Directive Provisions
The Claydon Hybrid Seed Drill conforms to Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC (see Appendix B –
Declaration of Conformity at the rear of the manual).
Airborne Noise Emissions
The A-weighted emission sound pressure level of measurements taken directly at the fan is
94dBA.
Warnings and Cautions
These warnings and cautions must be observed when operating the Hybrid Seed Drill.
Ensure total weight of tractor/drill combination does not exceed permitted limits and weight of tractor is sufficient for safe field and road use.
Do not allow anyone to stand between tractor and drill during coupling/uncoupling procedures.
For maintenance/adjustment of the drill ensure that it is lowered to the ground on the 3 point linkage.
Seed dressing is highly poisonous so protective measures-gloves, goggles, facemask must be used while loading the hopper and cleaning the machine after use with compressed air.
The hydraulic system on the machine operates under high pressure and pressurised hydraulic oil is dangerous. Connecting/disconnecting the drill must only be undertaken with the tractor engine turned off and the pressure in the hoses released.
Before operating the machine ensure no-one is standing within range of its turning circle-including the marker arms.

Hybrid Seed Drill
IMPORTANT INFORMATION for Drills with Hydraulic Stone Protection System:
BEFORE pressurising the stone protection circuit, ensure that the drills hydraulic free flow service is plugged in as the overflow pressure is directed into this circuit and dissipated back into the tractor through the free flow return, this will avoid damage to the stone protection circuit or fan motor (which are not
covered by warranty).
Always release the pressure from the stone protection system before working on the hydraulic system.
Release the pressure from the stone protection system for over winter storage and allow the rams to go to closed centres, therefore allowing the rods some protection against corrosion.
The Tungsten points on the leading tines should be protected by parking the drill on wooden boards.

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THE FAN RETURN IS PLUGGED INTO A ‘FREE FLOW RETURN’ ON
THE TRACTOR.
Connect the hydraulic hoses to the tractor spools in their relevant pairs. The 1” ISO female coupling with 18L male thread supplied with your drill will have to be connected to the tractor rear axle. If necessary, your tractor dealer will advise. The return pipe cannot just be inserted into the filler cap as the oil cannot return to the pump sufficiently quickly in many tractors. DO NOT CHANGE THE 1” ISO TO A DIFFERENT SIZE AS THIS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO
THE MOTOR, WHICH ARE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. The fan return cannot be connected to the tractor ISO.
Once the drill is attached and at the correct working depth, the top link should be set at an angle in which the convergence point between the upper and lower link arms should fall at the front axle (Figure 5). This can be achieved by altering the top link pin attachment points on the tractor and drill. This ensures stability and the mass of the implement is used correctly.

Transportation
Raise the machine off the ground and fold the wings fully upright (applies to 4m, 4.6m and
6m machines). Once folded, turn the hydraulic tap parallel to the cylinder to lock the wings in the upright position (Figure 6). To unfold the wings turn the hydraulic tap in the opposite direction and operate the spool valve.
Never transport along public highways without isolating the folding wings.
Figure 6 – Location of wing isolation hydraulic tap
Marker Arms
On delivery of the drill the marker arms may be in their shortest position for transport. Both marker arms will have to be set up for the working width of the machine. Additionally, should the driving position not be central (either through driver’s choice or position of the seat) it may be necessary to adjust the two markers to avoid gaps or overdrilling.
Figure 7 shows where to measure from in order to set the marker arm distance followed by a brief explanation on how to achieve this. It is advised to carry out this process when the drill is in the ground and at the correct working depth.
1. Marker arm extended
2. Marker arm folded in
3. Working width of the machine, from the centre of the middle tine to the centre of the marker point
Figure 7 – Marker arms
February 2013 Page 12 of 52
Hybrid Seed Drill
Measure horizontally from the centre of the middle (leading) tine on the machine to the centre of the marker point (the spring tine at the marker arm, that runs behind the wheel), with the marker arm swung out completely. This measurement needs to be equal to the width of the machine, e.g. for a 4.8m wide machine the measurement between the two points must be 4.8m. To lengthen the marker arm, slacken the U-Bolt, slide the arm out to the correct length and retighten.
If the marker arm tine is not aggressive enough during operation, then a more prominent mark can be made by adjusting the tine angle. This is achieved by slackening the bolts at the stub axle shaft and allowing the whole unit to pivot round on the slotted holes (Figure 8).
1. Stub axel bolts (x3)
2. Marker arm tine
3. Marker arm wheel
Figure 8 – Stub axel marker arm arrangement
When the drill is in transport, the Hydraulic valve taps (located on the hydraulic cylinders,
Figure 9) should be locked off to prevent the marker arms being unfolded.

Radar Recalibration Process
Once your Hybrid Seed Drill is fully connected to the tractor it is recommended that the drills radar should be recalibrated. Firstly a 100m stretch should be measured out and marked using two indicators. The drill should be in the ground and the tractor should be stationary at the beginning of the 100m run. It is recommended that the marker arm should be extended out so it can be used as a guide when crossing the second indicator.
February 2013 Page 13 of 52
Hybrid Seed Drill
Figure 10 displays how to navigate the Artemis control box in order to select the radar recalibration process once the tractor and drill are in position.
Figure 10 – Navigation process to radar recalibration
By selecting the “Auto-Cal” option the radar calibration procedure can now begin, this procedure should start from a standstill and come to a stop at the 100m indicator. The screens displayed on the Artemis box during this procedure can be seen in Figure 11.
Figure 11 – Radar recalibration sub menu
On completion of the 100m run a new factor will be displayed, the green return key must be pressed once more to accept and store the new factor. Once the new factor has been stored the control box will return to the Setup menu.

Changing/releasing the Stone Release Pressure
(Hydraulic Stone Protection Machines only)
The optional Stone Protection System is designed to safeguard the drill from damage when operating in stony conditions.
The free flow return on the drill MUST be plugged into the tractor otherwise the pressure released from the stone protection circuit can damage the hydraulic motor. The hydraulic fan motors are not covered by warranty.
Plug the hydraulic pipe running from the valve assembly (mounted under the seed hopper) into the tractor. Turn the tap to the ‘open’ position (parallel to the direction of the pipe Figure
12; this may release the pressure from the circuit back into the tractor depending on the spool valve position.
Figure 12 – Tap in open position
Before carrying out work on the hydraulic stone protection system, the pressure gauge
(highlighted in Figure 13) MUST read 0 with the spool valve in float or open position. It is dangerous to work on the hydraulic circuit while it is under pressure.
February 2013
Figure 13 – Stone Protection pressure gauge
Page 15 of 52
Hybrid Seed Drill
Using the tractor’s hydraulics, the circuit needs to be pressurised to the required pressure
(maximum pressure is set to 110 bar {1600 psi} from the factory). In the event that it is higher or lower, please call Claydon for guidance on how to adjust it (see Contact Details on front cover).
When the required pressure is met, turn the tap to the ‘off’ position (at a right angle to the direction of the hose Figure 14).
Figure 14 – Tap in closed position
Wing Balancing Kit – 6m Machines Only
The Wing Balancing Kit spreads the weight of the chassis and the full hopper over the whole width of the drill and not just in the centre section. In this way, it allows the wings to float and follow the contours of the ground.
To ensure the kit is working correctly the operator should operate the tractor spool valve to lower the wings, (spool needs to be set up so pushing the controller forward lowers the wings, the spool must also have a float position.) once the pressure has reached 10 bar (145 psi) the operator needs to push the controller fully forward into float to allow excess pressure to return to the tractor in the event of the drill hitting a large obstacle and the wings raising beyond their pre-set limit. The location of the pressure gauge can be seen in Figure 15.

Setting Up the Seeding System
As previously described, make sure the Artemis Control Unit and all electrical connections are correctly installed. Connect the two black round connectors to power up the Control
Unit.
If the Control Unit is beeping with a forward speed alarm this can be turned off by pressing the Metering On/Off button. To enable seeding, press the Metering On/Off button again.
The toggle switch comes attached to its mounting plate. Position the mounting plate to straddle the upright plate of the headstock. The drill should be placed on a solid surface while attached to the tractor. The toggle switch bracket should now be slid up or down the headstock plate until the switch is in the neutral position (in the middle) and just touching the bottom of the top link. Now tighten the pinch bolts up to lock the bracket into place. The purpose of the switch is to turn the seeding system on and off. With the drill in the working position and at drilling depth there should be approximately 5mm clearance between the switch and the underside of the top link.
Figure 28 – Spring toggle switch shown in work position
The seed level sensor can be set in three positions for different seed rates: the upper for high seed rates, the middle setting for medium seed rates and the lower position is ideal for low seed rates i.e. Oilseed rape.
1. Setting for low seed rates (Current position)
2. Setting for medium seed rates
3. Setting for high seed rates
To adjust the hopper level sensor setting:
From inside the hopper pull the end of the bracket nearest the sensor away from the hopper and over the locating bolt head. Move the sensor to the required position and locate on the appropriate bolt head.

To make sure seed is being metered and sown at the required rate it is necessary to take and weigh a sample from the metering unit. This weight is then entered at the Artemis Control Unit which will calculate and adjust for any error-i.e. the error being the difference in seed weight between what the control unit calculated would pass through the metering system per revolution and what was actually weighed. With the seed hopper empty follow the method below to calibrate your drill:
Small Seeds (OSR etc.) Larger Seeds (Cereals etc.)
1) At the metering unit wind in the handle until it is fully closed (the O position).
2) Turn red lever to intersect drive shaft key way (see Figure 35.1).
Turn red lever so that it is not in the drive shaft key way (see Figure 35.2).
3) Fan deflector lever needs to be set perpendicular to pipe direction (Figure 36.1).
Fan deflector lever needs to be set parallel to pipe direction (Figure 36.2).
4) If necessary, ensure that the white and red gears are aligned by pushing the white button so that the red gear will insert into the grey/white gear and push into place. This setting should always be used and gives high speed gearing at all times.
5) Wind out handle to about 15 on slider (20 max), see Figure 34. For more comprehensive details on slider positions consult Appendix C
(at the rear of the manual).
Wind out handle to about 80 on slider. The handle may be wound out further to achieve higher speeds (Figure 34). For comprehensive details on slider positions consult Appendix C.
6) Undo the U bracket and release the 90° bend. Place a bucket under the metering unit, prime the metering unit by pressing the white button and hold for three seconds to start the metering motor, this ensures the unit is full of seed prior to an automatic calibration. Press the white button again and hold for another three seconds to stop seed flow. Empty the bucket.
7) To commence the automatic calibration procedure, position a bucket which you have accurately weighed in its place under the metering unit. Press the white button and hold for three seconds, to start the metering motor. When you have obtained a good sized sample, press the white button again and hold for another three seconds to stop seed flow, (the motor may not stop immediately).
8) Weigh the bucket with the sample in accurately (grams for small seeds kg for large seeds).
9) Subtract bucket weight.
10) At the Artemis control unit select grams for small seeds or kg for large seeds (Figure 37).
11) Enter the weight measured (Figure 37).
12) Press the Enter key three times to correct the error (Figure 37).
13) Select the rate screen (middle arrow button to the right of the screen).
14) Type in the seeding rate you require on the number pad.
15) The Control Unit will automatically set the seeding rate and display the maximum drilling speed. If you consider this speed too slow you can wind the handle on the metering unit out further to allow more seed through and repeat the calibration process.
16) To check that the calibration is now correct, repeat the process. The error displayed should now be between 0 and 4%.
17) MAKE SURE you replace the 90º bend on the bottom of the metering unit.
18) Ensure the fan speed is set between 3200
- 3500 RPM
Ensure the fan speed is set between 4300 –
4500 RPM

Calibration Check
To ensure the metering unit has been calibrated correctly, it is possible to perform a calibration check by observing the “Cal. Factor”. This is checked by firstly pressing the Setup menu button, from the Setup menu the calibration check button should then be pressed
(Figure 38).
1. Calibration check button
Figure 38 – Calibration check option
Once the calibration check button has been pressed the screen in Figure 39 will be displayed and the “Cal. Fact” can now be seen. This value is the kg of seed dispensed for each revolution of the metering unit.
Figure 39 – Calibration Factor highlighted
This value is generated after every calibration and can now be compared against the calculated “Cal. Factors” in Appendix D (at the rear of the manual). If large discrepancies are present between the “Cal. Factors” in Appendix D and what is displayed on the control box, a recalibration may be required.

It is important that the machine is set level from front to rear to gain accurate and consistent seed depth between the front and rear seeding tines, this is achieved by adjusting the tractors top link. To confirm the seed drill is set up evenly, the depth wheels positioned across the width of the machine should be firstly set so the drills A-Shares scalp the field’s surface when in work (Figure 40).

Ground Level
Figure 40 – Front and rear tines scalping field’s surface
This can be achieved by setting the depth wheels to one of the measurements displayed in
Figure 41. The depth can be accurately set by measuring between the lugs on the depth wheel assembly (Figure 41). By altering the depth wheels to one of these measurements the front and rear A-Shares should scalp the field’s surface evenly, if the tractors top link has been set correctly.

2. Hook tape measure over square lug
For a 4m, 4.8m and a 6m drill measurement should be: 495mm
For a 3m drill measurement should be: 475mm

Set the Seeding Depth
Once the machine has been set level front to rear, the seeding depth can be set by readjusting the top links on the depth wheels (Figure 42) positioned across the width of the machine. Check that the adjusters are all the same length with a tape measure using the position lugs as previously described (you can measure between the pins if you prefer).

2. Hook tape measure over square lug
Figure 42 – Setting the seeding depth
Lower the machine into the ground and drive a short distance, brush away the tilth where the straw is still attached and find the original surface level of the field. Now brush back and find the depth of the seed compared to the original level of the field. Ignore how much soil is directly on top of the seed as this will level out and settle down to the original field level.

2. Original soil level
Figure 43 – Seed depth
To ensure the correct drilling depth has been achieved the depth of the drills A-Shares relative to the grounds surface should be examined. Figure 44 displays the recommended A-
Share depth for Oilseed rape (shoulder of A-Share should coincide with ground surface) and
Wheat (top of A-Share should coincide with ground surface).

Hybrid Seed Drill
Once the seed depth is set you can set the depth of the front tine, as a guide the front tine should be set to approximately:
120 - 150mm deep for Oilseed rape,
100mm for Cereals,
125mm for autumn Beans and Maize,
75-100mm for Spring Beans.
The front tine is adjusted by simply removing the pin, sliding the tine to the required depth position hole (Figure 45) and reinserting the pin.
1. Remove pin and slide tine up or down to required position
2. Wear hole
Figure 45 – Setting front tine depth
The top hole should not be used on brand new tines; it is only to be used once the tine has begun to wear. Do not operate the front tine deeper than 150mm.
Set Up the Level Board
The Level Board (also known as Batter Board or Ski Board) should be set up to drag along the top of the ridges with little down pressure. The down pressure can either be increased or decreased by altering the adjuster at the rear of the drill (Figure 46). The levelling boards are designed to level the ridges created from the leading tine and not to perform any kind of pressing operation. The Boards should not be set at too steep an angle and should have the appearance of skiing along the surface.
The green harrow tines may also be fitted to follow behind the levelling boards (Figure 46) or used as an alternative depending on the machine specification.

2. Level board
3. Level board/tine adjustment
Figure 46 – Level board
February 2013 Page 32 of 52
Hybrid Seed Drill
The level board angle is adjusted on the pin holes where the tool bar connects to the arms
(Figure 47). The green harrow tines should be situated at an acute angle with the tail of the tine positioned firmly and parallel to the ground. This angle can be adjusted by altering the pin holes on the connecting arm (Figure 47). Figure 47 displays our suggested setting.
1. Remove pin to alter angle of ski boards
2. Rear tool bar
3. Remove pin to adjust height of green tines
4. Connecting arm for double tool bar
5. Remove pin to alter angle of green tines
Figure 47 – Ski boards and green tines adjustment settings
The level board height is altered on the adjuster located on the swivel beams (Figure 48). The levelling boards can be lifted completely out of work with this adjuster or have some downward pressure applied to them. Depending on the field conditions the following Ski board settings are recommended and should be achieved using the adjuster:
Wet conditions - Remove pressure from ski boards
Dry conditions - Apply pressure to ski boards
Ideal conditions - Zero pressure (top link becomes loose during adjustment)

Care and Maintenance
Lubricating Points
Lubrication should be performed by using multi-purpose grease. An overview of the greasing points for the 4m to 6m Hybrid drill is given in Figure 49 and Figure 50, an overview for the 3m hybrid is given in Figure 51, with identification numbers corresponding to the detail of lubricating points in Figure 52. Not all lubrications points apply to all machines and some are multiple lubrication points, so some identification numbers may not appear or may be repeated.
N.B. At regular intervals lubrication should also be placed on the drills top link pin to prevent excessive wear from the upper link ball.

When new, the steel of the tine protrudes beyond the Tungsten, this is to protect the Tungsten when transporting new drills. After use the drill should be placed on wooden boards to protect the Tungsten. Great care needs to be taken when lowering the drills onto concrete.
Tyre Pressures
It is recommended that the wheels on the Hybrid seed drill should be inflated to a pressure of
30 psi (2 bar).
Changing Shares
On the seeding leg, hook the removal tool (supplied) over the top of the share and push the pin down, hit the top with a hammer to remove the share. Now simply slide the new share up the speed-Loc adaptor and hit the bottom with a hammer until the locking pin pushes back out.

Appendix D – Calibration Factors
Once the “Cal. Factor” value has been obtained from the calibration check procedure, the figure can then be compared with the results below; all the values within this section apply to large seeds only.
Firstly select the correct product (large seeds continue on following page), then locate the nearest application rate (Kg/Ha) followed by the drill width. The corresponding “Cal Factor” (Kg/rev) can then be compared to the value displayed on the Artemis control box. Although the values may not be an exact match, the figures should be within the same region, if not a recalibration may be required, e.g. If a 3m Hybrid drill containing Wheat was calibrated to apply 121Kg/Ha, the Artemis unit would display a Cal Factor of approximately 0.101 Kg/rev, shown below.
