Description of Unit

The LSP Landscape Seeder is the latest addition to the Brillion lineup of landscape turfmaker seeders. With it's single landscape style box that is equipped with the polyethylene blade type agitator, this unit can handle most turf seeds with ease. Built on a structural tube mainframe, this seeder provides increased seed box capacity and a simplified roller chain drive system. The seeder roller assemblies have greaseable, flange style, self aligning bearings. The integral Cat. I 3-point hitch provides for a close coupled unit that compliments the new generation of compact tractors very well.
The Brillion LSS6 Skid Steer Landscape Seeder, new to the Landscape Seeder lineup, is a bi-directional seeder with a three point hitch that can be attached to the front or rear of the seeder frame. A skid steer quick-attach mounting plate is standard equipment. Depending on the choice of mounting, the seeder can be either pushed or pulled by the skid steer. In addition, the seeder will also mount to tractors with a standard Cat. 1 three point hitch.

NOTES

Maintenance Safety

• Keep Riders Off of Machinery
Do not allow anyone to ride on tractor or machine. Riders could be struck by foreign objects or thrown from the machine.
• Never allow children to operate equipment.
• Keep bystanders away from machine during operation.

Transporting Safety

It is the responsibility of the owner/operator to comply with all state and local laws.
• When transporting the machine on a road or highway, use adequate warning symbols, reflectors, lights and slow moving vehicle sign as required. Slow moving tractors and towed implements can create a hazard when driven on public roads. They are difficult to see, especially at night.
• Do not tow an implement that, when fully loaded, weighs more than 1.5 times the weight of the towing vehicle.
• Carry reflectors or flags to mark the tractor and implement in case of breakdown on the road.
• Do not transport at speeds over 20 MPH under good conditions. Never travel at a speed which does not allow adequate control of steering and stopping. Reduce speed if towed load is not equipped with brakes.
• Avoid sudden stops or turns because the weight of the machine may cause the operator to lose control of the tractor. Use a tractor heavier than the machine.
• Use caution when towing behind articulated steering tractors; fast or sharp turns may cause the machine to shift sideways.
• Keep clear of overhead power lines and other obstructions when transporting. Know transport height and width of your machine.
• Block the machine so it will not roll when working on or under it to prevent injury in case of hydraulic failure or inadvertent lowering by another person.
• Do not make adjustments or lubricate machine while it is in motion.
• Make sure all moving parts have stopped and all system pressure is relieved.
• Keep all guards in place. Replace any that become damaged.
• Understand the procedure before doing the work. Use proper tools and equipment.
On most tractors relieving hydraulic pressure can be accomplished by operating valves after the engine is stopped. Also, the machine should be lowered to ground so that the shanks are taking the load.
Wear protective gloves and safety glasses or goggles when working with hydraulic systems.

Protective Equipment

• Wear protective clothing and equipment.
• Wear clothing and equipment appropriate for the job. Avoid loose fitting clothing.
• Because prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause hearing impairment or hearing loss, wear suitable hearing protection, such as earmuffs or earplugs.

Chemical Safety

• Agricultural chemicals can be dangerous. Improper use can seriously injure persons, animals, plants, soil and property.
• Read chemical manufactures instructions and store or dispose of unused chemicals as specified.
• Handle chemicals with care and avoid inhaling smoke from any type of chemical fire.
• Store or dispose of unused chemicals as specified by the chemical manufacturer.

Attaching, Detaching, Storage

• Do not stand between the tractor and implement when attaching or detaching implement unless both are prevented from moving.

Prepare for Emergencies

• Keep a First Aid Kit and Fire Extinguisher handy.
• Keep emergency numbers for doctor, ambulance, hospital and fire department near phone.

Operation

The Brillion Landscaper Seeder is fully assembled from the factory. operate your machine. Refer to the parts catalog for complete part breakdowns. Be sure to read and understand the Safety Procedures and Cautions starting on page 1-2.
"Left" and "Right" designation is determined by facing the direction the machine will travel during field operation, unless otherwise stated.
• If pre-assembled parts or fasteners are temporarily removed, remember where they go. It is best to keep parts separated.
• Check that all working parts move freely, bolts are tight and cotter pins are spread.
• Refer to the Torque Chart in Chapter 4 for proper bolt torque values.
Note the different torque requirement for bolts with lock nuts. Refer to Torque Chart in Chapter 4.
This section refers to how to successfully
Always be sure the front of the tractor has enough weight to maintain control when the machine is raised.
When transporting on roadways, obey all applicable laws and regulations.
Do not transport at speeds over 20 mph under good conditions. Never travel at a speed which does not allow adequate control of steering or stopping.
Avoid sudden stops or turns because the weight of the machine may cause the operator to lose control of the tractor.
Make sure your slow moving vehicle sign is clean and visible.
