Important Safety Information
Look for Safety Symbol
The SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL indicates there is a
potential hazard to personal safety involved and extra
safety precaution must be taken. When you see this
symbol, be alert and carefully read the message that follows it. In addition to design and configuration of equipment, hazard control and accident prevention are
dependent upon the awareness, concern, prudence and
proper training of personnel involved in the operation,
transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.
Be Aware of Signal Words
Signal words designate a degree or level of hazard seriousness.
DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
This signal word is limited to the most extreme situations,
typically for machine components that, for functional purposes, cannot be guarded.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
injury, and includes hazards that are exposed when
guards are removed. It may also be used to alert against
unsafe practices.
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.

Introduction
Description of Unit
These kits update older hoppers to the current pneumatic configuration, which includes a vertical pipe to
equalize pressure at the top of the hopper and at the
base of the seed mass. This allows the hydraulic fan to
run at higher speeds, and provides more consistent seed
flow at all pressures and seed delivery rates.
Document Family
401-514M Installation Instructions (this document)
Also update your Operator and Parts Manuals for correct
information on fan operations with updated hoppers, and
current replacement part data.

Installation Instructions
Before You Start
Most accidents are the result of negligence and carelessness, usually caused by failure of the operator to follow simple but necessary safety precautions. Allow no
one to install the pressure relief kit before carefully reading this manual.
Some fasteners may be loosely assembled. Remove
them before mounting that component. Due to evolving
manufacturing practices, some assemblies may already
be completely pre-assembled. If so, check that fasteners
are tight, and skip the unneeded assembly steps.
Tools Required
• Basic hand tools, including a center punch and a fine
tip indelible marker
• Portable drill with a
• Twist drill bits of sizes:
Bolt hole: 0.41in,
Pilot hole: approx. 0.13in,
• Measuring square
• Silicone sealant
• Blocks of supports for hopper
• Ladder
Torque values for fasteners are shown on page 15.
1. Read and understand “Important Safety Informa-
tion” starting on page 1.

WARNING
Possible Confined Space Hazard. Do not enter hopper.
The instructions in this manual do not require hopper entry.
A hopper that has been used may represent a Confined Space

2. Empty the hopper per the clean-out instructions in
your Operator Manual. Remove the strainer basket(s) and leave the slide gate open.
3. From the walkboard (or a lift, if the hopper is dis-
mounted), thoroughly pressure wash the inside of
the hopper.
4. Allow the hopper to drain and dry.

Dismount Hopper
U
!
CAUTION
You will be handling the bottom components of the hopper, and
any remaining moisture may contain residual seed treatments.
This update cannot be performed with a hopper cradled
on a planter, as the planter airbox obstructs access from
below. Consult the planter Operator manual for hopper
removal instructions.
5. While waiting for the hopper to dry, prepare a suitable work location. Use a level, dry, well-lighted area.
Pick a location with a clear surface beneath, so that
any dropped tools or parts can be easily located.
For work access to the bottom of the hopper, the
assembly needs to raised at least 18in (46cm). One
method, as shown in Figure 3, is to rest it on blocks
or supports under the lateral tubes of the structure.

!
CAUTION
Use adequate supports.
Make sure each support can safely support at least 150% its
apparent share of the weight. See step 6 for hopper weights.
Do not perform this work in high wind.
!
CAUTION
Anchor the hopper laterally.
Make sure that workers on ladders at later steps cannot push
or tip the hopper off the supports.
6. If the hopper to be updated is presently on a planter,
use a suitably rated forklift or hoist to remove the
hopper.
A 403-143K or 403-226K 82 bu hopper weighs 1200
pounds (544 kg) empty. Allow another 400 pounds
(181 kg) for two workers and tools,
for a total of 1600 pounds (726 kg).
A 403-174K 150 bu hopper weighs 1350 pounds
(612 kg) empty. Allow another 400 pounds (181 kg)
for two workers and tools,
for a total of 1750 pounds (794 kg).
7. Place the hopper in the prepared work location.

Install 150 bu Upper Components
If you are updating an 82bu hopper, use the instructions
at “Install 82 bu Upper Components” on page 10.
Refer to Figure 14
In the 150 bu hopper, the upper tube support mounts to
the stiffener rib molded into the hopper. Four holes, two
each side, need to be drilled.
This work is most easily accomplished from the walkboard, while the hopper is on the planter.
Refer to Figure 15,
which depicts a view fromthe right side above a view from

the rear. The eventual location of top tube support is
shown in dotted line, and the angle bracket shown in
dashed line.
Hole locations are in the side walls of the center stiffener
rib. Measurements are referenced from:
1
front face, rear lip of tank top openings
2
underside of center stiffener rib
After installation, the bottom edge of the angle bracket
31
is flush with the underside of the center stiffener rib.
Mark Holes for Drilling
45. Holes are above the underside of center stiffener rib:
A
2.28in, 2
46. The rear holes are located forward of the lip at:
B
7.02in, 7
47. The front holes are forward of the rear holes by:
C
5.50in, 5
For reference, the total distance from the lip to the
forward holes is:
E
12.52in, 12
48. Mark the hole centers. Hole diameter is:
H
0.41in,
49. Use a 16in (41cm) straight edge to mark a line
between the hole centers, and about 2in (5cm) on
either side.
Note: Depending on the hopper and part tolerances,
these may not be the final hole positions. The final
holes are marked and drilled beginning at step 53.

Great Plains Manufacturing, Inc. Installation Instructions 13
Insert Pipe in Hopper
Refer to Figure 16
50. Select one new:
32
403-427D 150 BU AIR PRESSURE PIPE
51. Insert the pipe into the hopper and slide it over
the lower pipe support weldment. Have a second
worker hold it, or temporarily lean it against the back
of the hopper.
32
Cap and Position Pipe
52. Select the:
14
403-242S UPPER PIPE SUPPORT WELDMENT
with the angle brackets loosely attached.
Refer to Figure 17
53. Place the cap assembly on top of the pipe and
maneuver it so that the four holes in the angle brack-
31
ets align with the marks for the holes to be drilled.
It may be necessary to temporarily remove one
angle bracket in some cases.
If all four holes cannot be aligned, align to the forward holes. If both left and right side forward holes
cannot be aligned, use the left forward hole.
54. Make sure the angle bracket bolts are finger tight,
and make final marks for drilling. Fore-and-aft location of the holes is not critical, but if a hole needs to
be re-marked, make sure the vertical position is on
the centerline marked at step 49.

Drill 150 bu Holes
These holes need to be drilled from the inside, as the
exterior channel of the stiffener rib is not wide enough for
most portable drills.
55. Swing the pipe assembly clear.
56. Drill pilot holes. Re-check hole placement and drill
final holes.
57. Sweep out any drill swarf that might eventually clog a
seed meter.
IMPORTANT !
If any error is made in hole drilling, close the hole with
5
a
⁄
in or 8mm bolt, washers and nut, coated with
16
silicone sealant. A hole left open adversely affects
seed delivery.

59. Loosen the bolts holding the angle brackets, and
apply silicone sealant around the holes in the hopper. Re-position the angle brackets at the holes and
loosely re-tighten bolts .
60. Apply silicone sealant to the underside of bolt heads
33
, and insert them. from the inside of the hopper,
through the angle brackets and hopper. Secure with
flange lock nuts .
61. When all four flange lock nuts are tight, tighten
27
bolts .

Closeout
62. Re-install strainer(s).
63. Close lid(s).
64. Close door slide.
65. Re-mount hopper on planter (if next use will rely on
hopper rather than bulk seed box).
66. Obtain an updated Operator Manual for your planter.
Review sections on fan and hopper operations, as
recommended fan speeds are higher for updated
hoppers.
