General Safety Rules

Model 3700M0275-01

1. Read and understand instructions provided in this manual and warning labels. Review these instructions frequently!

2. This machine is designed and built with your safety in mind. Do not make any alterations or changes to this machine. Any alteration to design or construction may create safety hazards.

3. A large portion of farm accidents happen from fatigue or carelessness. Safe and careful operation of tractor and planter will help prevent accidents.

Never allow planter to be operated by anyone unfamiliar with operation of all functions of the unit. Operators must read and thoroughly understand all instructions given in this manual before operating or working on equipment.

5. Be aware of bystanders, particularly children! Always look around to make sure it is safe to start tow vehicle engine or move planter. This is particularly important with higher noise levels and quiet cabs, as you may not hear people shouting.

6. Make sure planter weight does not exceed towing capacity of tractor, or bridge and road limits. This is critical to maintain safe control and prevent death or injury, or property and equipment damage.

7. Never ride or allow others to ride on planter.

17. Make sure all safety/warning lights, SMV sign, and reﬂective decals are in place and working properly before transporting the machine on public roads.

18. Limit towing speed to 15 MPH (25 km/h). Tow only with farm tractor of a minimum 90 HP. Allow for unit length when making turns.

19. Reduce speed prior to turns to avoid the risk of overturning. Always drive at a safe speed relative to local conditions and ensure your speed is slow enough for a safe emergency stop.

20. Chemical application is often an integral part of planting. Follow label instructions for proper chemical mixing, handling and container disposal methods.

21. Be familiar with safety procedures for immediate ﬁrst aid should you accidentally contact chemical substances.

22. Use the proper protective clothing and safety equipment when handling chemicals.

23. Chemicals are supplied with Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) that provide full information about the chemical, its effects on exposure, and ﬁrst aid needs in the event of an emergency. Keep your MSDS ﬁle up-to-date and available for ﬁrst responders in case of emergency.

8. Store planter in an area away from human activity. DO NOT permit children to play on or around the stored unit.

9. Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from moving parts. Do not wear loose-ﬁtting clothing which may catch in moving parts.

10. Always wear protective clothing, shoes, gloves, hearing, and eye protection applicable for the situation.

11. Do not allow anyone to stand between tongue or hitch and towing vehicle when backing up to planter.

13. Prevent electrocution, other injuries, or property and equipment damage. Watch for obstructions such as wires, tree limbs, etc. when operating machine. Be aware of clearances during turns and when folding/unfolding planter.

14. Reinstall all guards removed for maintenance activities. Never leave guards off during operation.

15. Use of aftermarket hydraulic, electric, or PTO drives may create serious safety hazards to you and people nearby. If you install such drives, follow all appropriate safety standards and practices to protect you and others near this planter from injury.

16. Follow all federal, state/provincial, and local regulations when towing farm equipment on a public highway. Use safety chain (not an elastic or nylon/plastic tow strap) to retain connection between towing and towed machines in the event of primary attaching system separation.

24. When servicing ground engaging components such as opening disks and ﬁrming points, use special care to avoid points and edges worn sharp during use.

25. Use professional help if you are unfamiliar with working on hydraulic systems. Pressurized hydraulic ﬂuid can penetrate body tissue and result in death, serious infection, or other injuries.

Never pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into any water source.

When disposing of waste such as oil, use leakproof containers. Be sure to use containers that do not resemble food or beverage which may mislead someone into consuming them. Dispose of oil per your local, regional requirements.

When disposing of any fertilizer chemicals used, contact the supplier of the chemicals.

Model 3700 planter consists of 85% recyclable metals, 10% recyclable plastic and rubber, and 5% waste.

LEVEL PLANTER

Machine Operation

M0275-01Model 3700

Approximately parallel with planting surface

Clevis adjustment holes

Level row units

Toolbar should operate at 50 cm - 56 cm height from planting surface. Tire pressures must be maintained at pressures speciﬁed for planter to operate level laterally. Check toolbar and row unit parallel arms are level front to back with

planter lowered to proper operating height.

Five holes in the hitch bracket allow clevis to be raised or lowered. Clevis may be turned over for a ﬁner adjustment between mounting holes. Torque hardware to 1138.8 Nm.

Field and actual planting conditions determine which wheel settings to use to ensure row unit parallel arms are approximately parallel with planting surface. If planting in extremely soft soil conditions it may be necessary to move ground drive tires to lower sets of mounting holes. To allow adequate drive force after lowering the ground drive tires, it may be necessary to lower contact drive arms to lower set of holes in wheel module and relocate down pressure springs to lower mounting rod on wheel module.

If planter center is higher or lower than wings after rephasing, contact your Kinze Dealer for valve adjustment or maintenance.

CONTACT WHEEL SPRING ADJUSTMENT

20 cm (8")

Spring length measurement (Factory setting)

Contact drive springs

There are two down pressure springs on each contact drive wheel. Spring tension is factory set to approximately 90 kg of down force at tire contact point and should require no further adjustment.

NOTE: Measurement must be taken in planting position with proper tire pressure.

CONTACT WHEEL DRIVE SPROCKETS

Contact drive wheel sprocket

Sprocket idler

Contact wheel drive Optional half-rate drive sprocket

Contact wheel drive works the same for mechanical or vacuum planters except for sprocket size. Chain tension is controlled by a spring-loaded sprocket idler. Planting rate charts in “Rate Chart” section help you select correct sprockets.

NOTE: Make a ﬁeld test after each sprocket combination change to be sure you are planting at desired rate.

22 tooth, 28 tooth or 44 tooth sprockets at each contact drive wheel can be exchanged with sprockets on storage rod bolted to wheel module on each side of planter chains. 22 tooth sprockets require 148 pitch No. 40 chains. 28 tooth sprockets require 150 pitch chains. 44 tooth sprockets require use 158 pitch chains.

NOTE: 22, 28 and 44 tooth drive sprockets do NOT apply to all rate charts. Check chart titles to make sure proper rate chart is selected.

NOTE: 54 cell sunﬂower disc uses 15 tooth drive sprocket at contact wheels and 28 tooth drive sprocket at wheel module reverser plates with 19 tooth sprocket. 15 tooth sprockets require 144 pitch No. 40 chains. Applicable sprockets, chains and instructions supplied in G1K469 Sunﬂower Rate Reduction Kit.

Seed planting rate charts are based on standard rate drive. Standard rate drive uses a 30 tooth sprocket and No. 40 118 pitch chain on each contact wheel. Optional half-rate (2 to 1) drive is recommended only when population falls below planting rate charts. Replace 30 tooth sprocket on each contact wheel with a 15 tooth sprocket and shorter No. 40 110 pitch chain. This reduces planter transmission speed and planting and application rates by approximately 50%.

SEED RATE TRANSMISSION ADJUSTMENT

Planting population rate changes are made using seed rate transmissions at end of each planter wing. Seed rate transmissions allow simple, rapid changes of sprockets by removing lynch pins on hexagon shafts and changing sprockets with those from the sprocket storage rod bolted to transmissions.

Drive

Chain tension is controlled by a spring-loaded dual sprocket idler. Idler assembly is adjusted with a easyrelease idler arm with a release position to adjust spring tension for planting or remove spring tension

Driven

for replacing sprockets. See ‘‘Wrap Spring Wrench Operation’’.

Seed rate transmission

A decal on the transmission (behind chain idler) shows proper chain routing. “Rate Charts” section of this manual will help you select correct sprocket combinations.

Draft link

Axle link slide (L.H. shown)

24 Row 70 cm planters are equipped with sliding axle links which connect R.H. and L.H. draft links to transport axle. Axle links move in a slide on inner side of each draft link when planter folds or unfolds. When axle links reach end of slides, main transport axle is telescoped forward into transport position or rearward into ﬁeld position.

DO NOT GREASE axle link slides or

NOTICE

excess dirt accumulation may cause equipment failure. Inspect daily to ensure free movement of axle links in slides. Keep axle link slides clean. Use only powdered graphite if lubrication is desired.

Stops at either end of slides are designed to allow dirt to escape In normal operating conditions. Under extremely dusty conditions it may be necessary to clean slides.

DIGITAL VACUUM GAUGE

Digital vacuum gauge control console is equipped with a power toggle switch, run/stop (fans) toggle switch, and two fan speed control toggle switches for the vacuum fans.

Power switch applies power to control console. Run/stop toggle switch turns both fans on when power switch is ON. Fan speed control switches adjusts each fan (left or right).

HYDRAULIC/ELECTRIC OPERATION

Control console switches and tractor’s hydraulic system are used to raise planter to transport position, operate rotate and tongue extension functions, lock and release planter wings, and raise and lower row markers.

NOTE: Turn console backlighting OFF during extended periods of non-use using push button switch on back of console.

Single point row clutch control box

Two dual remote hydraulic outlets (SCV) are required on all sizes of conventional planters equipped with row markers. Three dual remote hydraulic outlets (SCV) are required on all sizes of bulk ﬁll planters equipped with row markers. One set of outlets is used to operate lift function, one set is used to operate markers, tongue and fold/unfold functions and the third set is used to operate bulk ﬁll functions (If Applicable).

Marker and point row selector switches are an ON-OFF-ON type. If planter is equipped with optional Two-Speed Point Row Clutch Package, point row switch and reduced rate switch operate independently from rest of control console.

Power to marker switch is fed through auxiliary switch and two transport function switches. Operating any lower row switch disables markers and turns off marker indicator light.

Raise/wing lock and rotate/tongue (fold function) switches are MOMENTARY ON-OFF-MOMENTARY ON type and must be held in position while operating tractor hydraulic SCV control. Activating a fold function switch disables marker circuit.

Marker selector switch must be OFF

VACUUM FAN VALVE BLOCK ASSEMBLY

A pressure relief valve prevents build up of oil pressure over 35 PSI (241 kPa) in case drain line when vacuum fan motor is operating. This valve vent oils outside through a drain hole in aluminum valve block. This can occur whenever case drain is improperly connected or pressure in motor circuit builds.

Valve block contains a check valve that prevents vacuum fan from operating in wrong direction if pressure is applied to return side of motor and allows fan to coast to a stop when tractor hydraulic control is returned to neutral position.

Output hub

Stop collar

Wrap spring

Input hub

Control tang

Clutch consists of a wrap spring riding on an input and output hub. Wrap spring is wrapped tightly over hubs during operation locking them together. Higher speeds create a tighter grip of spring on hubs.

Input end of spring is bent outward and is called the control tang. Control tang ﬁts into a slot in stop collar located between input and output hubs over wrap spring. If stop collar is allowed to rotate with input hub, clutch is engaged. If stop collar is stopped from rotating, control tang connected to it is forced back and spring opens. This allows input hub to continue rotating without transmitting torque to output hub, stopping planter drive.

Stop collar is controlled by an electric solenoid and an actuator arm. When selector switch on tractor control box is OFF, solenoid coil is NOT ENERGIZED and actuator arm will not contact stop on stop collar, allowing it to rotate with hubs and drive planter.

When operational switch is in “DISENGAGE” (right or left) solenoid coil IS ENERGIZED and plunger in solenoid coil pulls actuator arm against stop on stop collar, disengaging wrap spring and stopping planter drive.

Check drive wheel air pressure, check for incorrect sprocket(s) in driveline and check drive and driven sprockets on transmission(s) for proper selection.

Check for seed meter malfunction. For example, if spacing between kernels of corn at the transmission setting being used is 20 cm and a gap of 40 cm is observed, a ﬁnger has lost its seed and not functioned properly. If two seeds are found within a short distance of each other, ﬁnger has metered two seeds instead of one.

The use of graphite is recommended to promote seed ﬂow, provide lubrication for the seed meter and to help dissipate static charge buildup. Among the available dry seed lubricants graphite is the most effective and easiest to use and it requires no mechanical agitation

CONVENTIONAL HOPPERS Mix one tablespoon of powdered graphite with seed each time hoppers are ﬁlled. Regular graphite use prolongs life of the seed meter components, improves seed spacing, and may reduce buildup of seed treatments.

NOTE: DO NOT apply graphite only in center of hopper. It will ﬁlter too quickly through the seed and not distribute as evenly as desired.

Apply graphite around outer perimeter of hopper.

BAYER FLUENCY AGENT

Bayer Fluency Agent is an alternate seed lubricant by Bayer Crop Science. The intent of this product is to replace graphite and talc lubricants and to lower the amount of dust emissions from planter vacuum fans.

This product, as tested by Kinze, is compatible with Kinze’s bulk ﬁll system and vacuum meters. Due to limited testing, wear life characteristics of meters and bulk ﬁll systems that use Bayer Fluency Agent are not yet known. Please follow Bayer Fluency Agent instructions for rates and mixing directions.

NOTE: Presently, Bayer Fluency Agent is only required to be used in Canada with Bulk Fill or Vacuum planters that plant corn or beans treated with neonicotinoids. Farms outside of Canada, farms not using seed treated with neonicotinoids, and farms not using pneutmatic metering devices do not need to use Bayer Fluency Agent. All planters not equipped with vacuums or fans are exempt from using Bayer Fluency Agent.

Seed additives added in the hopper may affect ﬁnger pickup seed meter performance and accelerate wear.

Finger Pickup Oil Sunﬂower Meter

Larger grades generally plant more accurately at the high end of the ground speed range than smaller grades. Higher than optimum speeds may result in population rate increase or higher incidence of doubles, particularly with small seed. No. 3 and/or No. 4 size oil sunﬂower seeds are recommended for use in ﬁnger pickup seed meters equipped with oil sunﬂower ﬁngers. No. 1 and/or No. 2 size confectionery sunﬂower seeds are recommended for use in ﬁnger pickup seed meters equipped with corn ﬁngers.

Brush-Type Seed Meter (Soybean, Milo/Grain Sorghum, Acid-Delinted Cotton)

Rate charts are given in seeds per acre as well as seed spacing in inches rounded to nearest tenth of an inch. Because of large range in seed size, pounds per acre is not a suggested method of selecting transmission settings. Smaller size seed pounds per acre may be below what was expected and large seed pounds per acre may appear above expectations. To determine pounds per acre, use formula given in “Determining Pounds Per Acre (Brush-Type Seed Meter)” in “Check Seed Population” in Machine Operation section of this manual.

NOTE: Planting speed can affect actual seeding rate. Make a ﬁeld check and adjust transmission setting to obtain desired seed drop.

NOTE: Half Rate (2 to 1) Drive Reduction Package may be required to obtain desired population and seed spacing. Half Rate Drive with brush-type seed meters reduces planter transmission speed. Seeding rate will be approximately 50% of chart reading when using Half Rate (2 To 1) Drive Reduction Package.

EXAMPLE: 70 cm row spacing using 60 cell seed discs in brush-type seed meters. 80,928 ÷ 2 = 40,464 Population (6.5 cm Seed Spacing x 2 = 13 cm Seed Spacing)

PLANTING RATES FOR BRUSH-TYPE SEED METERS (STANDARD DRIVE)

APPROXIMATE HILLS/HECTARE FOR 70 CM ROWS

Due to variations in cotton seed size, meters equipped with the 12 cell acid-delinted hill-drop cotton discs will plant from 3 to 6 seeds per cell. Select proper disc for seed size range to be planted.

To determine planter transmission setting, determine desired hill spacing and select the transmission ratio closest to the hill spacing in inches on the chart. To decrease population increase spacing. To increase population decrease spacing.

To determine population per hectare, determine average seeds per hill and hills per hectare by doing a ﬁeld check. Measure  of an hectare ( hectare = Length of row 14.3m for 70 cm row width). Multiply average seeds per hill by hills per hectare. EXAMPLE: 4 seeds per hill x (43 hills x 1000) = 172,000

Charts are for planters equipped with contact drive. Check tires for correct operating pressure.

Charts calculated based on a solution weighing 1.2 kilograms per liter.

NOTE: Fertilizer application rates can vary from weights calculated in above chart. Make ﬁeld checks to be sure you are applying fertilizer at desired rate.

To check the exact number of liters your fertilizer attachment will actually deliver on a 70 cm row spacing:

1. Remove hose from one fertilizer opener and insert it into a collection container secured planter frame.

2. Engage fertilizer attachment and drive forward for 53m.

3. Measure ﬂuid mL caught in container and divide that amount by 4. Result is liters fertilizer delivered per hectare when planting in 70 cm rows

(e.g. 20ml = 2 L ; 50ml= 5L; 100ml = 10L).

4. Rinse collection container and repeat test on other rows if necessary.

NOTE: Chart represents average values and should be used only as a starting point. Granular chemical ﬂows through meter opening at a nearly uniform rate regardless of roller speed. Your actual rate will vary depending on insecticide, planting speed, and plant population. Planting speed/ground speed has the greatest effect on application rate.

Field check your actual rate with insecticide you are using at speed and population you will be planting. See “Checking Granular Chemical Application Rate” in Machine Operation section for more information..
