Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 2 Description of Machine Width (Over Wheels) (Refer Table) The Duncan ‘Quantum’ is a double disc/hoe coulter arable drill. It has two steel boxes for either seed combinations or traditional seed fertiliser mixes. The boxes are mounted on a robust frame accommodating large diameter special purpose low compaction tyres for the arable situation. The ground engaging components are controlled by a pressure bar system, giving ample control on ground pressure, good transport clearance and contour following ability. Sowing depth is controlled by adjustable rubber tyred depth wheels. The quality European type peg roller seeder system handles all seeds from turnip and rape through to peas and maize. The seeder drive is via a clutch and variable speed gearbox from the drive wheel. For transport the drive is easily disconnected using a freewheeling type hub fitted to the drive wheel. Working Principle Height (Refer Table) The gearbox, pegged seed rollers and seeder flaps are set to give the desired seed rate. The double disc or hoe coulter, depending on the preference, creates the seed bed. Seed/fertiliser flows down the flexible convolute tubes between seeder and double disc/hoe coulter units dropping into the prepared seed bed. A suitably profiled depth wheel maintains the double discs at a predetermined depth and closes and compacts the soil over the deposited seed.

Replace missing or damaged safety signs on the machine and ensure that these remain clearly visible. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that anyone who operates, adjusts, lubricates, maintains, cleans or uses the machine in any way has had suitable instruction and is familiar with the information in this manual (particularly with regard to safety aspects). Operators and other users of the machine should be aware of potential hazards and operating limitations. Be Prepared for Emergencies Keep a first aid kit and fire extinguisher handy. Keep emergency numbers for doctors, ambulance, hospital and fire department near your telephone. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 5 SAFETY - General (Continued) Appropriate Dress Wear close fitting clothing and avoid rings or other forms of jewellery which could become caught in the machinery. People with long hair must have it securely fixed and confined close to the head. Refer to local safety standards for protective clothing and recommended safety equipment. Transport This Machine Safely Ensure that all linkage pins and security clips are fitted correctly. With trailing machines tow with the drawbar only, as this is the only safe towing point on the machine. Always check that bystanders (especially children) are well clear (front and rear) before starting and moving the tractor and the machine. Plan safe routes of travel, and be aware of power lines and other roadside hazards. Take particular care when towing implements on hillsides. Do not ride or allow passengers on the machine. This machine is not designed to carry passengers, and no riders are permitted. Road transport On public roads, • A speed of 30km/h must not be exceeded. • Do not operate during the hours of darkness unless standard lights are fitted and clearly visible. (This also applies when visibility is limited, e.g., in foggy conditions.) See the guidelines in the booklet on Overdimension Agricultural Vehicles, issued by the Land & Transport Safety Authority. Avoid tip-overs Avoid holes, ditches and obstructions which may cause the machine to tip over, especially on hillsides. Never drive near the edge of a gully or steep embankment - it might cave in. Slow down for hillsides, rough ground and sharp turns. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 6 SAFETY - General (Continued) Handle Agricultural Chemicals Safely All farm chemicals should be stored, used, handled and disposed of safely and in accordance with the supplier’s/manufacturer’s recommendations. Read the product label before using, noting any warnings or special cautions, including any protective clothing or equipment that may be required, ie. respirtor. Do not eat or smoke while handling sprays, fertilisers, coated seeds, etc. Afterwards, always wash your hands and face before you eat, drink, smoke, or use the toilet. Store sprays, fertilisers, coated seeds, etc. out of reach of children and pets, and away from food and animal feeds. Any symptoms of illness during or after using chemicals should be treated according to the supplier’s/manufacturer’s recommendations. If severe, call a physician or get the patient to hospital immediately. Keep the container and/or label for reference. Avoid High Pressure Fluids Avoid any contact with fluids leaking under pressure, because the fluids can penetrate the skin surface. Any fluid which penetrates the skin, will need to be removed immediately by a medical expert. Seek specialist advice on this type of injury. Relieve the pressure before disconnecting any hydraulic or other lines. Make all repairs and tighten all fittings before re-connection to pressurised fluid. Keep your hands and body away from any pinholes or high pressure jets. Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard instead of using your hand directly. Safe Work Practices All farm machinery is potentially dangerous and should be treated with caution and respect. Before starting the machine, ensure that all controls are placed in neutral and that bystanders are well clear. Check that the guards have been securely fitted and that any adjustments have been made correctly. Where possible, disconnect or isolate the drive mechanism to the implement. Lower the machine onto the ground when not in use. 7 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 SAFETY - General (Continued) Practise Safe Maintenance Keep the machine in safe working condition. Routine maintenance and regular servicing will help reduce risks and prolong the life of the machine. General Maintenance Accidents occur most frequently during servicing and repair. The following general rules must be followed when maintaining or working with machinery: z All operating and maintenance manuals must be read before and referred to while using or servicing any piece of equipment. z Turn off all machinery power sources and isolate the machine before making adjustments, doing lubrication, repairs or any other maintenance on the machine. z Ensure that the machine hydraulics are disconnected from the power source. z Wear gloves when handling components with cutting edges, such as any ground cutting components. z Beware of hazards created by springs under tension or compression when dismantling or maintaining the machine. z It is recommended that you clean the machine with a water blaster or similar apparatus before commencing maintenance. Make Sure the Machine is Well Supported When machinery is fitted with hydraulics, do not rely on the hydraulics to support the machine. During maintenance or while making adjustments under the machine, always lock the hydraulics and support the machine securely. Place blocks or other stable supports under elevated parts before working on these. Electrical Maintenance Disconnect the electrical supply from the tractor before doing any electrical maintenance. Welding With electronic equipment in modern tractors it is advisable to disconnect the machine from the tractor, or at least disconnect the alternator and battery before attempting any welding. Use Only Genuine Spare Parts Unauthorised modifications or non-genuine spare parts may be hazardous and impair the safe operation and working life of the machine. Excess lubricants must be disposed of safely so as not to become a hazard. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 8 SAFETY - Machine Specific This section of the manual gives specific guidelines for the safe operation of the Duncan Quantum. These guidelines were current at the time of publication, but may be superseded by later circumstances. They do not necessarily cover every possible hazard and must be read in conjunction with the SAFETY - General section (Page 4 - 8). Hazard Points on the Duncan Quantum The lists below are not all-inclusive and serve only to highlight the more obvious areas of risk. The decals attached to the machine are a general reminder that there are hazardous areas on the machine, rather than specifically highlighting all possible hazards.

No. 67311 Issue 1203 11 Transport General Warning Never connect hydraulic power to ram when the transport pin is engaged or the ram is in the stowed position on the drawbar. Operation of the ram in either of these cases could cause damage to the machine. Preparation of Machine after Transportation 1 fig 1 1 Lift machine from transporter onto firm, reasonably flat and level ground. 2 Locate jackstand so that it will support the drawbar in the down position. Remove the retaining pin (Fig 1/1) and lower the drawbar. (Re-use retaining pin in the lower turnbuckle location (Fig 2/3). 3 Position the hydraulic ram in the drawbar lug (Fig 2), reinsert pin and rest the top clevis on the frame. 4 Locate the turnbuckle (Fig 2/2) in position using the jackstand to adjust the centres until the retaining pins (Fig 2/3 & 4) can be fitted.Extend or retract the turnbuckle until the clevis pin can be located in the hydraulic ram top clevis. (Fig 2/5) 5 Extend the turnbuckle until the weight is released from the transport pin (Fig2/6). (This may require some effort as you are raising the entire weight of the coulters). 6 Remove transport pin (Fig 2/6), and stow in holder. Refer Fig 3. 7 Operate jackstand until transport leg can be raised. 8 Raise and secure transport leg. 9 Machine can now be connected to tractor, use jackstand to adjust drawbar height for hitch or alter the coupling mounting point. 4 2 6 5 3 1 fig 2 10 When connected to tractor put jackstand in the up position. Refer Fig 4. 11 Use turnbuckle to level machine. fig 3 fig 4 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 12 Preparation of Machine for Transportation other than by Towing 1 Fully retract ram. 2 Insert transport pin and secure with ‘R’ clips. 3 Put jackstand in the down position. 4 Operate jackstand until machine can be disconnected from tractor; disconnect from tractor. 5 Operate jackstand until transport leg can be locked in the down position. 6 Lower and lock transport leg in position. 7 Operate turnbuckle until it becomes ‘free’. 8 Remove turnbuckle, stow long pin in transport pin holder, (short pin will be used to secure drawbar in its raised, transport position). 9 Operate jackstand until ram clevis pins are free enough to be removed. Note - due to the snug fit of the ram clevis pins, frequent checking is required to determine when pins become free. 10 Remove both ram pins and lay ram on top of pressure bar. 11 Tilt up drawbar, and secure with one of the ram pins in lug on front of mainframe. 12 Put jackstand in the up position. Failure to adhere to these instructions may result in equipment damage. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 13 Transport Towing on the Road 1 Raise dragbars into transport position (fully raised). 2 Locate jack stand in transport position. Refer fig 5. 3 Ensure lighting and oversize warning requirements meet recommendations published by the local Land Transport Authority or equivalent. 4 Maximum towing speed 30 km/hr. For countries other than New Zeaand greater speed restrictions may apply, please refer to your local transport authority. fig 5 Ensure towing vehicle requirements are adequate for the towed vehicle e.g. mass, brakes. Refer to recommendations published by the local Land Transport Authority or equivalent. Braking when towing can cause the load to jackknife. Use extra care when towing in adverse conditions such as mud, inclines and sharp bends. Lower towing speeds are recommmended on farm roads/tracks and where one wheel is on or over a road verge. 5 6 If the machine is fitted with row markers or other vertical extensions check clearance under power lines en route. 7 Important - Before commencing towing on the road check that the freewheeling hub positioned at the gearbox end of the drill (Fig 7) is set to 4 x 2, not 4 x 4 which is only for sowing. Failure to set the freewheeling hub on 4 x 2 will result in unnecessary wear on seeder drive components and possibly damage. 1 fig 7 Attach safety chains to tractor. Refer Fig 6. Safety chains must be crossed over underneath the coupling and attached to the towing vehicle. The attachment points must be as close as practical to the towing coupling and one each side.The towbar on the towing vehicle must be rated for the towed mass. Do not remove or replace the safety chains provided with any other than those specified in the parts manual. Note: The safety chains are provided with sufficient length to cater for all towing vehicles. Safety chains must be shortened by cutting off excess length so that if the coupling fails the drawbar will not hit the ground. fig 6 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 14 Operation General Operation Guidelines 1 Use a sufficiently powerful tractor which is heavy enough to tow the drill safely. 2 Operate the drill at a speed of 6-12 km/hr (4-8 mph). In stoney and uneven ground conditions a lower speed is more appropriate 3 Check that the drill is level during calibration and while seeding. 4 Adjust the individual depth wheels to the required sowing depth. 5 Check tyre pressure before seeding. Refer P 3. 6 Double check seed rates before seeding. 7 Raise the coulters out of the ground when making any turns. 8 Raise the coulters out of the ground before backing up. 9 After prolonged storage, check to see that all drive mechanisms and hydraulic equipment are functioning correctly. Check that the seed tubes are not perished or blocked. Sowing Speed Typical travel speeds when sowing range from 6-12 km/hr in good conditions. In stoney and uneven ground conditions a lower speed is recommended to minimise rapid part deterioration. Sowing too fast can result in: 1 Poor contour following and uneven sowing depth. 2 Impact damage to: a Ground engaging components. b Bearings, housings & axles. c Fasteners & structural components. 3 More extreme conditions will result in greater vibration & uneven seed flow at low seeding rates. Adjusting the Double Disc/Hoe Coulter Pressure and Drill Depth 1 Operation - When the depth control ram extends the spring pressure bar is lowered. The depth control striker (Fig 8/2) attached to the pressure beam by the “T” bar pin (Fig 8/1) eventually contacts the depth control flag (Fig 8/3), actuating the depth control valve (Fig 8/4) limiting the stoke of the ram. 2 3 Adjust as Follows... 1 Unscrew the pin (Fig 8/1). 2 Raise the striker plate (Fig 8/2) to increase the sowing depth, i.e. increases the pressure on the coulter springs. Lower to decrease the sowing depth and pressure. 3 Retighten the pin (Fig 8/1). 4 fig 8 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 15 Double Disc / Sowing Depth The penetration depth of the double discs is dependant on two aspects. 1 The weight applied from the machine’s mass. 2 The press wheel adjustment. If the ground is hard and the double discs are not penetrating to the desired depth the press wheels will not be in contact with the ground. To increase the weight applied refer to “Adjusting the Double Disc/Hoe Coulter Pressure and Drill Depth”. Where the loading applied to the double discs exceeds the ground resistance the remaining load is transferred to the press wheels. The running height of the press wheel in relation to the double discs controls the sowing depth. See “Press Wheel Adjustment”. Note: Ground penetration ability will increase as the double discs sharpen and the paint wears off. Press Wheel Adjustment Press wheels are used to control the seeding depth and compact the soil after sowing to give good seed/soil contact. To adjust the press wheel setting push down the press wheel (1) and reposition the jaw lock pin (2) in the desired notch. Refer fig 9. Double Disc Scrapers 2 1 fig 9 Scrapers are fitted to the rear of the double disc casting and prevent soil buildup on the inside face of the disc. The scrapers will need to be adjusted as the discs wear (reduce in diameter). If not adjusted the scrapers will overhang the disc edge and wear unevenly. Scrapers are factory set in the correct initial operating position and don’t require adjustment before drill use. Press Wheel Scrapers A minimum clearance of 2mm is recommended between the scraper and the press wheel. Check the scraper clearance on full circumference regularly as press wheels can be eccentric. Best scraper performance may be dependent on the ground conditions. Level Drill Use the drawbar turnbuckle to tilt the drill so it is sitting level. An adjustment may be required after a short period of use because the paint wears off the discs and the discs sharpen which in turn improves the penetration abilities. 16 Pt.

No. 67311 Issue 1203 18 Basic Calibration Procedure Gearbox Setting Lever To set the seed rate at the gearbox, slacken the star knob by turning counter-clockwise and push from below into the position indicated in the Sowing Chart. Retighten the star knob firmly. Refer Fig 11. Important The settings shown in the Sowing Charts (kg/ha) can only serve as reference values. Deviations may occur caused by differences in the size, shape, density of the grain and by the dressing agent. Therefore prior to any sowing, always carry out calibration trials to accurately determine the actual seed rate. Using the stepless variable speed gearbox, the speed of the metering shaft and thus the seed rate is set steplessly. The higher the figure indicated on the scale (Fig 11) by the setting lever the greater the seed rate. ! fig 11 15T 19T Selecting the Gear Ratio The seed drill is designed with a two speed (high & low) gear ratio arrangement where moving the chain from 19 x 15 tooth ratio to 15 x 19 tooth ratio changes the output from high to low (high shown). Refer Fig 12. 19T 15T fig 12 To Change Speed Undo the wing nut and remove the guard. Pull the chain tensioner arm back against spring slip slack chain from one ratio to the other removing chain from largest sprocket first. Allow tensioner to take up slack and replace guard and wing nut. Refer Fig 12. B A C Setting Seeder Shutter Slides The varying flow properties of seeds require different shutter slide positions which may be found in the Sowing Chart for the individual type of seed. This corresponds to one of the three settings in Fig 13. Fig13/A Fig13/B Fig13/C Closed 3/4 Open Fully Open fig 13 10 1 1 10 Bottom Flap Settings The various seed sizes require matching bottom flap clearances below the metering wheel. The adjusting plate allows for 10 different settings. The required position for the seed type may be found in the Sowing Chart. The control levers are located on the LH end of the seedbox, (opposite end to the gearbox). Number “1” corresponds to the minimum (closed) position and “10” the maximum gap. Refer Fig 14. fig 14 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 19 Seed Calibration The calibration test should be done to confirm the required seed rate and is done with the drill stationary and level. Seed Calibration Procedures 1 fig 15 1 Remove the calibration tray from the brackets on the seedbox. Place the tray (or trays) on the support members below the seeders. 2 Position all the clear plastic seed diverters to redirect the seed into the calibration trays as in Fig 15/1. 3 Make sure all the shutters are open and set to the position indicated in the seed charts for your particular seed. Refer P 18, Fig 10 & P 19, Fig 13. 4 Agitator Shaft - Check the seed chart for hints on whether to connect or disconnect this shaft during seeding. Refer P 18, Fig 10 & Fig 16/1. 5 For the test, half fill the box with seed. If this is not possible make sure the seed is evenly distributed within the box. 6 Now the 3 basic settings must be made using the figures from the Sowing Charts P 18. For setting method refer... 1 P 19. P 19. P 19. P 19. fig 16 Gearbox Setting Lever. Selecting the Gear Ratio. Setting Seeder Shutter Slides. Bottom Flap settings. Note For seeds which are not covered in the Sowing Chart, use the figures for a seed of comparable size and shape. 7 fig 17 Place the crank handle over the hexagonal drive dog on the gearbox input shaft and turn clockwise until the seed flows consistently from the seeders. To ensure complete filling of the seed unit continue turning the crank until the calibration tray is approximately half full then empty into the seedbox. The drill is now ready for calibration. Refer Fig 17. 8 Turn the crank handle the required number of revolutions as in the table on P 21. Note The Calibration is usually done for 1/40th hectare. For very small seed rates or when using inaccurate scales (i.e. unable to measure to the nearest gram) the calculation based on 1/10th hectare should be used. Important - Before commencing sowing check that the freewheeling hub positioned at the gearbox end of the drill is set to 4 x 4, not 4 x 2 which is only for transport. Refer Fig 18/1. 1 fig 18 Scales must be accurate to 2 grams as any error can be multiplied by up to 40 giving inaccurate calibration results. Pt.

If there is any doubt as to the accuracy of these figures for the conditions, it is advisable to run at least 1 of the 2 checks on the calibration figures listed. Refer P 22, (Recalculating the Crank Turns), and/or P 23, (Wheel Slip Deviations).

If the resultant calculation does not produce the desired seed rate use the enclosed seed rate calculator disc to determine the correct gearbox setting. Refer Use of Seed Rate Calculator P 22. For 1/40 Hectare (250 m2) Calibration Seed Rate = Actual Seed Collected (kg) x 40 For 1/10 Hectare (1000 m2) Calibration Seed Rate = Actual Seed Collected (kg) x 10 Suggestion To be on the safe side and until confidence has been gained with the method of calibration it is advisable to conduct a second test at the newly determined gearbox setting. 11 Where a coated seed is used it is advisable to check the calibration after 1 hectare as dressings can tend to create a coating on the seed metering wheels thus changing the the flowing properties of the seed which in turn alters the seed rate. Recalculating the Rolling Circumference of Ground Wheel Tyre and Crank Turns Rolling Circumference It is especially important in arable situations to check the used for calibration was... rolling circumference of the tyre when in the cultivated area to be sown, and if necessary, recalculate the number of crank turns. Note - If a significant difference is found in the rolling circumference the H1 setting should also be adjusted on the hectaremeter. Refer P 26. 2.80 metres fig 20 To obtain the rolling circumference of the tyre half fill the seed/fertiliser boxes or simulate this loading. Mark the tyre of the drill at 900 to the ground and the point of contact with a mark on the ground. Move the drill forward 3 revolutions until the mark on the tyre is again at 900 to the ground. Measure the distance along the ground and divide by 3 to give the rolling circumference of the tyre. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 21 Calculation for Crank Turns if Rolling Circumference Changes Crank Turns = Area (in m2) Working width (H2) Area = 1/40 hectare = x Drive Ratio Rolling Circumference or 1/10 hectare = 10000 = 250 40 10000 = 1000 10 Working width - choose H2 from table for your machine Drive ratio = 19 :19 = 1 Rolling circumference - as measured above Example: 23 run machine, crank turns for 1/40 hectare, new rolling circumference = 2.65 m. Crank turns = 250 x 1 = 27.35 turns (for 1/40 hectare) 3.45 2.65 Use 27. 5 turns Use of Seed Rate Calculator Determining the gear box scale setting using the calculator. Usually the first calibration test yields a different seed rate. However with the value determined from the first test it is possible to determine the correct gearbox setting with the aid of the enclosed disc calculator, Fig 21. The disc calculator consists of 3 scales. An outer white scale (Fig 21/1) for all seed rates above 30 kg/ha and an inner scale Fig 21/2 for all seed rates below 30 kg/ha. On the middle coloured scale (Fig 21/3) are all the gearbox setting numbers to a maximum value of 100. fig 21 Setting Example (Desired seed Rate 125kg/ha) 1 2 3 4 From the calibration procedure (described on P 20,21) at a gearbox lever setting of “70” a seed rate of 175 kg/ha was obtained. Turn the inner disc until the measured seed rate of 175kg/ha (Fig 21/A) is in line with the related actual gearbox setting of “70”.(Fig 21/B) Read off from the disc rule the necessary gearbox setting for the required seed rate of 125kg/ha (Fig 21/C) In this example the correct setting is “50” (Fig 21/D) To be on the safe side the new gearbox setting can be checked by another calibration test. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 22 Calibration Deviations Deviations Between the Calibration Test and the Actual Seed Rate The most frequent cause for changes between the calibration test and the seed rate lies in the flowing properties of seed during sowing. These changes in properties generally result from reactions of the dressing agents to temperature, humidity or abrasion. These changes will become even more obvious when the bottom flaps are incorrectly set. If the setting of these flaps leaves too large a gap an uncontrollable additional flow of seed can occur during seeding; especially when assisted by the drill bouncing, a condition not simulated while conducting the calibration tests. For this reason the basic setting of the bottom flaps should be checked at regular intervals. For more details refer P 32, Fig 39. Residues from the seed dressing on the bottom flaps and metering wheels can also influence the flowing properties of the seed and thus the seed rate. In such cases a balance will occur only after a period of time and it is recommended to repeat the calibration test to confirm the seed rate after 2-3 seedbox fillings, nominally when the seed box is half empty. Only then will a balance occur and the seed rate will stabilise. Wheel Slip Deviations It is always possible with rubber tyred drills in extreme ground conditions to get wheel slip. Not normally a problem with cleated type tyres in good condition, but more so in the arable situation with the less agressive tread patterns normally found on this type of machine. The result; large differences between the calibration test and the actual sowing rate, obviously less seed deposited than required. The number of crank turns indicated in the table on P 21 is correct in most circumstances other than those mentioned above. Should you require to check this due to some unforeseen circumstances proceed as follows... Measure an area of 250 m2 (1/40 Hectare) - this corresponds to a machine travel of... Refer Fig 22.

Now move the machine forward over the measured distance, counting the number of turns of the crank handle as you go. Using this number of crank turns repeat the calibration. 23 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 Hints for Sowing with Variable Speed Gearbox Speed Change Sprockets This gearbox allows for stepless changes in the speed of the metering shaft and thus the seed rates. Due to the variations in seed type and application rates there are 2 speed ranges available. By changing from High Speed to Low Speed the range of settings and control is dramatically increased. The machines are supplied ex the factory set to the high speed configuration. Change to the Low Speed when the gearbox setting is down to 10 on the scale and the desired seed rate cannot be obtained. Replace guard and calibrate as required. Refer also to P 19. To Determine the Gearbox Setting after a Speed Change For determining the correct gearbox setting after the speed change, conduct the first test at 50. With the weight of seed collected find your correct setting with the aid of the disc calculator refer P 22, Fig 21. High Speed as Shown fig 23 Sowing of Fine Seeds 3 For sowing fine seeds the Quantum Drill is equipped as standard with a combined normal and fine seed “Elite” metering wheel (Fig 24/1). During grain sowing and other larger varieties of seed both the normal and fine seed metering wheels are coupled and both rotate. In order to convert the seed drill to sow fine seed insert the crank handle and rotate clockwise until the holes (Fig 24/2) of the fine seed wheel are visible. Using the tool supplied (Fig 25/1) disengage the the pin inside the hole so that the normal metering wheel rotates freely on the metering shaft. At this time it would be advisable to close any shutter slides not required for the fine seed sowing. When seed is to be sown again using the normal metering wheel press the pin, from the normal metering wheel side (opposite direction to before), using the tool, back into the hole of the fine seed wheel thus reconnecting the drive between the two. 1 2 fig 24 1 1 fig 25 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 24 Small Seeds Calibration with Disconnected Agitator Shaft 1 fig 26 The fine seed metering wheel used in Duncan Drills is especially well suited for sowing small seeds such as rape. Due to the intensive action caused by the agitator the seeds can adhere to each other, or be damaged, causing irregular sowing/germination. Therefore it is recommended that when sowing small seeds, especially oil seeds and thin shelled seeds, the drive to the agitator is disconnected. To do this remove the lynch pin as shown in Fig 26/1. Deviations between the calibrated and actual seed rate can occur when residual dressing agent sticks to the bottom flaps and thus slows the flow of seed. Before beginning the actual calibration test fill the calibration trays by turning the crank handle at a high speed around the 90 setting on the gearbox scale. This will cause an immediate buildup of the dresssing agent on the flaps. Return the contents of the calibration trays to the seed box and proceed with the actual calibration. Due to the residue buildup on the flaps your calibration will now reflect accurately the required seed rate. It is advisable with small seeds to use the 1/10 hectare method for your calibration, thus cutting down on weighing errors. Note - Remember to reconnect the agitator shaft as required for other seeds otherwise the consistency of seed rate will be affected. fig 27 Sowing Peas Peas having the size and shape as illustrated in Fig 27 (e.g. White Field Peas), can be sown without problems with all Clough Drills with this type of metering wheel. The flap should be set to a gap of at least “3” on the flap setting lever. Refer Page 19, Fig 14. With these peas it should not be necessary to run the agitator shaft. Peas having the size and shape as illustrated in Fig 28 (e.g. Green or Garden Peas), tend to bridge inside the seedbox and do not flow freely. This multi-faceted pea requires agitation for sowing. fig 28 Caution - When resetting the metering wheels on the seeder shaft Care should be taken when tightening the grub screws (Fig 24/3) on the fine seed wheel. Adjust the grubscrew until the movement of the metering wheel just stops, then tighten no more than 1/8 of a turn. Do not overtighten as this can result in breakages while operating and may render the warranty on these units void. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 25 Hectaremeter Settings Setup Refer to the installation and operation instructions supplied with your hectaremeter kit (Fig 29/1) for information on installation, calibration, operation and servicing. The table below (Fig 30) gives the effective working widths for the various machines depending on the machine size and the row spacing. The calibration procedure described in the hectaremeter handbook involves accurately measuring the circumference of the tyre and entering and storing this value in the meter. The effective sowing width also needs to be entered. For measuring the tyre circumference refer P 22, To obtain the rolling circumference of the tyre. 1 fig 29 Note - If under certain operating conditions a calibration check indicates a significant difference in the rolling circumference of the tyre, the hectaremeter should be recalibrated by changing the H1 setting for the period of operation under those conditions.

No. 67311 Issue 1203 27 Maintenance & Care General Safety and Accident Prevention Advice 1 Make sure that if the tractor remains attached to the drill that the ignition key is removed. 2 During maintenance the drill should be supported in such a manner that if hydraulic failure was to occur the machine would still be adequately supported. 3 Wear gloves when handling components with cutting edges such as worn discs etc... 4 Disconnect the electrical supply from the tractor before doing any electrical maintenance. 5 Refer to safety sections for more safety information. General Cautionary Maintenance Advice 1 Electric Welding - With the electronic equipment in modern tractors it is advisable to completely disconnect the implement from the tractor, or at the very least disconnect the alternator before attempting any welding. 2 Hydraulics - Ensure hydraulic couplings (male & female) are clean before connecting. Dirty couplings will result in hydraulic oil contamination and hydraulic cylinder seal damage and bore scores. This in turn will result in oil leakage past the piston seals. No filter is fitted to the hydraulic system. If hydraulic fittings and oil supply are not going to be kept clean it is recommended that a filter be fitted to prevent hydraulic cylinder damage. 3 Water Blasting - Water blasting, steam cleaning or other pressurised cleaning processes can force dirt etc. into undesirable places that may cause damage or rapid part wear to items such as bearings, seals, chains, bushes etc. Caution must be exercised. 4 Box set lifting eye profile - these profiles are are provided for easy removal of the dual boxes from the side frames. Do not use when boxes are loaded nor to lift machine. 28 Pt.

(1000 Ha or annually whichever occurs first). 2 Gearbox The oil level in the gearbox can be seen in the oil gauge window Refer Fig 32/1. Changing the gearbox oil is normally not necessary. For refilling the oil remove the 1/2” BSP plug on the top face of the gearbox, hydraulic oil Castrol Hyspin AWH 32-68 should be used. The total filling capacity is 1.25 litres. . DO NOT OVERFILL. 1 fig 32 2 3 4 5 Roller Chains All drive chains should first be checked after 20 hours of operation and thereafter every 100 Ha of operation as follows:The metering wheels of the seed drill are driven via roller chains from the drive wheel. The roller chain (Fig 33/1) and spring loaded tensioner (Fig 33/2) should still be checked periodically by removing the cover on the inside of the drive wheel. The other drive chains have spring loaded tensioners, but should still be checked at regular intervals as previously mentioned. Refer P 29. Removing the guard from the outside of the gearbox gives access to the tensioner on the input drive. All other tensioners on the output end of the gearbox are accessed by removing the fibreglass cover around the gearbox output sprockets. Cleaning of the roller chains is recommended after long periods of operation. Remove the chain, wash in kerosene and then dip them in heated grease, oil or spray them with a suitable commercial roller chain lubricant. Grease Nipples The 3 pressure bar pivot pins (Fig 34/1) and the clutch lever pivot pin (Fig 35/1) need to be greased at regular intervals (every 20 to 30 hours of operation). Grease nipples and the grease gun should be carefully cleaned before use and dirty grease should be fully discharged from the bushes. Wipe off excess grease and dispose of safely. 1 fig 33 1 fig 34 1 Clutch The clutch which is located inside the RH side frame should be removed, flushed dried and re-assembled annually. Use NO LUBRICANT such as CRC. For assembly diagram refer P62 in the parts section of this manual. fig 35 Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 30 1 6 Coulter Bearings Front coulter bearings are sealed and do not require lubrication. Check discs for any lateral movement (wobble) on a regular basis. Replace bearings if there is any noticeable wobble. 7 Double Disc Scrapers The double disc coulter is equipped with two scrapers to remove sticking soil. These scrapers have been set by the factory in such a way so that they lightly touch the discs without having a noticeable braking effect. After extensive use of the drill a certain amount of wear may be evident on the scrapers. The scrapers should be reset using the adjusting bolt so they just touch the discs as described above. Refer Fig 36/1. In some cases if a notch has formed on either of the blades by the abrasive action of the coulter disc you may need to re-grind the leading edge to give optimum cleaning action or replace. 8 Double Disc Bearings & Seals Check that the discs are free from wobble and the bearings run smoothly. Replace any worn bearings. Check for dirt buildup behind the rubber ‘V’ seals on the double disc castings. Clean right into the corner as in Fig 37 and check that the “V” seal bearing surface is not damaged and is free from rust. It is recommended to replace the inner “V” seals when the bearings are replaced. 9 Compensating for Disc Wear When discs wear in diameter (to 13”) remove the M16 light flat washer (37/1) so the discs meet. Also remove the nylon washer (37/2). fig 36 Double Disc Casting 2 1 Remove buildup of dirt behind the ‘V’ seal. Clean right into this corner. 10 Press Wheels Scrapers will wear.The rate being dependent on the ground conditions. The minimum clearance is 2mm. In some conditions a greater clearance may give better performance. fig 37 11 Tyre Pressure (Main Wheels) The recommmended tyre pressure is 2.4 - 3.8 bar (35-55 psi). Check tyre pressure regularly to ensure correct pressure is maintained. Weekly checks are recommended. Pt. No. 67311 Issue 1203 31 15 Length of Seed/Fertiliser Tubes These tubes can stretch over a period of time and require checking at approximately 6 monthly intervals. Check tubes at the operating depth. Shorten if necessary to avoid bends which will restrict the flow of seed/fertiliser. Im po rta nt fig 38 ! 16 Bottom Flaps The required seed rate is controlled by both the metering wheels and the bottom flaps. The seed flows from the seed box into the metering wheel housings. Inside the metering wheel housing (Fig 38/1) the seed is caught between the metering wheel (Fig 38/2) and the bottom flap (Fig 38/3). The metered amount of seed is transported by the metering wheel to the edge of the bottom flap where it drops off into the seed guide tube which leads to the coulter. Varying grain sizes require the matching of the flap clearance to the different grain sizes. This matching is done by raising or lowering the bottom flaps by using the flap adjusting lever on the LH end of the seed box. If larger foreign particles, e.g. stones get between the metering wheel and the bottom flap, the bottom flap can give way downwards. A strong return spring (Fig 38/4) brings the bottom flap immediately back into the working position. The metering system should be checked every 1/2 year or before any sowing period with an empty seed box and empty metering housings. Use the following proceedure: Put the bottom flap setting levers (located on the LH end of the seed boxes) in position “1” for the front box and position “1” for the rear box. Refer Fig 39. By turning the metering wheel shaft by hand check the flaps are all set to a gap of 0.1 to 0.5mm (refer Fig 38). To adjust individual flaps use the spring tensioning screw (Fig 38/5) Note: Re Maintenance Schedule (P29) fig 39 Where the frequency is given in terms of time of use (e.g. weekly) or area covered (e.g.100 Ha) perform the maintenance task based on whichever occurs first. Storage Preparing the Machine for Storage. Locate a dry level surface. The machine should be stored wherever possible with the rams retracted.
