No-Till and No-Till Precision Seeding System Used with: 3N-3010P and 3N-3020P 3N-3010 and 3N-3020! When you see this symbol, the subsequent instructions and warnings are serious - follow without exception. Your life and the lives of others depend on it! General Information These instructions explain how to install the Veris Drive Option. The Veris Drive is a precision population controller which uses a hydraulic drive to accurately drive the metering system or the feeder cups. These instructions apply to: 120-298A Manual Update Refer to the 30 No-Till or the 30P No-Till operator s manual for detailed information on safely operating, adjusting, troubleshooting and maintaining the Veris Drive. Refer to the parts manual for part identification. 196-248M Operator s Manual 196-248P Parts Manual 196-366M Operator s Manual 196-366P Parts Manual Before You Start Page 9 is a detailed listing of parts included in the package. Use this list to inventory parts received. Tools Required Basic Hand Tools Definitions Right-hand and left-hand as used in this manual are determined by facing the direction the machine will travel while in use unless otherwise stated.

2 Assembly Instructions! CAUTION! Before installing the Precision Population Controller on the seeding system, be sure that the unit is properly supported to avoid injury during installation. Refer to Figure 1 1. Remove contact wheel drive chains on both sides of the unit. Contact Drive Wheel Chain Removed Figure 1 Drive Chain Removed 20033 Refer to Figure 2 2. Remove range drive chains on both sides of the unit. Range Chain Figure 2 Range Drive Chain 20034 Refer to Figure 3 3. Drive out roll pins from drive couplers on both ends of the pivot shaft. Slide shaft couplers toward the center and slide shaft through tongue away from the left-hand drive. Shaft Coupler Pivot Shaft Figure 3 Pivot Shaft and Coupler 20035 120-301M 4/8/2004
3 Refer to Figure 4 4. To mark and drill mounting holes for the controller/motor kit, use the dimensions supplied on page 8. Mark the holes on the left-hand tongue gusset on the mainframe and carefully drill all four holes. Place Template Here Note: It is important that you carefully mark and drill these mounting holes. The lower portion of the drive mount houses the carrier bearing for the pivot shaft. Misalignment will cause operational problems. Figure 4 Hole Chart 20198 Refer to Figure 5 5. Drill holes with either a 17/32 or 9/16 drill bit. 17/32 Holes Figure 5 Left-hand Gusset 20036 4/8/2004 120-301M
4 Refer to Figure 6 6. Mount controller/motor kit to the gusset with four flanged 1/2 x 1 1/4 bolts and 1/2 flanged lock nuts, do not tighten at this time. Leave hydraulic hoses and harness coiled until later in the assembly. Controller/Motor Kit Mounting Bolts Pivot Shaft Figure 6 Controller/Motor 20037 Refer to Figure 7 7. Slide the pivot shaft towards the installed drive mount until shaft is a few inches through the bearing hanger. Slide on one lock collar, bearing and bearing flangettes. Install the 19 tooth sprocket and second lock collar. Slide shaft back into position, then slide couplers back into position. Check to see if shaft is centered in the bearing hanger opening. Loosely attach bearings flangettes, then tighten the four mounting bolts on the controller/motor. Tighten bearing flangettes. Note: Shaft should now turn freely by hand with no binding at the shaft couplers. If this is not the case, the drive mount is not properly positioned on the gusset. To correct this, enlarge the mounting holes to allow the mount to be moved forward or backward to properly align the mount with the pivot shaft. Once the mount is properly aligned with the pivot shaft, reinstall the shaft couplers with 1/4 x 1 3/4 bolts and 1/4 lock nuts. Bearing Figure 7 Pivot Shaft Sprocket Lock Collar 20038 120-301M 4/8/2004
5 Refer to Figure 8 8. Slide the first lock collar installed on the pivot shaft against the bearing and tighten. Slide the 19 tooth sprocket installed on the pivot shaft against the bearing. Slide the second lock collar installed on the pivot shaft against the sprocket and tighten. 9. Install chain idler and chain. Idler Note: In order for the motor to have the correct ratio to the seed meters you must set the range and the transmission sprockets. Figure 8 Chain and Chain Idler 20039 Refer to Figure 9 10. For Precision drill: Set the range sprockets with a 30 tooth sprocket for the driver, and a 30 tooth sprocket for the driven, on both sides of the unit. Reinstall chains and tighten the idlers. 11. For Feeder Cup drill: Set the range sprockets to drive type 4 on both sides of the unit. Reinstall chains and tighten the idlers. Figure 9 Range Sprockets 20040 Refer to Figure 10 12. Set the transmission sprockets with a 28 tooth sprocket for the driver, and a 25 tooth sprocket for the driven, on both sides of the unit. Note: Be sure to set both the left-hand and righthand range and transmission sprockets. Once they are set they will not need to be changed. Note: For Feeder Cup drill there is no transmission sprocket change. Figure 10 Transmission Sprockets 20041 4/8/2004 120-301M
6 Refer to Figure 11 13. Remove the left wheel from the left-hand contact wheel shaft and slide the shaft to the right allowing clearance for the speed sensor disc and sensor bracket. Install the sensor bracket with one bearing onto the shaft. Install the speed sensor disc with one lock collar on each side. Do not tighten lock collars. 14. Remove the forward bolt from the outside bearing and replace it with a 5/16" x 1 3/4" bolt and 5/16" nut and tighten. Place the spacer on the bolt then mount the sensor bracket on the bolt. Secure bracket with a 5/16" nut. 15. Screw the sensor into the sensor mount until there is a.030 clearance. Lock sensor in place with the jam nut. Move the sensor disc so it aligns with the sensor and secure it in place with the lock collars. Route the cable along the contact wheel arm and up to the controller/motor mount. Repeat steps 13 through 15 to install the Veris sensor and sensor bracket on the right-hand drive. 16. Relocate the seed monitor speed sensor to the bracket installed on the left-hand drive. Properly adjust clearance. Tie both cables to the contact wheel arm, and make sure they are routed to prevent pinching. Note: You can not leave the seed monitor speed sensor on the pivot shaft or the sensor will be reading motor drive speed instead of field speed. It is not necessary to move the sensor disc for the seed monitor. The seed monitor can use the same sensor disc as the Veris sensor. Lock Collars Figure 11 Speed Sensor and Bracket Left-Hand Side Seed Sensor Speed Sensor Sensor Disc 20042 Note: After relocating the seed monitor speed sensor it will be necessary to calibrate the monitor. Refer to the DICKEY-john manual for monitor distance calibration instructions. 120-301M 4/8/2004
7 Refer to Figure 12 17. Connect sensor cable to short leads on sensor module. Either cable can be connected to either lead. 18. Uncoil hydraulic hoses and main harness and tie ends together. Feed a fish tape or a wire from the front of the tongue and pull the hoses and cable through the main tongue and route through the hose carrier on front of the tongue. 19. Install the plastic hose label, P/N 817-348C, to hose with extension symbol on the hose running to filter (marked P) on control module. Use the yellow cable tie to identify this as a motor hose. Attach motor return hose (marked T) on the side showing the retract symbol. Run tie strap through number that will correspond to the valve 2 through 4 that the drive will be connected to. Console Figure 12 Sensor Module Sensor Module 20043 Refer to Figure 13 20. Install the console in a convenient location on a side window glass. Make sure the glass is clean. Moisten cups and press firmly onto the glass. To remove, pull tab on suction cup. 21. Connect power port adaptor cable to the terminal on the console. 22. Route the power and communication cables through the cab access hole and connect to the appropriate terminals on the console.
