6Safety
- Operate the Planter Safely
- If the planter must be in a raised position while
working on or near it, be certain service locks
are installed. - Never ride or permit others to ride on the
drawbar of the tractor or on the planter. - Perm it only one person, the operator, on the
tractor platform while tractor and planter are in
operation. - Be careful when operating on hillsides because
the tractor may tip sideways if it strikes a
hole, ditch, or other irregularity. - When using the auger fill attachment
- Keep all shields in place.
- Disengage and shut off all engine and/or motor
power before servicing or unclagging machine. - Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from power-
driven parts. - Transport Safely
- While transporting the planter on a public road,
follow safety instructions outlined under
"Transporting. - Use care when transporting across rough ground.
- Avoid High-Pressure Hydraulic Fluid
- Escaping fluid under pressure can have sufficient
force to penetrate the skin, causing serious
injury. Before disconnecting lines, be sure to
relieve pressure. Before applying pressure, be
sure connections are tight and lines, pipes and
hoses are not damaged. Use a piece of cardboard
or wood, rather than hands, to search for leaks. - If injured by escaping fluid, see a doctor at
once. Serious infection or reaction can develop
if pfoper medical treatment is not administered
immediately. - Lubricate the Planter Safely
- Do not grease, oil or adjust the planter while it
is in motion. - Handle Chemicals Properly
- Agricultural chemicals can be dangerous. Improper
selection or use can injure persons, animals,
plants, soils, or other property. BE SAFE handle
and apply with care. Follow instructions of the
chemical manu- facturer.
7Safety 3
Free Dry rertilizer Augers Safely Do not use
welding torch to free frozen dry fertilizer
augers from auger shaft, Fertilizer trapped
inside augers could cause gas to form, which when
heated, may cause augers to ex- plode. Mount
Tires Safely Failure to follow proper procedures
when mounting a tire on a wheel or rim can
produce an explosion which may result in serious
injury or death, Do not attempt to mount a tire
unless you have the proper equipment and
experience to perform the job. Have it done by
your John Deere dealer or a qualified tire repair
service. When sealing tire beads on rims, never
exceed 35 psi or maximum inflation pressures
specified by tire man- ufacturers for mounting
tires. Inflation beyond this maximum pressure may
break the bead, or even the rim, with dangerous
explosive force. If both beads are not seated
when the maximum recommended pres- sure is
reached, deflate, reposition tire, relubricate
bead and reinflate. Detailed agricultural tire
mounting instructions, includ- ing necessary
safety precautions, are contained in John Deere
Fundamentals of Service (FOS) Manual 55, Tires
and Tracks, available through your John Deere
dealer. Such information is also available from
the Rubber Manufacturers Association and from
tire manufacturers. Protect Against
Noise Prolonged exposure to loud noise can cause
impair- ment or loss of hearing. Wear a suitable
hearing protective device such as earmuffs (A) or
earplugs (B) to protect against objec- tionable
or uncomfortable loud noises.
AEarmuffs BEarpIugs
Service Always lower the planter to the ground
when not in use. Whenever possible, perform
service work and adjust- ments with the planter
on the ground. Do Not Modify Planter Unauthorized
modifications to the machine may impair the
function and/or safety and affect machine life.

10Preparing the Tractor
- GENERAL
- IMPORTANT The operating pressure of your trac-
tor must not exceed 15 514 kPa (155.1 bar) (2250
psi). Damage to the planter hydraulic system may
occur if exposed to higher pressure. - Your tractor must be equipped with a hydraulic
cylinder with a 3 x 8 in. (80 x 200 mm) stroke or
larger when - It is used with a 4-row planter equipped with or
without a fertilizer attachment. - It is used with a 6-row planter not equipped with
a fertilizer attachment. - A 6-row planter equipped with a fertilizer
attachment requires a remote hydraulic cylinder
with a 3-1/2 x 8 in. (90 x 200 mm) stroke or
larger. - NOTE All remote hydraulic cylinders must conform
to ASAE - SAE standards. - For complete tractor operating instructions,
refer to your tractor operator's manual.
TIRE INFLATION Inflate the tractor tires as
recommended in the tractor operator's manual.
TRACTOR DRAWBAR Place the drawbar aproximately
17 in. (430 mm) from tne ground and secure in the
center of the tractor.
REAR WHEEL TREAD Set tractor tires (center to
center of tread) at twice the row spacing.
11Preparing the Tractor 7 ROCKSHAFT OPERATING
LEVER HEIGHT STOP (4040, 4240, 4440 and 4640
Tractors) If the tractor rockshaft is
accidentally lowered with a Quik-Coupler hitch on
the tractor, damage can occur to the planter
hitch when turning the tractor. To prevent
accidentally lowering the rockshaft while
operating the planter, install AR60331 rockshaft
height stop. Installation instructions are
provided with the stop.

Tire Inflation Be sure 7.60 x 15 (6 PR) planter
tires are inflated to 280 kPa (2.8 bar) (40 psi)
of air pressure. Lubrication Be sure your
planter has been properly lubricated. Consult the
lubrication charts on pages 80 through 86 for
lubricating instructions, Regular and systematic
lubrication is the best in- surance against
breakdowns and delays. It will help you get
better service ffom your planter and save on your
maintenance costs. Row Widths The 7000 Planter
is available for planting the following row
widths 4 Row Narrow30 in. (76 cm), 32 in. (81
cm), and 34 in. (86 cm) row widths. 4 Row Wid 36
in. (91 cm), 38 in. (97 cm), and 40 in. (102 cm)
row widths. 6 Row Narrow30 in. (76 cm) row width
only. To change the row widths proceed as
foilows Lower the planter (hoppers empty) until
openers rest on the ground. Remove cotter pin (B)
from driver and coupler and re- move drill shaft

15Preparing the Planter 11
Loosen U-bolts, then move all planting units,
starting with inside rows. Place one inside unit
one-half the distance of the desired row width
from the center of the planter frame to the
center of the planting unit. Place other unit at
the desired row width from this unit. Be certain
unit mounting angles are vertical and spaced at
approximately 12-1/2 in. (320 mm). Torque U-bolts
uniformly, to 105 ft-lb. (142 N-m). Insert drill
shaft into driver and coupler and secure with
cotter pin. Check all drive components for
interferences and plant- ing unit openers to
insure seed tubes and openers are free of dirt or
other foreign objects. NOTE If drill shaft does
not align properly with trans- mission shaft,
loosen planting unit drill shaft bearings,
re-alipn shah and tighten bearings.
1612 Preparing the Planter
Jack The jack (bold arrow) should be positioned
on mount near planter hitch clevis for attaching,
detaching, or storage.

Operating Position
Selecting Seed Plates (Plate Seed Hoppers
Only) As growing conditions change from year to
year, the size of the seed may vary. Therefore,
it is quite likely that different seed plates may
be required to plant the same variety of seed
ffom year to year. There are two ways to select
seed plates. One is to follow the recommendation
of the seed supplier and the other is to take a
sample of the seed to be planted to a John Deere
dealer and let him recommend the seed plates.
17Preparing the Planter 13
In either case, the accuracy of the seed plate
selected should be checked when installed in your
planter and operated at the planting speed you
intend to travel. The best check is to plant a
short distance at the desired planting speed and
then stop and dig up the seeds to determine the
actual planting rate. For a given spacing and
travel speed, a 24-cell seed plate revolves
slower than a 16-cell seed plate, result- ing in
better cell fill. It is therefore fecommended
that a 24-cell seed plate be used in all cases
when available. NOTE. See pages 58-60 for
drilling distance conver- sion charts for 16-,
20- and 24-cell seed plales. The following is a
