It assumes that setup items have been completed. Experience, machine familiarity and the following information will lead to efficient operation and good working habits. Always operate farm machinery with safety in mind. General Description Field operations are controlled by a tractor cab hydraulic lever. When openers are lowered, a mechanical clutch engages, and the left end wheel drives the seed meter shaft. Seed and fertilizer meters operate at a rate proportional to ground speed, as set by sprockets and/or rate handles, based on the rate charts, and calibration. Seeding depth and furrow coverage are controlled by drill down pressure and row unit setup. Pre-Start Checklist ❑ Lubricate the drill as indicated under Lubrication, “Maintenance and Lubrication” on page 42. ❑ Check the tires for proper inflation according to “Appendix A Reference Information” on page 58. ❑ Check for worn or damaged parts and leaks. Repair or replace before going to the field. ❑ Check all nuts, bolts and screws. Tighten bolts as specified on “Torque Values Chart” on page 60 High Pressure Fluid Hazard: Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for suspected leaks. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs, seek immediate medical attention from a physician familiar with this type of injury. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions 17 Raising Openers for Transport Opener sub-frame is on a dedicated hydraulic circuit. The openers raise and lower as a group, controlled from a tractor cab lever. The following instructions presume that the openers are lowered, and need to be raised for transport. Opener Pivot Stop Loss of Control Hazard: Failure of the hydraulic cylinder during transport causes the openers to drop suddenly, which could lead to serious road accidents, injury or death. To prevent an accident, always install the pivot-stop pin in the transport-lock position before transporting the drill. Refer to Figure 6 1. Hitch the drill to a suitable tractor. See “Hitching” on page 14. 2. If markers are installed, verify that markers are folded and secured with transport pins. See “Secure Markers” on page 18. If not, secure them during lift operations to secure pivot stop for transport. 1 2 Marker Pinch/Crush/Sharp Object Hazards: Secure markers before setting pivot pin. Moving markers can pinch at mounts crush under arms. Marker disks are sharp. If not secured by transport pins, markers will fold and unfold during lift and lower operations. 3 3. Retract the opener lift cylinder to fully raise the openers. Put the tractor circuit control in Neutral to hold cylinder position. Figure 6 Removing Down-Pressure Pin 16652 4. Note which lettered (A-E) down-pressure pin hole 1 was previously in use. This is likely to be the same hole used when the drill next plants. 5. Remove the pin from the down-pressure adjustment hole. Negative Tongue Weight Hazard: Raising openers on an unhitched drill causes the drill tongue to rise suddenly, which could cause serious injury or death. Be certain that drill is hitched securely to your tractor drawbar and the safety chain is securely attached to tractor before raising openers. 3 Refer to Figure 7 6. Insert and secure the pin 2 in its transport lock position 3 .

The cross-pin will seat during the next rotation of the wheel. 16654 818583C Secure Markers If markers are installed, they must be folded and locked for transport. Transport/Crush/Sharp Object Hazards: Do not transport with markers unsecured by pins. A lowering marker arm could cause a serious highway accident or strike other objects and persons outside of the lane. A circuit in Float, a disconnect at the hitch, or hydraulic hose damage could result in a marker arm descending. Secure markers before transport. 1 1. To avoid excess wear on opener discs, raise openers and secure at raised with opener pivot stop (page 17). Refer to Figure 9 2. Check that marker transport pins are not in transport holes 1 (outboard holes). 3. As needed, fold a marker on each side using the lift circuit (page 30). As each marker reaches fully folded, set the lift circuit to Neutral. Figure 9 Marker Transport Pin 36274 4. Insert and secure the lock pin. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions 19 Transport Towing the drill at high speeds or with a vehicle that is not heavy enough could lead to loss of vehicle control. Loss of vehicle control could lead to serious road accidents, injury and death. To reduce the hazard: ▲ Do not exceed 20 mph (30 km/h). ▲ Do not tow a drill that, when fully loaded, weighs more than 1.5 times the weight of the towing vehicle. In the following table, multiply the total drill weight by 0.67 (23) to determine minimum tractor weight.

Main seed only. No small seeds or markers. 2. Small seeds and markers. Transport Checklist Before transporting the drill, check the following items: ❑ Transport only with a tractor of proper size. See “Specifications and Capacities” on page 58. ❑ Warning Lights: Always use tractor and drill warning lights in transport. ❑ Safety Chain in Place (page 13): Attach safety chain to an anchor on tractor. ❑ Clearance (page 58): Know the maximum dimensions of the drill in transport and follow a route that provides adequate clearance from all obstructions. ❑ Drill Securely Hitched (page 13). ❑ Openers Raised and Locked Up (page 17). ❑ Tires: Check tires for proper inflation. “Appendix A Reference Information” on page 58 ❑ Lockout Hub (page 18) Disengaged. 2015-09-16 ❑ Stopping Distance: Allow sufficient stopping distance and reduce speed prior to any turns or maneuvers. If the drill is transported full, allow extra stopping distance. Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions 20 ❑ Markers (page 18): Folded and locked. ❑ Bystanders: Check that no one is in the way before moving. Do not allow anyone to ride on the drill. ❑ Road Rules: Comply with all national, regional and local laws when transporting on public roads. Opener Operation Opener sub-frame is on a hydraulic circuit that is shared with markers if markers are installed. The openers raise and lower as a group, controlled from a tractor cab lever. If markers are installed, and unlocked, each marker side unfolds and refolds, alternating left-to-right, with each opener lift and lower cycle. Lowering and Raising Openers Crushing Hazard: You will be seriously injured or killed if you are caught between raising openers and drill frame. Always stop tractor engine, set parking brake, and remove key before adjusting or servicing openers. Keep bystanders well away during drill operation. The following instructions presume that the openers are raised and locked up for transport. Refer to Figure 11 1. Determine the down-pressure pin hole , (lettered A-E), to be used for the current conditions. If you have no preference developed, plan to use hole “E”. See page 32 for further information. 1 2. If markers are installed, verify that markers are folded and secured with transport pins. See “Secure Markers” on page 18. If not, secure them during lift operations to secure pivot stop for transport. Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 3. With the drill hitched to a suitable tractor, retract the lift cylinder slightly to free the pin 2 in its transport lock hole 3 position. 4. Put the tractor circuit control in neutral to hold cylinder position. Negative Tongue Weight Hazard: Raising openers on unfolded, unhitched drill will cause drill tongue to rise suddenly, which could cause serious injury or death. Be certain that drill is hitched securely to your tractor drawbar and the safety chain is securely attached to tractor before raising openers and unfolding drill. Marker Pinch/Crush/Sharp Object Hazards: Secure markers before setting pivot pin. Moving markers can pinch at mounts and crush under marker arms. Marker disks are sharp. If not secured by transport pins, markers will fold and unfold during lift and lower operations. 5. Remove the pin from the transport lock position and transfer it to the desired down-pressure adjustment hole. Secure the pin. 2 6. Extend the circuit to lower the openers. 7. When the lift cylinder has reached the end of its travel, set the tractor circuit lever to Neutral to hold it there. Do not set the circuit to Float, or down pressure is significantly reduced. Figure 10 Unlocking Openers 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 16636 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions At the start of planting, stop early in the first pass and check drill level. The most consistent planting is achieved when the drill frame is level with the ground, and the tops of the opener frames are level with the ground. 21 1 If planting is unsatisfactory in tractor tire tracks, see “Opener Height” on page 35. Check periodically during planting. Drill weight changes as seed and fertilizer are applied. 3 Loading Materials To determine the weight of a fully loaded drill, see “Weights for Tractor Requirements” on page 19. Use this weight when checking tractor capability. Figure 11 Setting Down-Pressure Pin 16652 The drill must be hitched for seed loading. Load slightly more material than needed, because consumption rates can vary between compartments even though the furrow rates are identical. Main Seed Box Loading 1. Check that all meter doors are positioned for the seed size, and not set for clean-out. See Seed Rate Manual. If loading prior to transport, set them to position 1 (smallest seed). 2. Install or remove optional seed plugs as desired for the row spacing planned. See “Seed Tube Plug (Small Seeds)” on page 56. 3. If loading prior to transport, and calibration has not yet been done, set Seed Rate Handles to 0. At 0, and with the doors at 1, no seed can leak during transport. 4. On 1300F (fertilizer-capable) drill models: • Check that any offset box dividers are set to the desired compartment ratio. See “Offset Box Divider” on page 55. • Check that the seed/fertilizer flap is set as desired (separate compartments, or all seed). See “Fertilizer Box Operation” on page 23. • If seeding only from the forward (seed) compartment, flip the spill flap to the rear to prevent seed from entering the fertilizer compartment. See “Fertilizer Box Operation” on page 23. 5. Take all necessary materials safety precautions if the seed is treated. 6. Load seed evenly into seed boxes. 7. To reduce wear, remove main shaft drive chains for small seed boxes. 2. Take all necessary materials safety precautions if the seed is treated. 3. Load seed evenly into seed boxes. 4. To reduce wear, remove main shaft drive chains for main seed boxes. Loading Fertilizer Load fertilizer after transport if possible. Some spillage can occur through meters during transport, even with the drive system disengaged. 1. Check that fertilizer clean-out door is closed and all latches are secure. 2. Check that any offset box dividers are set to the desired compartment ratio. See “Offset Box Divider” on page 55. 3. Check that the seed/fertilizer flap is set as desired. See “Fertilizer Box Operation” on page 23. 4. Flip the spill flap to the front to prevent fertilizer from entering the seed compartment. See “Fertilizer Box Operation” on page 23. Possible Chemical Hazards: Take all necessary materials safety precautions. 5. Load fertilizer evenly into fertilizer compartment. 6. To reduce wear, remove drive chain for seed box not used. Small Seeds Box Loading 1. If loading prior to transport, and calibration has not yet been done, set Seed Rate Handles to 0. At 0, no seed can leak during transport. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions 22 Setting Materials Rates Seeding and application rates are independent for all boxes (changing rates on one does not affect the others). Rate setting steps, and rate calibration, are different for each box. See Seed Rate Manual (175-157B). All of the boxes use fluted-feed meters. Actual rates frequently vary from chart rates due to variations in materials, conditions and application speed. Calibration is strongly encouraged. It is also wise to monitor material consumption in the field, both to confirm the calibration, and to catch any stoppages or other malfunctions. Calibration is described in the rate setting topics of the Adjustments section. Note: No meters operate if the lock-out hub is disengaged. Be sure to engage the hub after transport and calibration. Initial Seeding Depth Refer to Figure 12 1. Set opener seeding depth by adjusting press-wheel height 1 . To adjust, first raise openers slightly, then lift and slide T handles 2 on top of openers. Adjust all press wheels to the same height. T handles adjust at 14 inch (6.4 mm) seeding depth change per minimum handle step. F 2 B • For more shallow seeding, slide T handles forward F toward implement. • For deeper seeding, slide T handles rearward B away from implement. 2. While seeding, remember: • Keep the top of the opener frames level with the ground for consistent seeding depth. • Raise openers before turning. Never back up or turn sharply with openers in the ground. Doing so will plug openers and may damage equipment. • Check periodically for plugged openers and hoses. 1 For information on opener adjustments, see “Row Unit Adjustments” on page 34.

There is no harm in operating the lift circuit with markers locked up. 1. Set the lift circuit remote to Float to relieve pressure. Set the circuit to Neutral to prevent movement. Shut off the tractor. Transport/Crush/Sharp Object Hazards: Verify that the lift circuit is in Float or Neutral before removing transport pins. Keep all persons well clear of markers during lift/lower marker fold/unfold operations. Un-pinned markers fold and unfold when the lift circuit is extended or retracted. Markers have multiple pinch points. Lowering arms can crush. Marker disks are sharp. Refer to Figure 21 2. At each marker, remove the transport pin 1 from the (outboard) locking holes. 3. Move the pin to the (inboard) storage holes 2 , and secure with hairpin cotter. If marker fold and unfold speeds are known to be satisfactory, the markers are now ready for field use. To adjust marker speed, see page 45. Marker Field Operations Markers share a common remote circuit with the lift cylinder. Marker cylinders are controlled by an automatic sequence valve that restricts oil flow to one marker at a time. 1 2 • Whenever a lift operation is performed, an extended marker folds. • Whenever a lower operation is performed, a folded marker extends. You may need to allow extra time for both opener and marker operations to complete, compared to just raising and lowering openers. Figure 21 Marker Transport Pin Release 36274 Operating One Side Only Leave the unused side in transport lock. Operate the lift circuit twice for each raise and lower cycle. Two Sides Out it is possible to both deliberately and unintentionally deploy markers on both sides. At the start of lower/unfold, briefly reverse the level for the lift circuit, then resume lower (before the lowering marker is fully raised). This causes the other side to enter unfold as well. If two markers are out unintentionally, perform a fold. Upon the next unfold, only one side deploys. Folding with Both Sides Out Perform two complete lower/raise operations. The markers fold one side at a time. Install lock pins as appropriate for the next movement. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions 27 Acremeter Operation The acremetera counts shaft rotations whenever the shaft is rotating - normally this is only with the drill lowered and in motion. The meter is programmed to display rotations as acres or hectares, when using all rows, factory-specified tires and tire inflations. Note: Unusual conditions and/or non-standard row spacings can cause the acremeter tally to vary somewhat from actual acres planted. 1 Refer to Figure 22 2 Acremeters supplied with model 1300/F drills have varied over time.

See page 14. ❑ Seed and fertilizer rates set per charts and calibration. See Seed Rate Manual. ❑ Lockout hub engaged. See page 18. Note: If re-using calibrated rates from a prior planting, make sure that meter scales are correctly set, and not still at zero for transport. make sure chains are in place for boxes to be used. ❑ Record acremeter reading if acreage monitoring is desired. ❑ Down-pressure adjustment pin configured. See page 20. ❑ One or both markers released from transport lock (if installed and to be used). See page 26. ❑ Materials loaded. See page 21. 1. Pull the raised drill into starting position at the first pass. 2. Lower the drill (page 20). 3. If markers are installed and to be used, verify that the desired marker side is deployed, otherwise raise and lower a second time. 4. Pull forward at the intended planting speed. Optimum planting speed depends on conditions, and is typically between 5 to 8 mph (8 to 13 km/h). If openers are bouncing, or not operating at a consistent penetration depth, reduce speed. 5. Stop shortly into the first pass and check drill level. Both drill frame and opener frames need to be parallel to the ground for most consistent results. Also check the seed furrow in between the openers and press wheels, and make sure that seed is being delivered, and being covered. 6. At the end of each pass, retract the tractor circuit for opener lift. Seeding stops automatically when the openers are raised. Field Results Risk: For consistent opener down pressure, fully extend the cylinder every time you lower the openers. Equipment Damage Risk: Do not make sharp turns with openers in the ground. Equipment Damage Risk: Never back up with openers in the ground. Seed tube plugging and equipment damage is likely. Note: Some row spacings have unequal numbers of row units served by each box compartment. The compartments with more rows run out of material first. 7. Check material consumption to ensure that it is being used at expected rates, and that you don’t run out. 8. Check opener level and planting depth, which can change as the drill empties and becomes lighter. 9. At the conclusion of planting, raise the openers and lock them up by moving the down-force adjustment pin back to the transport lock hole (page 17). 10. If substantial quantities of materials remain, consider performing a clean-out prior to transport (page 29), to make a safer load, and reduce wear on the tires. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions 29 Materials Clean-Out Main Box Clean-Out Refer to Figure 23, which depicts the seed cup door handle 1 in a normal operating position. 1. Set the Seed Rate Handle to zero (0) for the section of the drill to be cleaned out. This moves the seed cup sprockets out of the seed path. 2. Position a tarp or bucket under each row or set of rows to be cleaned out. 3. At the seed cup for that row, pull the door handle 1 out of the operating detent range, and swing it down to position 2 . 1 2 4. Open the main seed box and use a small brush to sweep seed toward seed cups set to clean-out. If seed does not flow freely, inspect seed cup, hose and seed tubes for obstructions. Figure 23 Seed Cup Clean-out 26211 Figure 24 A Fertilizer Clean-out Latch 16376 Figure 25 Dew Shield at Openings 16382 5. Wash out the seed box with high pressure water. It is not necessary to operate the seed meter drive shaft for clean-out. With the Seed Rate set to zero, nothing moves inside the seed cups; however, an inspection of the flutes for excess wear and damage does require shaft rotation. Set the Seed Rate Handles to 100 and disengage the lock-out hub. With openers lowered to engage the clutch, the seed meter jackshaft can be slowly turned with the calibration crank, while another person inspects the flutes from the open seed boxes. Fertilizer Box Clean-Out After applying fertilizer, clean drill boxes as soon as possible. Fertilizers often contain chemicals corrosive to metal. Refer to Figure 24 With a small scoop or can, remove as much fertilizer as possible from drill boxes. Clean-out releases material across the entire length of a section box. Have collection equipment prepared. Release all clean-out latches on a drill section, and open clean-out door. Leave clean-out door open until after washout. Refer to Figure 25 Wash inside of drill boxes with water under high pressure. To aid clean out, lift vinyl dew shield and spray into fertilizer trays (with clean-out door open). Let drill boxes dry before closing clean-out doors. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Operating Instructions 30 Small Seeds Box Clean-Out 1. Open lid of each box and scoop out as much seed as possible. 2. To recover remaining seed, place a collection tarp under the small seeds tubes at the openers. 3. Raise drill. 4. Set seed rate handles to 100. 5. Rotate calibration crank or end wheel until no seed flows. 6. If a vacuum cleaner is available, remove any residual seed from top of meters. Parking Following these steps when parking for less than 36 hours. For longer periods, see Storage, the next topic. 1. Fold and lock both markers (page 26, if markers installed and used). 2. Position drill on a level, solid area. 3. Remove jack from storage location on top of tongue and pin it on post on the top of the tongue as shown on page 14. Extend jack until weight of tongue is on jack. Leave tractor hitched for the moment. 4. Lower openers and reduce hydraulic circuit pressure to zero (Float circuit). Negative Tongue Weight Hazard: This drill has a negative tongue weight when openers are raised. Lower openers and remove hydraulic pressure before unhitching the drill in the unfolded position. Unhitching with the openers raised will result in sudden elevation of the tongue, causing injury or death. 5. Unplug drill hydraulic hoses and electrical lines from tractor. Use caution when removing the hitch pin. Slight tongue elevation may occur, even with openers and jack lowered. 6. Remove hitch pin first, then safety chain from tractor drawbar. Storage Store the drill where children do not play. If possible, store it inside for longer life. 1. Plug or cap seed delivery and fertilizer tubes to prevent pest entry. 2. Unpin the rod end of the lift cylinder. Fully retract the cylinder to prevent rust. 3. Perform the drill Parking checklist. 4. Lubricate the drill at all points listed under “Lubrication” on page 48. 5. Check all bolts, pins, fittings and hoses. Tighten, repair or replace parts as needed. 6. Check all moving parts for wear or damage. Make notes of any parts needing repair before the next season. 7. Use touch-up paint to cover scratches, chips and worn areas to prevent rust. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index 31 Adjustments Planting Depth Setting nominal planting depth, and achieving it consistently, is affected by multiple adjustable drill functions, from greatest to least effect they are: To get full performance from your drill, you need an understanding of all component operations, and many provide adjustments for optimal field results. Even if planting conditions rarely change, some adjustment items need periodic attention due to normal wear. The 1300 and 1300F have double-disk openers with depth-controlling press wheels mounted on floating opener frames. Opener bodies are staggered for easy soil flow. All openers pivot on a common axis to maintain consistent depth as the opener frames follow contours. A spring provides the down pressure necessary for opener double disks to open a seed furrow. The spring allows openers to float down into depressions and up over obstructions. Individual openers can be adjusted to account for tire tracks. Adjustment • Opener Depth (Press Wheel Height) • Opener Frame Down-Force, • Row Unit Down Pressure (Spring), • Opener Height, and; • Disk Blade Adjustments (as blades wear). Seed and Fertilizer Rate Details are found in the Seed Rate Manual (175-157B). Materials are applied by fluted feed meters driven by the left end wheel. Independent mechanisms main seed, fertilizer and optional small seeds application.

The opener frame adjustment affects all rows at once. Refer to Figure 26 and Figure 27 The openers are mounted on a pivoting tube 1 . A hydraulic cylinder mounted on a floating lug controls the openers. Springs on the opener bodies provide down pressure for the opener disks to cut a seed furrow. An adjustable pivot-stop pin 2 limits the rotation of the floating lug and thereby controls spring length and down pressure on all openers. 3 Changing the position of the pivot-stop pin changes opener down-pressure across the drill. You can also change the spring length or mounting height of individual openers, such as in tire tracks. 4 Press wheels are mounted on the opener bodies behind the opener disks, and perform two functions: • They close the furrow and firm the seed bed. To provide consistent seed firming, the press wheels are free to move down from their normal operating position. This maintains pressing action even if the opener arm lifts at obstructions. • The press wheels control opener depth. The higher the press wheels run, the deeper seed is placed. 1 Pivot Point Figure 26 Down-Pressure Decal 818827C Spring Down Pressure–All Openers The amount of down pressure needed for the opener disks to penetrate the soil varies with field conditions. The objective in selecting a pivot-stop pin hole, and a press wheel height, is to achieve the desired planting depth while keeping the drill frame and the row unit frames level with the ground. Note: The setting of the pivot-stop pin 2 interacts with the setting of the press wheel height. When adjusting one, recheck the other. 2 To increase or decrease all-rows spring down pressure: 1. Raise the drill (to free the pin). 2. Move the pivot-stop pin 2 . The holes 3 in the floating lug are lettered: A provides the greatest down pressure and E provides the least. Figure 27 Adjusting Down-Pressure Pin 16652 As the pin is moved to hole 4 for transport, keep records of what hole is optimal for fields and conditions worked. Note: To maintain consistent opener down pressure, fully extend the hydraulic cylinder each time you lower the openers. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Adjustments 33 Marker Disk Angle Adjustment Sharp Object Hazard: Use caution when making adjustments in this area. Marker disks may be sharp. 2 T W N Refer to Figure 28 To change angle of cut, and the width of the mark, loosen 1 2-inch bolts 1 holding disk assembly. For a wider mark (W), increase the angle of the marker with respect to the tube 2 . For a narrower mark (N), reduce the angle. 1 You can also invert the disk blade on the hub to change the direction of throw. Figure 28 Marker Disk Angle 11757 Tighten bolts 1 . Note: The direction of travel (T) tends to drive the disk angle to Wide. If bolts are not tight enough, or loosen over time, the disk will slip into the Wide mark configuration. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Adjustments 34 Row Unit Adjustments Refer to Figure 29 (which depicts a row unit fully populated with all optional accessories [except scraper and Keeton®] supported for use with the 1300 and 1300F drills) 2 7 4 From front to back, a Great Plains 00 Series row unit can include the following capabilities (some optional): 5 7 1.

Keeton® seed firmer (not shown) Improves seed-soil contact, and provides a stable arm for a low-rate liquid fertilizer delivery tube. See See “Keeton® Seed Firmer Adjustment” on page 37. 7. Press wheels: standard (choice of types) These close the seed trench. The wheels also support the free end of the row unit, and provide the primary control over seeding depth. See “Opener Depth (Press Wheel Height)” on page 38. 2015-09-16 Equipment Damage Risk: Do not back up with row units in the ground. To do so will cause severe damage and row unit plugging. Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Adjustments 35 Opener Height The depth to which the opener disk blades penetrate the soil is controlled in front by the tool bar and pivot (opener height), and in the back by the press wheel height. If the actual ground level is lower for some rows, such as those in tire tracks, you can lower that row unit by lowering the pivot point. 3 1 Refer to Figure 30 1. Raise the drill just enough to relieve tension in the down-pressure spring. 2 2. Remove the bolt from the upper hole 1 . 3. Reposition the arm at the lower hole 2 , and secure with bolt. Note: No spring tension or position adjustment is required. The pivot holes are designed for neutral effect on spring tension (the bolt at the top end of the spring uses a hole that depends on spring length, and not opener height.) Figure 30 Pivot Point Bolt Holes 26382 Row Unit Down Pressure (Spring) For planting in tire tracks, and no-till conditions, you can increase spring pressure on individual or on all openers. Adjust the spring in conjunction with the subframe down-force, and opener height, to keep the top of the row unit parallel to the ground. 1 Adjusting pressure at the springs for all rows is not recommended. Use the opener frame pivot pin (page 32). Refer to Figure 31 and Figure 32 To increase spring pressure: 1. Loosen jam nut 1 at lower end of opener spring. Figure 31 Row Unit Spring Tension 2. Tighten flange against spring tension. Note: Each 14 inch adjustment adds about 13 pounds of force at opener disk (approximately 9 kg per cm). Do not tighten nut more than one inch (2.5 cm). 3. After adjusting, lock flange nut in place with jam nut. 2 The length 2 of the spring is factory-set to: 13516 inch (33.8 cm). The reference points for this length are the center of the upper/front clevis pin 3 and the base of the lower/rear spring stop cup 4 . The factory preset length is recommended for conventional till and min-till conditions. Shorten it for rows in tire tracks or more difficult min-till conditions. The minimum recommended length is: 12516 inch (31.3 cm). 2015-09-16 Table of Contents 17158 4 3 Figure 32 00 Series Spring Length Index 26454 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Adjustments 36 Disk Blade Adjustments Opener disc angle and stagger is not adjustable, but disc-to-disc spacing is, and may need attention as discs experience normal wear. Spacers must be reset when blades are replaced. Refer to Figure 33 The ideal spacing causes the blades to be in contact for about one inch. If you insert two pieces of paper between the blades, the gap between them should be 0 to 1.75 inch (0 to 4.4 cm). If the contact region is significantly larger or smaller (or there is no contact at all), it needs to be adjusted by moving one or more spacer washers. If the contact region varies with blade rotation, one or both blades is likely bent and in need of replacement. Figure 33 Checking Disk Contact 26451 Adjusting Disc Contact Sharp Object Hazard: Row unit disk blades may be sharp. Use caution when making adjustments in this area. 2 Refer to Figure 34 1. Raise the openers and lock them with the transport pin. 1 2. Remove the bolt retaining the opener disc on one side. Carefully remove the disc, noting how many spacers are outside the disk and inside the disk. Do not lose the hub components and spacer washers. 3 3 3. To reduce the spacing between the discs (the normal case), move one spacer washer from the inside to the outside of the disc. 3 3 Figure 34 Adjusting Disk Spacers 26385 Figure 35 Opener Disk Scraper 16163 4. Reassemble and check disc contact. Disk Scraper Adjustments To keep opener disks turning freely, dirt scrapers are mounted between disks to clean as disks rotate. Standard 00 Series row units include a double-disk slotted scraper. A carbide scraper is optional (page 56). Refer to Figure 35 As field conditions vary, scrapers may need to be adjusted. In damp conditions, lower scrapers. If openers are not turning freely, raise scrapers. To adjust, loosen bolt and move scraper as needed. Sharp Object Hazard: Row unit disk blades may be sharp. Use caution when making adjustments in this area. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Adjustments 37 Seed Firmer Adjustments Depending on row option originally specified, 00 Series row units include a seed flap or Seed-Lok®. An optional Keeton® seed firmer may be ordered separately. The seed flap requires no adjustment, but may need to be replaced if worn, and may need to be shortened if an optional seed firmer is added after initial delivery. Sharp Object Hazard: Row unit disk blades may be sharp. Use caution when making adjustments in this area. To adjust the Keeton® seed firmer, lower the drill until the disks of the row units are resting on the ground. Keeton® Seed Firmer Adjustment The optional Keeton® Seed Firmer is an engineered polymer shape that slides down the seed trench. It traps seeds as they exit the seed tube and firms them into the bottom of the “V”. 1 Refer to Figure 36 The firmer is provided with a preset tension which is recommended for using the first year. The tension screw 1 can be tightened in subsequent years according to your needs. Firmers should provide just enough tension to push seeds to the bottom of the trench. Figure 36 Keeton® Seed Firmer 26390 Seed-Lok® Seed Firmer Lock-Up Optional Seed-Lok® firming wheels provide additional seed-to-soil contact. The wheels are spring loaded and do not require adjusting. In some wet and sticky conditions the wheels may accumulate soil. To avoid problems associated with this, you can lock-up the firmers. Refer to Figure 37 (shown with an opener disk removed for clarity - this task can be performed with disks mounted) 1 2 To lock up Seed-Lok® wheels: 1. Pull catch wire aside 1 . 2. Pull firming-wheel arm 2 up and release wire to catch arm.

Marker Movements Tardy, Sudden, Jerky or Unexpected Check all hoses and fittings for leaks and loose connections. Check tractor hydraulic oil level. Check all bolts and pins. Perform a circuit bleed (page 44) if any hydraulic problems were corrected. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index 42 Index 175-157M Maintenance and Lubrication General Information Proper servicing and maintenance is the key to long implement life. With careful and systematic inspection, you can avoid costly maintenance, downtime and repair. Always turn off and remove the tractor key before making any adjustments or performing any maintenance. You may be severely injured or killed by being crushed under a falling implement. Always have frame sufficiently blocked up when working on, and particularly under implement. Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient pressure to penetrate the skin. Check all hydraulic lines and fittings before applying pressure. Fluid escaping from a very small hole can be almost invisible. Use paper or cardboard, not body parts, and wear heavy gloves to check for suspected leaks. If an accident occurs, seek immediate medical attention from a physician familiar with this type of injury. After using drill for several hours, check all bolts to be sure they are tight. 1. Securely block drill before working on it. 2. Lubricate areas listed under “Lubrication” on page 48. 3. Clean any fittings that do not take grease. 4. Inflate tires as specified. See “Appendix A Reference Information” on page 58. 5. Inspect hydraulic hoses for cuts, cracks and aging. Check fittings for evidence of leaks. 6. Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety decals. Order new decals from your Great Plains dealer. See “Safety Decals” on page 6. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Maintenance and Lubrication 43 Maintenance Bleeding Hydraulics To function properly, the hydraulics must be free of air. If hydraulics have not been bled, they will operate with jerky, uneven motions and could cause wings to drop rapidly during folding or unfolding. If hydraulics were not bled during initial implement setup or if you replace a part in hydraulic system during the life of the drill, complete the following procedures. High Pressure Fluid Hazard: Escaping fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin causing serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before disconnecting hydraulic lines. Use a piece of paper or cardboard, NOT BODY PARTS, to check for suspected leaks. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic systems. If an accident occurs, seek immediate medical attention from a physician familiar with this type of injury. Negative Tongue Weight Hazard: Raising openers on unfolded, unhitched drill will cause drill tongue to rise suddenly, which could cause serious injury or death. Be certain that drill is hitched securely to your tractor drawbar and the safety chain is securely attached to tractor before raising openers or unfolding drill. Bleed only at: JIC (Joint Industry Conference, 37 flare) or NPT (National Pipe Thread, tapered thread) fittings. Never bleed at: ORB (O-Ring Boss) or QD (Quick Disconnect) fittings. Check hydraulic fluid level in tractor reservoir and fill to proper level. Add fluid to system as needed. Hydraulic System Capacity System capacity for the lift (only) cylinder system is: 0.45 gallon (1.7 liters). Capacity for lift plus markers is: 0.67 gallon (2.5 liters) 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Bleeding Lift and Marker Hydraulics To function properly, the hydraulics must be free of air. With air in the system, the hydraulics will move in jerky, uneven motions. If you install or replace a hydraulic component, follow these steps. 1. Check the fluid level in the tractor hydraulic reservoir. Bleeding the hydraulics with a low fluid level will draw air into the system. Refer to Figure 39 (depicting a cylinder support block - you can also set the cylinder vertically, pinned in the mount) Index Maintenance and Lubrication 44 Crushing and Sharp Object Hazards: Keep all persons well clear of markers during lift/lower marker fold/unfold operations. Un-pinned markers fold and unfold when the lift circuit is extended or retracted. Markers have multiple pinch points. Lowering arms can crush. Marker disks are sharp. 2. If markers are installed, disconnect the rod ends of both cylinders and lay the markers on the ground. Support the cylinders so that the rod ends are free of obstructions. Refer to Figure 40 3. Lower the openers to the ground. Unpin the rod end of the cylinder from the floating lug. Wire, block up, or otherwise safely support the cylinder so the rod will not contact anything when fully extended. 4. Operate the lift circuit to retract the lift cylinder. If markers are installed, this will also retract one marker cylinder. 5. Loosen a JIC or NPT connection between the hoses and fittings of: • lift cylinder base end (cylinder retracted) • marker cylinder base end (cylinder retracted) Figure 39 Marker Cylinder Bleed 36276 Note: When bleeding cylinders, begin with them retracted (loosening base end connection), and end with them extended (loosening rod end connection). 6. With the tractor idling, slowly work the tractor remote lever as if extending the lift cylinder. As oil seeps from a fitting, stop extension and tighten each hose connection. 7. Continue working the lever until the lift cylinder and active marker cylinder rods are completely extended. 8. Loosen a JIC or NPT connection between the hoses and • lift cylinder rod-end fitting • marker cylinder rod end 9. With the tractor idling, slowly work the tractor remote lever in the opposite direction as if retracting the lift cylinder. As oil seeps from a fitting, stop retraction and tighten each hose connection. 10. If markers are installed, repeat step 4 through step 9 for the other marker side. Figure 40 Opener Lift Cylinder Supported 11. Reconnect the marker cylinders. Cycle the system to fold and lock each marker with its pin. 16675 12. Continue working the lever until the lift cylinder is completely extended. Pin the cylinder to the floating lug. 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Maintenance and Lubrication 45 Marker Maintenance Marker Speed Adjustment Refer to Figure 41 Adjust folding speed for dual markers with hex adjustment screws on sequence valve body. There is an adjustment screw for raising speed 1 and one for lowering speed 2 . You can identify adjustment screws by markings stamped in the valve body. Turn adjustment screws clockwise to decrease folding speed and counterclockwise to increase folding speed. With tractor idling at normal operating speed, adjust marker folding to a safe speed. Excessive folding speed could damage markers and void the warranty. Crushing and Sharp Object Hazards: Keep all persons well clear of markers during lift/lower marker fold/unfold operations. Unpinned markers fold and unfold when the lift circuit is extended or retracted. Markers have multiple pinch points. Lowering arms can crush. Marker disks are sharp. S 2 After adjusting folding speed, tighten jam nuts on hex adjustment screws to hold settings. F 1 Marker Shear Bolt Refer to Figure 42 If a marker gets caught or hits an obstruction, it is designed to fail a Grade 5 shear bolt 31 at the fold, pivot on a pin, and swing back. If the bolt shears, chances are the washers and lock nut will be lost as well. S Figure 41 Marker Extension Adjustment The replacement parts are: 14048 31 802-197C HHCS 5/16-18X2 3/4 GR5 32 803-011C NUT LOCK 5/16-18 PLT 33 804-010C WASHER FLAT 5/16 USS PLT Install the replacement bolt from implement front. Equipment Damage Risk: Using a lower Grade bolt can result in nuisance shears. Using a higher Grade bolt can result in machine damage. Using lower strength washers can result in machine damage. Using a plain nut can result in non-shear arm swings as the nut loosens. If exact replacement parts are not immediately available, temporarily substitute a metric M8 Class 8.8 bolt, heavy duty washers and lock nut. If a lock nut is not available, insert a split lock washer in between the nut and the rear flat washer. 32 33 33 31 Marker Grease Seal Cap Check If grease-seal cap for marker-disk-hub bearings is damaged or missing, disassemble and clean hub. Repack with grease and install a new seal or grease cap.

The slack of new chains tends to increase during the first few hours of operation due to seating. 1 All chains are #40 roller chains. Chain Slack Check slack within the first 8 hours of operation and tighten idlers as necessary. 2 Refer to Figure 43, which, for clarity, greatly exaggerates slack, and omits the idlers. 1. Measure the span 1 for allowable slack: Locate the longest span of each chain (usually the span which does not run through the idlers). The ideal slack is between 2% and 4% of the span. For example: A slack of 1 cm is appropriate for a 30 cm span. Figure 43 Measuring Chain Slack 27264 Figure 44 Chain Clip Orientation 26482 2. Measure the current slack 2 : Acting at a right angle to the chain span at the center of the span, deflect the chain in both directions with a force of about 9 pounds (4 kg). The slack is the distance of the movement. 3. Adjust the idlers for ideal slack. Whenever mounting a chain, make sure the clip at the removable link is oriented to minimize snags. Refer to Figure 44 Install clip with open end facing away from direction of chain travel (shown by gray arrows in chain routing diagrams). 2015-09-16 Table of Contents Index 175-157M 1300 and 1300F Table of Contents Index Maintenance and Lubrication 47 Seed Flap Replacement Current Style Seed Flaps 1.
