INSTALLING 2940 AIR ADJUST RESIDUE MANAGER KITS READ BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION ENGAGE THE CYLINDER STOPS ON THE PLANTER LIFT WHEELS TO “LOCK” THE PLANTER IN THE UP POSITION Installation overview: 1) Prior to installing check the freedom of motion of the row cleaner. 2) The installation process should be done with the planter raised, half folded for transport, and the row units fully extended down.
INSTALLING 2940 AIR ADJUST RESIDUE MANAGER KITS Step 1: Install the 2940-339 3/8” PTC x 1/8” NPT Male fittings to the Air Bags. Step 2: Install and secure the Residue Wheel Mount onto the Residue Manager Main Assembly bracket. - Recommended starting location is the fifth hole from the top. - For conventional or larger planters upper holes may be needed. For very shallow planting depths, lower hole settings may be needed.
CONNECTING/ROUTING THE AIR LINES This procedure should be done with the planter raised, half folded for transport, and the row units and row cleaners fully extended down. The lines and fittings kit supplied is designed to enable the connection from the 2940 Air Adjust compressor for both circuits (Down and Lift) to the Air Bags. The primary concern is the security of the lines themselves. The lines should be fastened to the planter in a manner that allows full range of motion/clearance of the row unit.
AIR LINES ROUTING On the following pages are diagrams of the Air lines for various planter makes and models Direction of flow is: from Supply Tank to Lift (Blue) and Down (Black) lines to Airbags all lines will be 3/8”. Route the lines as efficiently and conveniently as possible. Use the air line colors to differentiate the lift pressure (Blue Air Line) and down pressure (Black Air Line) on the planter for trouble shooting, and leak detection.

AIR LINES ROUTING – ROW UNIT Below is a suggested method for safely and securely routing the air lines from the Air Bag to planter frame. These are generalizations and YOU SHOULD USE YOUR OWN BEST JUDGEMENT in routing air lines. Specific air line routing will be dependent upon: * Row unit make (JD, Kinze, CNH, AGCO, etc) * Parallel arm length DO NOT pass the lines between the rear of the parallel arm and the row unit. This can act as both a pinch point and wear point.
2940 -136 DUMP VALVE KIT INSTALLATION Install the dump valves to the planter as shown. Install the wiring harness; routing the wiring harness from the dump valves to the Compressor Assembly.
PRE OPERATON TEST CHECK LEAK TESTING This leak testing procedure is for the 2940 Air Adjust compressor system consisting of an electric compressor with 20-gal tank, regulator control interface, tubing, and air bags. This procedure shall be performed at the beginning of each season of system use and every 20 hours of in season use. In addition, it should be performed if the user notices a lack of air pressure availability or if the compressor is running an abnormally high duty cycle.
2940 Operation 2940 AIR ADJUST SYSTEM INFORMATION Operation Settings: “How much Down/Lift Pressure should I be running?” That depends. The amount of Down/Lift Pressure will vary greatly across soil types, tillage practices, soil moisture, row unit weight and many other variables. Manage the pressure in the Down and/or Lift circuits in order to maintain 90%+ Ground Contact while keeping the pressure between 10-60 psi.
