Maintenance
Proper servicing and adjustment is the key to the long life
of any implement. With careful and systematic
inspection, you can avoid costly maintenance, time and
repair.
7. After using your seeder for several hours, check all
bolts to be sure they are tight.
8. Lubricate areas noted in the “Lubrication” section.
9. Adjust idlers to remove excess slack from chains.
Clean and use chain lube on all roller chains as
needed.
10. Feedcup drive sprocket should be oiledin its square bore.
Move feedcup adjustment leverawayfrom sprocket as far
as possible in order to get oil back into square.
11. Always maintain proper air pressure in tires.
12. Replace any worn, damaged or illegible safety labels by
obtaining new labels from your Land Pride Dealer.
13. Inspect safety chain and hardware for wear or other
damage.
Storage
1. At the end of the working season or when your
Primary Seeder will not be used for a long period, it is
good practice to clean off any dirt or grease that may
have accumulated on the seeder and any of the
moving parts.
2. Be sure that the seed box is completely cleaned
before storing.
3. The square bore of the feed cup drive sprocket hub
should be oiled to prevent seizing. Squirt oil on to the
square feed cup shaft and move feed cup adjustment
lever back and forth in order to get the oil back into
the square.
4. Lubricate all fittings as indicated in the following
illustrations.
5. When in storage, lower the seeder with rollers on a
board or hard surface and adjust the parking stand or
tongue jack.
6. For seeders with front or end wheels, apply a light
coat of oil to exposed cylinder rods.
7. Repaint parts where paint is worn or scratched to
prevent rust.
8. Store the seeder inside if possible. Inside storage will
reduce maintenance and make for a longer seeder
life.
