Section 1 Assembly and Setup

Model 2250 Air Drill Implement 160-192M

Great Plains Mfg., Inc.

2 1/2" Primary Distribution Hoses

Choose implement configuration to determine correct hose

routing.

1. Start with center tower(s). Route hose as shown in

Figure 1-21. Slide hose at least two inches onto tower

inlet (slide clamp over the end of hose ﬁrst).

2. Allow enough hose so that implement raising, lowering,

folding, and unfolding will not pinch or bind the hose.

3. Using a hacksaw, cut hose so that it will slide at least

two inches on to meter outlet or up to end of outlet flare.

NOTE: Towers must be located so that there is no in-

terference when wings are folded or unfolded. After

towers have been installed and before any seed hos-

es are installed, slowly fold the implement while

watching to be sure there are no interferences. Do

not stand under a wing while it is being folded or un-

folded! If towers interfere with any other part of the

implement, completely unfold the implement and re-

position the tower. Repeat these steps until imple-

ment folds without tower interference.

4. When using double shoot towers, be sure to connect

the tower hoses to the appropriate outlet at the back of

the cart (refer to hose installation procedure in the cart

manual). Slide clamp over hose end then slide hose

onto meter outlet. Install the clamp so it will not inter-

fere with other hoses, clamps, or meter door latch

handles.

5. Repeat the above procedure on the remaining towers

working from the center towers toward the outside.

6. Secure all hoses to the frame using the provided cable

ties. Be sure hoses will not be damaged by drill oper-

ation.

NOTE: Each tower should be connected to its corre-

sponding outlet at the back of the cart. For example,

the center tower should be connected to the center

outlet on the meter box, the far right hand tower

should be connected to the far right hand outlet on

the meter box, etc.
