3.0 Interference Validation

The FlexSeeder system has been designed and tested to fit a wide variety of planter makes and models. Due to the numerous

a&ermarket and OEM a@achments, hardware, and modifica(ons planters might have, it is difficult to validate all possible configu-

ra(ons in the field. When purchasing and installing the FlexSeeder system, be sure to verify that the FlexSeeder system and associ-

ated hardware does not interfere with any part of your planter. Please contact your dealer for further informa(on concerning in-

terference.

NOTICE: Damaged caused to the FlexSeeder system due to interference issues are not covered by

Warranty and you will not be compensated for any damage to your planter.

Tes�ng for Interference:

Although most interference issues can be iden(fied prior to installa(on through visual inspec(on, it is suggested to carry out the

following steps a&er you have retrofi@ed your planter with the FlexSeeder system.

1. Ensure that all FlexSeeder supplied mechanical stop parts have been installed correctly.

2. Completely lower the planter row to the plan(ng posi(on un(l it reaches its end-stop. Inspect to ensure there isn’t any inter-

ference with planter parts.

3. Raise the planter to the transport posi(on un(l it reaches its end-stop. Inspect to ensure that there isn't any interference with

planter parts.

4. Make certain that there is not any interference between the FlexSeeder and any planter parts during the en(re travel of the

row unit.

5. If your planter is capable of folding for transport, fold the planter and inspect to ensure that there is not interference with

planter parts.

NOTICE: FlexSeeder supplied mechanical stops will limit the mo�on of your planter. Ellio' is not

responsible for any damage that may occur to your planter due to these stops.

NOTICE: Ellio' is not responsible for any damage or costs incurred due to modifica�ons made to

your planter. Any modifica�ons to your planter are your responsibility.

Typical Examples of interference:

1. Springs

2. Pneuma(c Cylinders

3. Downforce op(on hardware

Step 1:

• A@ach the clutch bracket (1) to the clutch/gearbox assem-

bly as seen to the right. Insert the Weather Pack connector

through the window in the clutch bracket. The tabs in the

bracket will align itself to the gearbox.

• Secure the clutch bracket by inser(ng the bolt (8) and

(ghten with the locknut (7) which is not visible in the dis-

play.

Step 2:

• Assemble the Gearbox support bracket (seen on the right and

below). Ensure that the spacers are in the right configura(on.

• Do not (ghten the Locknuts (7) completely. These are just to

ensure the bolts do not fall out of the gearbox bracket.

• Combine the two assembles by inser(ng the two bolts (2)

through the remaining gearbox holes.

• Use the two remaining Locknuts to connect the assembly to-

gether. Do not over torque the two locknuts. A loose fit here

will make the reinser(on of the hex bar easier later in the ret-

rofit process.

4.7 Step-by-Step Instructions - Insert Hex Shaft

Step 1:

• Slide hex bar through all gearboxes and support bearings.

• It is much easier to slide the hex bar through if all the gear-

boxes and support bearing are ini(ally loosely mounted.

• Connect to hex bar coupler

• Tighten gear boxes and support bearings.

Step 2:

• Ensure that the hex bar does not interfere with any parts of

the planter when rotated.

4.8 Step-by-Step Instructions - Wiring of Weather P ack Cable

Step 1:

• Wire the Weather Pack cable/connector, ensure there is no

strain/interference when the row unit is raised and lowered

to both limits.

NOTICE: Route and secure wires and connec�ons to avoid pinching or damaging. This could result

in damage to your system.

18

4.9 Step-by-Step Instructions - Install Mechanical Stops


• Install with hopper on, have the heads of

the bolts on the inside,

leave about 1/8" space

between hopper and

bolt head, (ghten

down.

The FlexSeeder retrofit kits all include mechanical stops that will restrict the movement of the planter. This is done to avoid poten-

(ally harmful contact with the FlexSeeder system components. Please note that this will restrict mo(on of the planters.

WARNING: Installing the mechanical stops may require you to li& your planter off its mechanical

stops. The suspended weight can cause dangerous pinch points. Use a stable jack or raise mecha-

nism to li& and lower the planter. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury.

4.10 Step-by-Step Instructions - Transmission Drive Ratio


• The FlexSeeder system provided for the John Deere 700/7100 models has 1:1 ra(o between the hex bar RPM and the seed

meter RPM. You should not have to altar your transmission in any way.

If your planter requires transmission drive ra�o adjustments, please contact your dealer for technical support.

***Refer to page 14 for assembly***

19

4.11 Step-by-Step Instructions - Final Inspection

Step 1:

• Raise and lower complete planter row to both limits. Ensure there isn’t any physical interference of any components or strain

on the Weather Pack cable connector. Replace Seedmeters and hoppers and ensure engagement capability.

Step 2:

• Install your GPS according to the GPS manufacturer’s in-

struc(ons. Ellio@ Manufacturing cannot offer technical sup-

port for your GPS system as these systems are not manufac-

tured by Ellio@ Manufacturing. All ques(ons concerning the

setup and opera(on of the GPS system should be directed

to the GPS manufacturer.

• Consult your dealer or GPS manufacturer for the correct

wire harness. The FlexSeeder system is connected to your

GPS controllers with a 2-Pin Weather Pack connector.

• Ensure that your GPS system recognizes your FlexSeeder

system clutches.

Step 3:

• Once you have completed the installa(on of your

FlexSeeder systems, you will need to confirm perfor-

mance and seed popula(ons. Please follow your GPS

manufacturers instruc(ons for doing so.

• It is strongly suggested that you manually and visually

verify spacing and on/off control during the first few pass-

es with your planter. Measure the spacing between seeds

to validate popula(on. Ensure that you are not over

plan(ng in end rows or that you are not under plan(ng

upon re-entry.
