5.5 CHECKING FERTILIZER RUNS

Perform the following test to ensure that each fertilizer run is functioning properly:

1. Ensure that tank is at least partially filled with either water or liquid fertilizer.

2. Lower metering wheel and proceed forward about 20 - 30 ft (6 - 9 m).

3. Stop tractor and look at ground behind each opener to ensure liquid fertilizer is

discharged behind each run.

5.6 APPLYING LIQUID FERTILIZER

To apply liquid fertilizer, ensure that main flow valve, 1 Figure 35, is open and the fill

valve, 2 Figure 35, is closed. Close the main flow valve when not operating the liquid

fertilizer system while tank contains any quantity of liquid fertilizer.

NOTE: The main filter should be cleaned daily.
