Case IH Dealer.

As farm equipment has gotten larger, the size and weight of the equipment, coupled with the power of hydraulics and mechanical systems used to manipulate and control machines, makes a constant awareness of safety a foremost requirement of any operator. We also understand that planting time places added anxiety and stress on operators who know that the success of a full year is at stake every time they go to the field. However, hurrying never relieves the operator of their responsibility to operate the machine safely. Take a few minutes to review the Operator’s Manual safety 8.Removing guards for service work is no excuse to leave guards off during operation. Guards are intended to protect operators and any other persons, and must remain intact and installed as originally designed. 9.Review the Operator's Manual to identify and understand the use of service locks prior to starting service operations. Engage service locks for all service operations. Use 10. jackstands or secure blocking when working under or around raised equipment. Never work on the planter without securely setting and locking service and transport locks in position and removing machine weight from the hydraulics systems. EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS Safety information before starting each year. The payback for your time should be a safer and more successful planting season. Do not take shortcuts, thinking that an accident takes time to happen. Accidents can happen in seconds, too often leaving someone plenty time to think about how the accident could have avoided—while they heal. General Safety Rules 1. lways remember that the Operator's Manual is first and A always the “go to” resource when you have questions about how to operate your machine. The following information is a generalized review of Safety rules. Refer to the Operator’s Manual for complete information. 2.One of the main features of large planting equipment is the ability to quickly move from one farm to another, using public roadways. Take time to become familiar with the traffic laws in your locality and how they apply to your large planting equipment. 3. hen operating on public roads always use lights, flashers and W turn signals for maximum visibility. Maintain a clean and visible Slow-Moving Vehicle sign on the rear of the machine. 11.When servicing ground engaging components such as opening disks and firming points, use special care to avoid points and edges worn sharp during use. 12. The design of modern planters places significant load on tires. Always keep tires inflated to the specifications published in your planter Operator Manual. Service tires carefully, observing Operator’s Manual instructions and rules. 13.Chemical application is often an integral part of planting. Use the utmost care to protect yourself, other people, and the environment from the effects of overexposure to agricultural chemicals. 14.Follow label instructions for proper chemical mixing, handling and container disposal methods. 15.Be familiar with safety procedures for immediate first aid should you accidentally contact chemical substances. 4.Be a good neighbor and pull over to let traffic pass if possible to avoid creating unnecessary delay and stress for other drivers. 16.Use the proper protective clothing and safety equipment when handling chemicals. Don't take chances-work safe. 5.For best field performance and the most secure road transport, make sure the weight of the implement does not exceed the recommended towing capacity of the tractor being used. This is especially important in areas with high traffic and hills that increase the braking and stopping demands necessary to maintain safe control. 17.Chemicals are supplied with Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) that provide full information about the chemical, its effects on exposure, and first aid needs in the event of an emergency. Keep your MSDS file up-to-date and available for first responders in case of emergency. 6.Do not exceed the drawbar or towing capacity of the tractor. When transporting front-fold planters, empty seed and fertilizer boxes and tanks whenever possible to reduce tractor drawbar load and total planter weight. 7.When transporting equipment, maintain safe maximum travel speeds to assure complete control, and the ability to stop in case of emergency. Refer to tractor and planter Operator’s Manual recommendations for maximum transport loading and weight. 18.Observe and inspect all warning decals on the machine, and replace any decals that are damaged and unreadable. 19.Never allow the machine to be raised or lowered while service is being performed. Numerous linkages are used to move and suspend components. Pinch points between linkage and other parts of the machine are inherent, and could cause injury to an unsuspecting worker if machine movement is initiated 9 EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS Service Inspection Take Full Advantage of its Capabilities Have you, or did someone you know purchase a new planter in the last few years and continued to use it in much the same way as the planter it replaced? Many times operators do not fully realize and take advantage of modern features. As a result of not fully utilizing the planter’s features, the owner may not be getting all the value from the money spent. Many of the items suggested in this booklet can be completed by the owner when preparing for the season or the operator when starting a new field. Other adjustments, service procedures, or repairs might be more effectively completed by your dealer’s trained service technicians. Maintenance Choices, Being Prepared for demanding Conditions Ask your Case IH dealer about Customized Maintenance Inspections. It is a proactive way to be sure your planter will operate at its best possible performance when you need it. Customized Maintenance Inspections include a visual and functional inspection of your planter. They can be used as a pre-season or as a postseason tune-up. Benefits include: • Increased productivity • Documented maintenance • Less downtime during the season • Service by Case IH-trained technicians • Lower operating costs • Service with Genuine Case IH lubricants, filters, and parts The combined advantages of Customer Maintenance Inspection services • Improved fuel economy should result in a lower cost of ownership and higher resale values. Documented Service Promotes High Resale Value When you schedule your equipment for annual maintenance inspection services, your Case IH dealership places annual UPTIME Action Maintenance decals on your equipment after each inspection, distinguishing your commitment to keep your machines running in top condition. Not only does annual maintenance support your productivity in the field, each decal symbolizes completed service—which may increase the resale value of your equipment. Because Case IH technicians use Customized Maintenance Inspection checklists for each inspection, you can rest assured the service is thorough and nothing is overlooked. 10 Inspection Checklist Checklist For Your “Walk Around” Inspection Replace/ Firming Wheel OKAdjust 1.

The Tractor/Planter Preparation section of the Operator's Manual lists specific requirements for your planter. General factors are: • Minimum tractor PTO horsepower • Minimum tractor weight and balance • Minimal number of remote hydraulic valves • PTO compatibility with planter hydraulic pump, if equipped • Adequate 12 volt electrical system capacity • 3-point hitch requirements • Tractor tread width adjustable to row spacing Some specific details that apply to general tractor/planter compatibility requirements include: • Tractor horsepower and weight must be adequate to maintain control of the planter in the field and transport situations. This is especially important when operating on hilly or unstable soil when additional control is required. • Planters are equipped with several hydraulic motors that require low back pressure case drain returns to the tractor. Low pressure is defined as less than 25 PSI under full-flow conditions. Refer to your tractor Operator's Manual for correct low-pressure return connections for your tractor. • A warning tag (A) on the case drain hose reminds the operator that incorrect connection of the case drain may damage the vacuum fan motor. Motor failures due to improper case drain connection are not covered by warranty. • When using a hydraulic PTO pump to power planter vacuum and bulk fill fans, refer to specific tractor installation instructions for PTO pump torque restraint kits. • Tractor 3-point hitch adjustments should be set according to planter Operator Manual instructions. For example, sway adjustment will vary between hitch-mounted toolbar planters, and a drawn planter using the 3-point hitch quick coupler connection to the tractor. • Electrical system requirements include the standard seven-pin connector socket for safety lighting, and to power the planter hydraulic system cooling fan, if equipped. In addition, tractor monitor or AFS system wiring may be required, according to installed options. • Tractor requirements vary widely depending upon the size of planter and type of hitch arrangement. Always refer to the Operator Manual for information pertaining specifically to your planter. When hookup is complete, thoroughly inspect the routing of all hoses and electrical harnesses between the tractor and planter. • Steer the tractor/planter combination through complete right and left turns, raise and lower the tractor or planter hitch while observing routing to assure no interference develops during operation and maneuvering. 12 A Leveling the planter Planter row units must be set to operate level front-to-back when operating in the field. • Adjustments should be made with the planter in a level area of a field prepared for planting. • Planter unit down-pressure adjustments should be set according to planting conditions. • When the planter is lowered to the operating position, the toolbar should be level, and the parallel linkage arms level between the toolbar and planter row units. GENERAL PLANTING TIPS EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS Operation Several important factors must be considered when planting. General factors are: • Do not lower the planter to planting position while stationary. This may cause plugging at the seed shoe. Always be moving forward when the planter is lowered to planting position. • Dig often to check seed depth and seed spacing accuracy. • After lowering the planter, place the frame control remote valve in float to allow the markers to float. Check tractor hydraulic flow adjustments for each planter function run direct from the tractor (Vacuum Fan(s), Seed Drive (if equipped), Liquid Fertilizer, & Bulk Fill) after reaching operating temperature. Do not set the flow levels to 100% and leave. Flows levels should be set just above the required amount to reduce the potential for overheating and power consumption. PLANTING WITH A HYDRAULIC DRIVE PLANTER Hydraulic drive planters require different operating techniques than ground drive planters. Follow these tips to have a successful planting season. • Use the ‘Planter Systems’ button (v27.* software and after) to start the necessary systems (vacuum, bulk fill, seed & liquid, plus prime the meters) to begin planting...with one button push! It’s never been easier! • Also utilize “Prime Control” if starting to plant with the planter in the ground and starting at 0 mph. The planter does not automatically start planting until 1 mph of ground speed. A planting gap could be seen, if prime control is not used. • Maintain constant and high enough engine RPM levels to keep high quality planter operation. This engine RPM is typically between 1800-1900 engine RPMs. See the tractor operator's manual. • Avoid sudden changes in ground speed to keep consistent seed spacing. • When stopping lift the planter out of the ground or use the “Master Control” button to stop the seed drives before stopping to assure consistent seed spacing. Please reference the “Working Operations” section of the planter Operator's Manual for more details. 13 EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE Daily maintenance Daily maintenance on Case IH planters is limited to a few simple lubrication and component checks. • Grease points should be identified by reviewing the lubrication section of your planter Operator Manual. • Units equipped with a PTO fan drive have a separate planter mounted oil reservoir. The oil level should be confirmed to be at the proper level; the oil cooler checked for debris that could impair air flow, and fan operation verified to assure proper system cooling. • Numerous drive chains are used on planters, and should be lubricated using Case IH chain lubricant ZAD-1. • Check all air intake screens on vacuum or bulk hopper fan inlets. • Lubricate all frame pivots Lubricate drive couplers and driveshaft grease fittings according to Operator Manual specifications. Verifying Planter Performance and “As Required” Maintenance Advanced Seed Meter and Early Riser row unit maintenance is described in the Operator Manual as “as required” service functions. • Basically, this means that units can be operated without need for specific maintenance checks as long as meter function is to standard, and seed placement and seed furrow opener performance is satisfactory. • The key to defining “as required” is quite simply to “get out and dig” behind the planter. • Throughout the day, stop and open the seed trench behind the planter on varying rows to perform a full planter inspection at least once per day. This is especially important when starting each season; or when making planter changes or adjustments. • Maintain enough down pressure to prevent row unit bounce and potential poor seed placement. • Look for seed trench opening disks (A, B) and firming point (C) depth. Seed depth should be checked from the press wheel impression to the seed. Do not measure from the gauge wheel impressions, or the surface of the soil between the row unit gauge wheel tracks. • Check seed spacing (D) and placement to confirm seed meter accuracy and setting. • Confirm covering disk action and seed trench closure (E). • Verify press wheel function (F). The outcome of these inspections will determine if adjustment is necessary on meters or row units. 14 Advanced Seed Meter Inspection The simple design of the Case IH Advanced Seed Meter greatly reduces maintenance demands when compared to other seed meters. With just a few simple steps, the meter can be inspected and worn parts replaced to maintain the efficiency and accuracy of the meter. Begin by removing the seed hopper and meter from the row unit. • Disconnect and inspect the main vacuum hose and its connection to the meter. EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE • Three latches hold the meter cover to the meter housing. Remove the cover and inspect the surfaces on the cover. • Six triangular wear indicators are molded into the cover. Inspect the indicators for wear, and replace the cover if any indicators are worn beyond recognition. The seed disk is manufactured with wear indicator slots which become shallow as the disk wears. • Replace the disk when the surface is worn to the bottom of the slots and the slots are no longer visible. • When replacing the disk make sure adhesive labels are removed from the outer area of the disk at least 1.5 in. back from the seed holes on either side of the disk. Adhesive labels can affect singulator adjustment and may result in variations in seed spacing. • Also inspect the seed holes, and replace the disk if any holes are worn out-of-round. It is normal for seed disks to develop circular grooves as the disk wears in and mates to the housing. Disks must always be returned to the same meter housing for optimum life and performance. Rotate the singulator dial to make sure the spool assembly moves freely in its tracks. • Remove debris with compressed air if necessary to ensure free movement. • Do not use chemical solvents to clean the singulator. • Check the singulator arms and spools for freedom of movement and rotation. • The singulator spools are manufactured with a wear indicator groove “A” around the outer edge. 15 EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE Advanced Seed Meter Inspection (continued) • Replace the spool when it is worn to the bottom of the groove. • Singulator spools are 1.17 in. diameter when new. • Lubricate the singulator spool bearing surfaces with dry powdered graphite. 1. Wear Groove 2. Worn Spool Other seed meter checks: • Check for debris in the seed meter screen and behind singulators. • Inspect the agitator for any signs of wear, breakage or permanent distortion. • Turn the disk rotor drive to make sure it turns freely. • When all components are removed from the meter housing, wash the meter housing with soap and water to remove debris. • Use only dry powdered graphite to lubricate the singulator components. • Clean debris from the meter brushes. The brushes will naturally become deformed in operation, which is not a cause for replacement. Replace the brushes only if leakage occurs from the meter housing. • Check the drive coupler pawls to assure they rotate freely and completely to allow full engagement and disengagement of the disk drive rotor. Check the seed tube and sensor for signs of debris which would affect seed movement, placement and sensing. • Roughness in the seed tube can affect seed spacing patterns, and should be repaired by replacing the tube. • Check for wear at the bottom of the tube where seed enters the seed trench. • Clean seed sensors with soap and water, or Seed Tube Cleaning Brush Part Number 346290A, available from your Case IH dealer. 16 Advanced Seed Meter Inspection (continued) Refer to the Operator’s Manual for complete inspection and part replacement procedures. • A key element in achieving long life and good meter performance is to always assure that seed disks are returned to their original meter housings. Wear patterns will develop during operation. If seed disks are mixed, new wear patterns will accelerate disk wear and could result in premature replacement. Meter performance issues may develop due to variations in the operating fit from one row unit to another. • Number disks and meter housings to assure disks are always returned to the same housing. EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE AccuRow Service requirements for the AccuRow system are minimal. The row clutches are disengaged by air pressure supplied by an onboard compressor. Prescribed air system service such as draining condensation from reservoir tanks and cleaning or replacement of the air filter element will help to assure trouble-free operation. Refer to the Operator’s Manual for specific service details. The primary service points are: • Lubricate the row clutches every 100 hours. Remove the Phillips-head screw from the lube port and spray a 1 second blast of DRY SILICONE into the port. IMPORTANT: DO NOT use petroleum-based solvents or lubricants in the clutch lube port. • Remove the air hose, and lubricate the clutch piston with one drop of SAE 10W30, or air tool oil. • At the end of the season remove the covers from the AccuRow clutches and blow any accumulated dust out of the clutch with compressed air. Excessive dust buildup in the clutch will cause it to slip under load. • Air reservoirs should be drained daily. When operating in high humidity conditions, more frequent service is suggested. • Air Compressor filter element should be blown out daily or every 10 hours of operation. Filter element should be replaced every 200 hrs or once per season. The filter element is part number 47454058. Note: The filter intake screen should be positioned towards the ground when re-installing the filter element cover. Early Riser Row Unit Inspection A walking beam suspension between the two gauge wheels and the row unit opener frame allows one gauge wheel to pass over a rock or clod. • Only raises the opener one half the distance to maintain a more consistent planting depth. • Gauge wheels are pulled by arms mounted from the front of the row unit. Wheels move over obstructions more easily than “pushed” gauge wheels. 17 EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE Early Riser Row Unit Inspection (Continued) The seed furrow is created by the Early Riser Row Unit starting with two staggered 14-inch opener disks. • The trailing disk follows behind and slightly to the side of the leading disk to open the trench and move moist soil to the surface. • Check the distance between the opener disks at the closest point. Distance between the openers should be shimmed to 0 - 3.1 mm (0 - 1/8 in). A • Soil that is raised to the surface by the opening disks is held in place at the edge of the seed furrow by grooves on the edge the gauge wheels, next to the disk. A slight “W”-shaped formation at the bottom of the trench is made up of loose soil. • A firming point (A) finishes the trench by forming the soil at the bottom of the trench into a consistent V-shape for optimum soil-to-seed contact and germination. • The firming point should be replaced when it no longer conforms to the shape of the 1958225C3 firming point tool, available from your Case IH dealer. When servicing ground-engaging components, use care to avoid injury on parts worn sharp by contact with the soil. • Refer to the Operator’s Manual maintenance section for the proper procedures for replacing components. • Opener disks should be replaced when they are worn to a 13-1/2 in. diameter. • Inspect disk scrapers. • Scrapers are not adjustable, and should be replaced when they are no longer able to keep disks clean in your soil and planting conditions. Rotary scrapers are available from your parts department. • Disks and firming points should be replaced in sets to maintain an even depth and soil contact characteristics, and to promote even wear patterns. • Check each side of the seed shoe for wear. The seed shoe helps retain the sides of the seed trench until after the seed is dropped into the seed trench. Replace the seed shoe if a notch is worn in the bottom of either side of the seed shoe. 18 Checking the row unit zero setting. The zero setting should be check when any of the following occur: • New parts are installed on the gauge wheel and adjustment system. • The opener disks and firming point are replaced. • A row unit is not planting at the same depth as the others when set at the same setting. • During preseason preparation. To check and adjust the zero setting: 1. Place the planter on a hard/level surface (preferably a concrete pad). 2. Lower the planter row units until the parallel links are parallel to the ground. 3. Turn the depth control handle on the rear of the row unit until the indicator is at ZERO. EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE 4. Check the clearance between the firming point and the level surface. The correct clearance should be 0.79 mm (0.030 in.). 5. If the clearance is larger than 0.79 mm (0.030 in.), lift the planter and insert a 1/4 x 2 3/4 in. pin in the hole of the wobble bracket. 6. Lower the planter so the parallel links are level and turn the depth adjustment handle till the clearance of 0.79 mm (0.030 in.) is reached. 7. Loosen the scale retaining screws and move the scale align the Zero position with the "0" on the indicator. 8. Remove the headed pin from the wobble bracket. 9. Adjust the row units to the desired depth using the depth adjustment handle. Check closing disks for a minimum outside diameter. • Replace closing disks when they are worn to a diameter of 7.5 inches or are damaged. The Pneumatic Down Pressure system has few maintenance requirements. • Draining accumulated condensate water from the system is the primary service requirement. • Check the following components of the system for leakage with soapy water if system leakdown is occurring: - system pressure gauge -schrader valve - three way valve(s) - threaded fittings - tubing press fittings - pneumatic springs on row units • On AccuRow-equipped planters with In-Cab Pneumatic Down Pressure adjustment, a common air system is used for AccuRow and Pneumatic Down Pressure. - AccuRow maintenance will provide necessary service for Pneumatic Down Pressure system Refer to the Operator’s Manual for the specific planter for complete details. On planters with hydraulically-driven seed meters, check ground speed sensors on the wheels for debris or missing teeth. • Sensor “sprockets” should operate a consistent distance from the sensor of 0.040-0.160 inch while the wheel is turned, for accurate speed indications. • Make sure speed sensor harnesses are properly routed and secured. 19 EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE Bulk Hopper Inspection Some simple checks should be performed on bulk hopper systems to assure proper operation. • Cover gasket condition and seal integrity • Remove debris from the bulk seed fan screen • Clean bulk fill inductor box • Inspect inductor box seals If the cover gasket does not appear to contact the cover evenly, adjustment of the hinges and latches may be helpful in maintaining a more airtight seal. Bulk Fill System Troubleshooting Diagram (MY2002-MY2012) Seed not flowing or low seed flow to the mini-hopper. Turn the bulk Fan OFF and verify by removing hose from the mini-hopper – seed level should be full to the top of the screen or bottom of the seed deceleration elbow (MY12 & after). Check that fan speed selected is a recommended speed and that fan is operating. Check that seed gate is in the OPEN position. Check for air leaks at hopper cover, seed door, clean-out hatch, seed box, fan housing or hose connections to the same. Some air seepage is expected around doors and the seed gate. Air leaks found? YES Re-latch hoppers. Adjust cover latches. Replace leaking gasket. Tighten hose clamps or repair/ replace hose NO Seed flow okay? YES DONE NO Turn fan OFF. Check for debris at the mini-hopper screen. Check if seed has bridged at mini-hopper inlet collar. If seed bridged at the inlet collar, the mini-hopper may appear to be full but is actually empty. Check hose and coupler at mini-hopper for plugging. Check hose to seed box for plugging. Clean screen or remove obstruction DONE YES Turn fan ON. Seed Flow OK?

NO Cycle bulk fill fan on/off 3 times Seed in mini-hopper? NO Place hand below snorkel and verify proper airflow. Airflow adequate? NO Check mini-hopper elbows and bulk fill hoses for plugging. Check for bent or broken seed hoses. Check for plugging at quick disconnect at the distribution box. Seed Flow OK? NO YES Plugging is caused by foreign material, seed treatment, or high bulk fill fan speed. Lower the fan speed in 100 rpm increments. Additional dry powdered graphite may be necessary with some treatments. DONE If adequate airflow is still not found at the row unit snorkel with the fan running repeat the above steps looking for plugging in the mini-hopper elbows, seed hoses, and distributions box. Turning the bulk fill fan on/off multiple times will help to dislodge a plug. Mini-hoppers on outer row units not staying full of seed indicate a low fan speed. This will be confirmed by low population alarms for these row units. Increase the fan speed in 100 RPM increments until mini-hoppers remain filled to the proper level. Seed plugging at the mini-hopper elbows may indicate a high fan speed. Seed hoses plugging also indicate a high fan speed. Seed should fill up the bottom of the snorkel – any seed level higher than the snorkel indicates a high fan speed. Decrease the fan speed in 100 RPM increments until mini-hoppers remain filled to the proper level. NOTE: Additional dry powdered graphite may be necessary when using seed coated with treatments. 22 Bulk Fill Performance Improvement (Model Year 2002-2010) New parts are available to improve the performance of the Model Year 20022010 bulk fill system. The result is more balanced seed delivery. The common adjustment to address poor filling, particularly on the outer row units, is to increase fan speed to more effectively deliver seed to the outer ends of the planter. • Increased fan speed may solve filling issue, but may deliver seed to inner rows with force sufficient to compact the seed in the hopper, resulting in bridging. • Seed tube standpipes on all rows serve as a decelerator to slow seed velocity, reducing compaction and potential bridging. EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS MAINTENANCE • Inserts (A) placed in inner row mini-hoppers replace the vent screens to reduce air flow, and seed velocity. • Reduced air venting from center rows results in greater air flow to outer rows to more effectively deliver seed to outer rows.

For best coverage and performance with bulk fill, apply the 80/20 graphite/talc mix seed lubricant while filling the seed hopper either with an applicator on the seed tender or as the seed enters the tank. • Basic ratio is 1/8 cup per two bushels • Use talc sparingly in humid or damp conditions (talc absorbs moisture and may result in seed flow issues) Refer to the planter Operator’s Manual for lubricant application rates for new planter hoppers and first fill. Some other helpful hints assure meter performance: • Vacuum should be set only as high as necessary to hold seeds to the seed disk. • Excessive vacuum accelerates seed disk and seed meter housing wear. • Excessive vacuum makes singulation more difficult, and requires more oil flow and power to operate the fan. Results in increased heat in hydraulic drive system. 24 SEED LUBRICANT RATES Note: 1 lb. of graphite or graphite/talc mixture = approx. 3 cups EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS ADJUSTMENTS POPULATION ADJUSTMENTS • If equipped with an AFS Pro 600/700 display and hydraulic drive, all population adjustments are made through the display. Check the seed disk selection chart to be sure the proper disk is installed. • If equipped with a mechanical seed meter drive, check the operator’s manual for the proper sprocket configuration for the desired population. Also reference the seed disk selection chart to be sure the proper seed disk is installed. As stated earlier, the key to accurate seed meter adjustment is to take the time to open the trench and check seed placement and spacing, counting the seed population over a specified row length. • The table indicates the row length required to be opened to equal 1/1000th of an acre. • Counting the seed in this distance and multiplying by 1000 will give an accurate indication of seed population. ROW WIDTH (INCHES) 12 20 22 30 36 38 40 • Adjust the singulator dial to a higher number setting per the recommended settings chart on the next page (Corn is “3”, Soybeans is “8”, etc). Adjustments to a lower number can be made if doubles are being observed (i.e. population is high, or to a higher number if skips are being seen (population is low).

Refer to the planter Operator’s Manual for specific steps to secure your machine for storage. 1.Fold markers and set storage locks as specified in the Operator’s Manual. Park the planter on appropriate storage stands. 10.Following proper procedures for handling farm chemicals, clean granular chemical hoppers. Re-install hoppers to their original row units. 2.Make sure tires are properly inflated. 11.Clean and lubricate the planter. Use touch-up paint as necessary. 3.Disconnect hydraulic and electrical lines. Cover connectors to prevent dirt contamination during storage. 4.Remove and clean seed meters. Inspect parts for wear. Reassemble meter covers to meter housings. 5.Store seed disks on a flat surface to prevent damage. Disks may also be stored by hanging them through the center hole. Identify seed disks to assure they are returned to the same meter housings when placed back into service. 6.Completely empty and clean bulk hoppers and seed boxes. 7.Coat exposed hydraulic cylinder rods with grease to prevent rust. 8.Clean ground-engaging parts, and coat with grease or Case IH TILCOAT to prevent rust during storage. (Purchase TILCOAT from your Case IH dealer in aerosol, part number 1132221N, or in larger bulk containers) 9.Remove drive chains and store in a container of clean oil or diesel fuel. 12.Check ground engaging components for wear, and replace as needed EARLY RISER® PLANTER PRODUCTIVITY TIPS STORAGE 13.Inspect electrical harnesses and hydraulic hoses. Make necessary repairs to worn or damaged areas. 14.Clean and inspect the vacuum system. 15.Check and re-tighten hardware. 16.Release pressure from the AccuRow or Pneumatic Down Pressure air systems if applicable. Open drains and allow accumulated water to escape. Make sure the air compressor is protected from the elements during the storage period. 17.Remove the covers from the AccuRow clutches and blow any accumulated dust out of the clutch with compressed air. Excessive dust buildup in the clutch will cause it to slip under load. 18.Lubricate AccuRow clutches. Remove the air line and apply one drop of SAE 10W oil or air tool oil into each cylinder and cycle clutch several times before storing. Removing the Planter from Storage 1.Clean hydraulic hose couplers before connecting to the tractor. 2.Make sure tires are properly inflated before moving the planter. 3.Remove protective grease and clean exposed cylinder rods. 4.Carefully raise the planter, making sure settling during storage, or other closely-parked equipment does not result in interference when raising and moving the planter. 5.Make sure seed disks are returned to matching meter housings when re-installed. 6.Inspect the entire planter for signs of rodent or other damage. Check hydraulic hoses and wiring harnesses for proper routing, and tie strap as needed. 7.Re-install drive chains. 8.Lubricate all grease fittings. Do not over-grease fittings lubricated when the unit was put in storage. 9.Cover bulk fill hopper bottom with powdered graphite 10.Cover seed disk with graphite 11.Work powdered graphite into singulator spool pins 12.Clean seed tubes and seed sensors 13.Close AccuRow or Pneumatic Down Pressure drains if applicable. 14.Read the Operator’s Manual for both the planter and display operation 39 SAFETY NEVER HURTS!™ Always read the Operator’s Manual before operating any equipment.

Printed in U.S.A. www.caseih.com PL-3076-13 Replaces: PL-3076-12 Early Riser® Series Planter Hydraulic Requirements Knowing the model of the tractor to be used on a Stacker, Pivot Transport or Front Fold planter will determine which planter hydraulic drive system will need to be installed on the planter. The charts outline the range of potential hyd. requirements. The descriptions below the charts outline the potential requirements with a given PTO pump. The actual flows depend on how the planter is configured, what planter settings are (ex. Vacuum level, Bulk Fill Speed, etc) and how much flow is required for tractor functions (ex. Steering, etc). Typical requirements are towards the lower end of the numbers provided. NOTE: One vacuum fan will work for up to 18 rows of Corn or Soybeans. In other, large seed crops, one fan may not be enough for proper operation. NOTE: The AFS Pro 600 & AFS Pro 700 display has a “Headland Auto Off” feature that will disable the bulk fill fan when turning on the headland and will lower the amount of oil flow the planter will require at headlands. Totals are assuming this feature is turned “on” and the bulk fill will turn off/on when planter is lifted/lowered. NOTE: Automatic Overlap Control & Boundary Control will automatically turn off hydraulic drives (seed & liquid) which will reduce the amount of oil flow requirements at headlands 8, 12 or 16 row ER1230 planter Vacuum fan Seed drive motors (2) (add 3-4 gpm if 16 row) Total requirements 10-13 gpm 6-8 gpm 16-21 gpm Raise/lower and markers (depends on tractor 3-pt) ?

This window appears on the Display Setup screen in the Toolbox. “Large Tractor” and “Medium Tractor” can be used when a CNH vehicle-specific harness is installed. Vehicle-specific harnesses allow some vehicle settings to be monitored or controlled through the display. When a universal harness is used, you must select “Generic Tractor” for a trouble free connection. A universal harness can be used by CNH or non-CNH tractors, but does not support monitoring or control of vehicle functions through the display. Screen layouts, saved calibrations, user selections and user defined lists are not shared between the vehicle types. Switching vehicle types may require setting up the display again and repeating certain calibration procedures. RCIL11DSP120BBG 1 RAIL12DSP0559BA 2 RCIL10DSP268BAG 3 When “Generic Tractor” is selected, the tractor application decides what default windows to place in the left hand area. The default planting windows are located on Run screens 1 and 6. When “Large Tractor” or “Medium Tractor” is selected, the tractor application decides what default windows to place in the left hand area. The default planting windows are located on Run screens 4 and 6. 1-2 1 - GENERAL Operators have the option with all tractor types to layout the Run screens any way they wish. The planter and as applied applications work the same and equally well with all tractor types. RCIL10DSP268BAG 4 RCIL11DSP116BBG 5 RAIL12DSP0560BA 6 Interface level – As Applied software The Interface Level window on the Display Setup screen in the Toolbox is an important selection for As Applied software users and may affect other applications on the display. The default setting is “Advanced” which adds the advanced windows to the Product Setup screen for As Applied software in the Toolbox. NOTE: Advanced mode is required for wizards, mapping, overlap control and desktop software analysis. Changing the selection to “Basic” hides the advanced windows on the Product Setup screen and causes the display to reset. With the reset, all active applications are changed to the basic interface level. See 3-31 for information about the differences between basic and advanced modes. Changing the selection to “Basic” has no effect on the Planter application, but may cause other applications running on the display to return to their default settings. Make this decision early to minimize your setup activities. Display recovery Use the Reset button on the About Planter screen in Diagnostics to reset the planter electronics when disabled. This may be required, for example, when a harness is loose or disconnected and a fault message occurs that the system has disabled itself. Connect the harness and then press the Reset button on the About Planter screen. The button resets the system electronics without the need to cycle power off and on and prevents loss of information on the data card. 1-3 1 - GENERAL ECU messages Software in the Rate, Frame, ClutchControl, and Steering ECU’s is able to trap software errors. If an ECU is offline a red error message will display indicating which ECU is offline. Press the “Ok” button and cycle the power to the display. When power is restored to the display, another error message will appear and display the details about the software error and the related ECU. Press “OK” to continue to use the software. RCIL10DSP954BAG 7 RCIL10DSP488BBG 8 If the Software error does not clear, new software may be required. In some cases, the software may also report that a specific controller's software is out of date. See your Case IH dealer for replacement software. Inactive planter software The planter software becomes inactive if no planter is detected by the display or if AFS AccuControl software is active on the display. If your planter software becomes unavailable, ensure that your planter is connected properly and AFS AccuControl software is not active. NOTE: The planter software will still appear on the Diagnostics > Versions screen even if it is inactive. 1-4 1 - GENERAL Planting with hydraulic drive planters [40054406] Hydraulic drive planters require different operating techniques than ground drive planters. Follow these guidelines for consistent seed spacing and population across the field, especially at the start and end of each pass. Maintain consistent engine RPM Engine RPM must remain high enough at all tractor speeds to provide sufficient flow to the hydraulic drives and fans and to provide constant PTO output to the PTO pump if equipped. Avoid using the throttle to slow the tractor when approaching the headland; this also reduces engine RPM. Downshift to a lower gear to maintain engine RPM and decelerate the tractor. If the throttle is used to slow a tractor with marginal hydraulic flow, vacuum fan pressure can drop so low when the planter is raised that the seeds fall off the seed disk. With no seed on the disk to start a new pass, a significant seed gap can be created. Avoid sudden changes in speed The hydraulic seed drives quickly compensate for speed changes (often within a second), but they cannot compensate quickly enough for sudden or drastic speed changes. When shifting gears while planting, shift one gear at a time. Spacing between seeds temporarily increases when speed is suddenly increased; spacing temporarily decreases when speed is suddenly decreased. Starting to plant from a stationary position Drive to the location where you intend to start planting and lower the planter to planting position. Turn on the fan(s), and press the Prime button to fill an empty seed disk with seed if required. Lower the planter, and at the same time press the Prime button while performing a normal acceleration to planting speed. Shift one gear at a time to achieve planting speed. If the prime feature is not used, your planter does not start planting until ground speed of 1.6 km/h (1 mph) is detected. This may require several feet of travel before seeds are planted, depending on how rapidly the tractor accelerates. If the seed disk is empty and the prime feature is not used to fill the disk, you may leave a 4.6 - 6.1 m (15 - 20 ft) foot gap before normal planting occurs. Use the prime function to load the disk with seed before planting. When planting low population crops, press the Prime button several times to completely fill the disk with seed. Starting to plant while moving – turning on headlands Drive to the location where you intend to start planting and lower the planter to planting position. Accelerate to planting speed by shifting one gear at a time. If there are seed gaps between the start of the row and first seed planted, or if seed drops on the ground prior to the start of the row, adjust the start plant position on the Frame Cal screen. The speed you use for setting the start plant position should be the speed you will normally use to start a new row, which may not be the same as your planting speed. Use a consistent speed when starting a new row, and then accelerate to your planting speed one gear at a time. The same guideline applies to the stop plant position. Stopping the planter Press the Apply button in the Master Control window to turn product application off before stopping the planter in planting position. Seed spacing is not affected since the seed drives are disengaged before any speed change occurs. To resume planting at this location, raise and back the planter to the spot where seed was last dropped. Then use the procedure from the previous page for starting to plant from a stationary position. 1-5 1 - GENERAL Avoid pressing the inching pedal (clutch) and allowing the planter to roll to a stopped position. Seed spacing will rapidly decrease, creating an accordion effect on the stand. Use the stop plant function by raising the planter before slowing to a stopped position. When the toolbar reaches the stop plant height, the product drives disengage. Since tractor deceleration occurs after the drives are disengaged, no seed bunching occurs. 1-6 2 - ICONS AND WINDOWS 2 - ICONS AND WINDOWS ICON LEGEND Status and warning icons [40054444] The below tables provide a quick overview of the status or warning icons which may display in the Status/Warning area while planting.
